Paul Taylor is one half of Sutcliffe No More, formerly Sutcliffe Jugend. He is and was also a member of Inertia, Bodychoke and Slaves No More. Most of his music has its background in the power electronics scene that evolved in Great Britain around the label Come Organisation and the group Whitehouse. Power electronics is a style of noise music that typically consists of static, screeching waves of feedback, analogue synthesizers making sub-bass pulses or high frequency squealing sounds; with screamed and distorted vocals. The genre is noted for its influence from industrial. It is generally atonal, like most noise music and also features a lack of conventional melodies or rhythms. To match its sonic excess, power electronics relies heavily upon extreme thematic and visual content: whether in lyrics, album art, or live performance actions.

Paul played his first show as a solo artist in Vienna in spring 2024, presenting the dark ambient album Submerged (still available from Klanggalerie) live. In October he performed solo in Italy presenting music from this new album, Exposure. Paul describes the album as what he does in the studio when not working with Kevin Tomkins. A lot is recorded, but very little sees the light of day. Exposure is more Power Electronics than Submerged, but still different to Sutcliffe No More.
