Namanax is an electronic experimental-noise group. The group consists of three members, Bill Yurkiewicz, the original member and creator of Namanax, and in later albums James Plotkin and Kipp Johnson, also members of Solarus. The music of Namanax largely consists of layered electronic noise cascading over occasional samples. Through their music, the artists state that their goal is to attempt to reconstruct old B-movie soundtracks, and they cite many old horror B-movies as their influences.

The group has been recording since 1993, when their first album, Multi-Phase Electrodynamics was released. They release all their albums on Release Entertainment. Despite being inactive since 1998, the band maintains a cult following.^{[citation needed]}
