Executive Slacks
The Executive Slacks were an industrial/goth band formed in the 1980s in Philadelphia (USA) and were fronted by lead Matt Marrello (guitar and vocals). He was replaced in 1987 by Athan Maroulis until 1991 when the band broke up. The other band members were Bobbie Rae, John Young and Stuart Levy.

Philadelphia's Executive Slacks started out playing a
searing combination of electronics, guitar/vocals and
percussion. On the trio's first EP, Matt Marello sings with
hysterical urgency and unnerving calm while spewing
white-hot guitar noise out over steady, pulsing Residents-
like backing complete with found tape noises. The impact is
gratingly industrial but also emotional — it isn't the
sheer assault that makes you uneasy, it's the whole
demented concoction.
