LUXT was a United States-based industrial metal group originating from Sacramento, California, founded by multi-instrumentalists Anna Christine and Erie Loch, with Loch responsible for the songwriting.
History
Established in Sacramento, California in 1995 by Anna Christine and Erie Loch, LUXT released their initial album, Jezebel Thirteen Three, in 1996 under their independent label Chalkhead Records. The following year, they partnered with 21st Circuitry to issue their sophomore record, Disrepair, and in 1998 followed up with their third release, Razing Eden. This third album marked a progression in production standards and emphasized catchier melodies and hooks, thereby broadening the band's commercial appeal.
In 2000, the band once again utilized Chalkhead Records to independently launch Chromasex Monkeydrive. Their fifth studio effort, American Beast, came out in 2003 through Blackliner Records and attained significant recognition by charting on three of CMJ's listings: reaching number nineteen on "Loud Rock: College," number thirty-two on "Loud Rock: Crucial Spins," and number ninety-one on the "CMJ Retail 100." After ten years of producing music across various independent labels, LUXT officially dissolved on April 15, 2005.
