Cell 7 (stylized as [ cell 7 ]) is an electronic industrial band formed in Perth, Western Australia. Starting in the early 1990s, Cell 7 was initially influenced by IDM artists such as Autechre and Aphex Twin as well as the more mainstream sounds of Depeche Mode, the Cure and Nine Inch Nails. The band has been referred to as "endustrial"[1] in sound, possibly to indicate the distinction between Cell 7 and the normal perception of the industrial genre. The band is a duo consisting of Nick Mueller and Paul Harrison, with occasional additional live performers.
The name Cell 7 is a reference to biological cells rather than incarceration, and the square brackets are part of the official moniker.
