This London-based pop-rock foursome is composed of vocalist Mark Aston, guitarist Nikolaj Juel, bassist James Denham and drummer Luke Bullen. The band formed in Cambridge, England, where longtime friends Aston and Denham first began honing their sound while locked up in the cellar listening to vintage Led Zeppelin on vinyl.
While techno and electronica are swarming the British airwaves, Addict believes that old-fashioned arena rock is making a comeback, and their 1998 V2 Records release, Stones, shows a reverence toward British rockers of days gone by.
"Over the last 18 months or so in England, rock is something that's become credible again," says Bullen. "It's not like people have turned away from the dance scene, but there's room for rock as well now."
Their major label debut was produced by David Bianco (Teenage Fanclub) and recorded in Los Angeles, a slice of America that the members of Addict admit they've developed an "addiction" for.
