Bio
Chicago's I:Scintilla (pronounced "eye-sin-til-uh") returns in 2010 with their new album Dying & Falling. The 11-track collection finds the band redefining their sound once again and pushing genre rules by the wayside. In addition to their metal-infused electronica signature, the quartet still finds room for synthpop, trip-hop, and indie electro explorations. The album marks the fourth straight collaboration with Wade Alin (The Atomica Project, Christ Analogue) and his slick production style. Dying & Falling is also available as a limited edition box set that features a bonus disc containing exclusive new tracks, alternate versions, and club remixes. The album is set for release in November 2010 through Belgian electro label Alfa Matrix. The band is led by dynamic frontwoman Brittany Bindrim, whose words, melodies, and soaring vocals have resonated with a devoted and growing fanbase. Rounding out the lineup are Jim Cookas (guitar/programming), Vincent Grech (drums), and Brent Leitner (guitar/programming). Over the years the band has established a solid reputation as a live act with their high energy shows that feature a mix of rock and electronic elements. I:Scintilla formed in 2003 and quickly established an affinity for pushing musical boundaries while maintaining pop sensibilities. The result was their self-released debut album, The Approach (2004). Through relentless promotion and a strong online presence, the group soon attracted attention from established indie labels and eventually signed with Alfa Matrix in early 2006. Their first set of releases included the EP Havestar (2006) and full-length album Optics (2007). Both efforts managed to chart on Germany's Deutsche Alternative Charts (DAC) with the former reaching #13 on the singles chart and the latter #6 on the albums chart. 2009 saw the release of the DAC-charting EP Prey On You that featured three new studio tracks and five club remixes. Other notable accomplishments include festival appearances in the United States and Europe, most notably a 2007 performance at Germany's Wave Gotik Treffen, the world's largest dark arts and music festival. They have also been featured in nearly every alternative magazine in Germany and several in England, Belgium, and Italy. In 2008 the band hit the road with darkwave mainstays The Cruxshadows for an extensive three-month U.S. tour that brought their live show to every corner of the country. 2011 is shaping up to be an exciting year for I:Scintilla as well. In addition to promoting their new album Dying & Falling, the quartet has plans to continue touring and hopefully find time to start work on their fourth album. -
