808 State - ex:el (LP)

ex:el is the third studio album by 808 State, released on 4th March 1991 by ZTT Records. In contrast to the band's previous work, the album features more catchy melodies and heavier acid techno beats and percussion, "embracing earlier flirtations with hip-hop and industrial music."

The album also features the guest vocals of Bernard Sumner of Joy Division and New Order, who sings on Spanish Heart. In addition, Björk sings on Qmart and Ooops, and is credited with co-writing both; this album marked the start of a long-running working relationship between Björk and Graham Massey.
