Addicted2Fiction

Band,
Electronic and Rock

Addicted2Fiction is an all-girl electronic darkwave band that hail from Brooklyn, NY but are now based in Los Angeles, CA. Conceived of by Hellskiss and Aisha in July 2002, Addicted2Fiction's propulsive electronic instrumentation utilizes anything within reach to create a unique, dark, undeniably evocative sound. Their infectious songs are punctuated by addictive retro-pop industrial hooks, fierce guitar and bass riffs, sampled "found sounds", multi-layered drum tracks, haunting synth layers, processed vocals, and a myriad of eerily compelling effects. They also incorporate live video projection into their performances where video artist Mustafa Bhagat, who shot & edited A2F's video, "All Signs Point To Yes", adds compelling imagery to the mix. Prior to founding A2F, Hellskiss and Aisha were core members of Gül, Redhot Secret, and new wave punk quartet Crowns On 45, whose music was featured in "Better Luck Tomorrow" (jointly released by MTV andParamount Films). Chris, also a member of the innovative LA-based band, Squab, joined Addicted2Fiction winter of 2004. Her magnetic style compliments A2F's music and rounds out their live performances. As their enthusiastic audiences everywhere can readily attest to, Hellskiss, Aisha & Chris combine their diverse influences and inspirations with prodigious musicianship in an entirely original way, updating, reprocessing and twisting seemingly familiar sounds to make them very much their own.
