Behind The Tracks: Joke Addiction - Fading Out (Single) (2024)

Joke Addiction, a hard-hitting rock band from Siracusa, Sicily, signed to Volcano Records, is making waves with their gritty sound ahead of their upcoming European tour. Their latest track, Fading Out, composed by Andrea Campisi, Carmelo Di Natale, and Angelo Rizza, delves into the alienating effects of today’s socio-political systems, exploring themes of personal and interpersonal isolation drawn from the band’s own experiences. Blending influences from Alice in Chains, Velvet Revolver, and Black Sabbath, Joke Addiction delivers a raw, groove-heavy sound that combines the rebellious spirit of hard rock with a heavy dose of introspection. Founded in 2013, the band has earned a reputation for their dynamic stage presence, reaching the finals of Sanremo Rock twice and building a loyal following with their mix of original songs and iconic covers. Now, as they work on new material, Joke Addiction continues to evolve, channeling their Sicilian roots into a sound that’s unapologetically bold and authentic.
