Addicted

 

Addicted is the twelfth studio album by Canadian musician Devin Townsend, and the second of four albums in The Devin Townsend Project series. The album was released on November 17, 2009 on Townsend's independent record label HevyDevy Records. The album was written and produced by Townsend, and features Ryan Van Poederooyen, Brian Waddell, Mark Cimino, and Anneke van Giersbergen.

According to Townsend, Addicted is an album of "melodic" and "danceable" music but is "much heavier" than his previous albums. Townsend has compared the album's songwriting to his more accessible songs, such as "Life" from Ocean Machine: Biomech (1997), "Stagnant" from Terria (2001), and "Material" from Physicist (2000). The album's production style was directly influenced by Nickelback's 2008 album Dark Horse. Townsend has quipped that "Some parts of it sound likeMeshuggah, some parts of it sound like Boney M. Addicted includes a new version of the song "Hyperdrive" from Townsend's 2007 album Ziltoid the Omniscient with lead vocals by van Giersbergen, who has performed a cover of the song with her current band Agua de Annique. "Resolve" was "directly influenced by The Wildhearts" and it bears a resemblance to "Vainilla Radio" from The Wildhearts Must Be Destroyed Unlike. Townsend's previous albums, which were usually in open C tuning, most of the songs on Addicted were played in open B tuning. "Universe in a Ball" was played in open B♭, "Hyperdrive" in open C♯ (to accommodate the vocal range of van Giersbergen, as opposed to the version of "Hyperdrive" that appeared on the album Ziltoid The Omniscient which was recorded in a different key), and "The Way Home" in open C.
