Search - Add N to (X) :: Add Insult to Injury

Add Insult to Injury, the third album from analogue electro-cuties Add N to (X), finds the London trio in as mischievous a mood as ever. The opening track, "Adding N to X," sizzles along merrily on its old-school synthesizers with some assist from ex-Faith Healers drummer Joe Dilworth, while "Brothel Charge" rampages like children let loose in the Art of Noise toy shop. This is a retro-futurist delight as Ann Shenton's eerie theremin and Steve Claydon's Korg Micro-Preset hearken back to a time when the future was shiny, silver, and bright. And surely nobody will be able to resist the robotic Fat Les chants of "Monster Bobby." --Jerry Thackray
