The Us Electric is an electronic music project consisting of members Colby Parson and Susan Morse. The music is characteristically dark with songs primarily inspired by adverse psychological states. The Us Electric\'s eclectic repertoire includes compositions exhibiting elements taken from a wide range of musical styles including: Industrial, IDM, Electroclash, Experimental, and Darkwave.
Recovery was the first Us Electric album. The Us Electric started this project hoping to incorporate some of the analogue sounds of the past with the newer sequencers and vocal processors.
The band incorporated the influence of psychedelia with the developments of electronica and the industrial genre along with many of their own innovations to create a highly eclectic style of industrial music. The Us Electric used traditional instruments in combination with a wide variety of vocal and digital processors, drum machines, synthesizers and digital sequencers to create its unique sound.
The Us Electric has been inspired by a number of bands and musicians over the years. The influence of such great industrial artists as Bauhaus, Skinny Puppy, Tear Garden, Gary Numan and Nivek Ogre is evident in their music.
