[+]Celldweller – the concept born from experiences of personal and cultural bondage along with the creator’s near 24-7 dwelling in his former basement studio. Klayton, the man behind the machine, originally created the moniker as a producer pseudonym. However, after retiring his previous band, the 90’s cult industrial act Circle of Dust, he adopted Celldweller as his defining outlet.
Developed as an agent of contrast, Celldweller combines the electronic and the organic, darkness and beauty, aggression against sensuality, with the ability to find its home in the mosh pit as easily as on the dj’s turntable. The debut album ranges from the guitar-based electronic rock of “Switchback” and “I Believe You” to the unique blending of heavily distorted guitars and aggression with drum & bass and trance in “The Last Firstborn” and “Own Little World.”
