Cell was a rock group originating from New York, active between 1990 and 1995. Although frequently categorized as grunge due to the period in which they performed, their style is also identified as alternative or college rock. Supported by Thurston Moore of Sonic Youth, they issued a 7-inch single through his label Ecstatic Peace!. This release featured a bassist named 'Letha' (presumably Letha Rodman from Ruby Falls) and included the track "Stratosphere," which was later re-recorded for their first album after signing with DGC Records, a subsidiary of Geffen.
