And now for the latest from our ol' muckers Add n to (X), an lp and cd entitled 'Loud like Nature'. This doesn't seem to be a huge departure from the norm, perhaps on a more glam tip than the last and certainly not as dark as earlier outings but still retaining thier avant-garde moog torturing sensibilities. I see this being a real grower and could be considered for constant rotation on the office stereo when the urge for a fetish party enters your mind. On Mute as per usual for this freaky bunch!"Loud Like Nature", their fourth long player and the follow up to 2000's "Add Insult To Injury", features 13 brand new tracks including the recent single 'Take Me To Your Leader'. Add N To (X) have delivered their finest collection to date and proved, yet again, that they're an edgier, more extrovert and coherently schizoid band than any other functioning band around.
Recorded by Ann Shenton, Barry 7 and Steve Claydon over the past twelve months in London, New York and Sheffield, the album features contributions from Pulp guitarist Richard Hawley, J.P. Buckle (National Bandit), drummers Joe Dilworth & Goldfrapp's Rowan Oliver plus long time collaborator, Dean Honer. There is also a guest appearance from legendary American producer Kim Fowley who provides the spoken word piece to the eerie 'Invasion Of The Polaroid People'.
"Loud Like Nature" is unlike any other album you will hear this year. It hints at everything from hip hop to '50s rock 'n' roll and yet never settles on a recognisable sound. From the glamtronic opener 'Total All Out Water' to the frenzied, rock 'n' roll of 'Sheez Mine', the p-funk surrealism of 'Party Bag' and the pastoral analogue suite 'Up The Punks', the stomping single 'Take Me To Your Leader' and synth thrasher 'Large Number', the album gathers up the band's history and spins it into gorgeously twisted nuggets.
