Album Description
If you ever doubted the lascivious intent of Sheffield's Add N To X, the title of their third album lays it out explicitly. Coming ever closer to the ultimate biomechanical coupling of (wo)man and machine, the group verses synthesized seductions in the mechanical language of love with ripping theremin warble, live percussion, and atom-age melodies. As evidenced by the video for the fabulously cyber-sleazy single, "Metal Fingers In My Body," which features an animated nymphet and a randy robot doing the deed, it's clear that Add N To X has certain prurient amusements in mind.

AVANT HARD trots out one lewd groove after another, with a single-mindedness that makes these cybersexual pursuits entertaining rather than perverse. Add N To X cruises for wares on the streets of "Robot New York" and fantasizes about tantric positions even the Kama Sutra must have overlooked on the aggressive "Buckminster Fuller." The down n' dirty percolations of "Fyuz" suggest that Barry Smith, Ann Shenton, and Steven Claydon all have volumes of POPULAR MECHANICS stashed under their mattresses. What a curious crew.
