History

Liquid Sex Decay was formed by musicians Scott Morgan and David York from the band Apparatus, which dissolved in 1995.

[5] The duo wanted to continue experimenting fusing ambient, techno, industrial and electronic music while moving away from a guitar dominated sound. [6] [7] [8] Later that year the band released a cover of Angelo Badalamenti's score to Twin Peaks on the various artists album TV Terror: Felching a Dead Horse by Re-Constriction Records. [9] [10]
