'''Ice''' is an [[industrial music|industrial]] band formed by guitarist [[Justin Broadrick]] and saxophonist/singer [[Kevin Martin (English musician)|Kevin Martin]].
Their first album, ''Under The Skin'', was somewhat similar to the industrial rock of Broadrick's [[Godflesh]], but with a more experimentalist bent, notably via Martin's [[free jazz]]-influenced saxophone.
By ''Bad Blood'', their second album, the band had absorbed a great deal of [[hip hop music|hip hop]] influence, and nearly all the songs featured contributions from guests well-known in [[underground rap]]. However, the experimentalism continued, with singer [[Blixa Bargeld]] of legendary experimentalists [[Einsturzende Neubauten]] appearing as well, often alongside the rappers. According to critic Ned Raggett[http://www.allmusic.com/cg/amg.dll?p=amg&sql=10:fbfwxqyjldhe], the experiments aren't always successful, but he credits the band for expanding their sound.
