Fantastic debut from a talented band.

Addict's debut album sounds wise beyond its years. It's the sort of album where almost any track could have been lifted for release as a single. Mark Aston's voice is amazing, and the strength of his lyrics is astounding. Nikolai Juel's skills on guitar mean he can make the most tender or jagged sounds with ease, which add great depth to each track. "Nobody Knows", "All Change" and "Caned" rock like there's no tomorrow, whilst "Red Bird" and "Teenage Angel" show a more emotional side. Even this superb album cannot describe the superb live experience of Addict though, as twice as much heart and soul is apparent when they play the live set. Oh, and they dedicated "Monster Side" to me at one gig as I was wearing one of their T-shirts right in front of Mark! The best is definitely yet to come.... I'm already Addict-ed!
