As JUNKIE XL, Dutch born musician, producer, remixer and ne-man band Tom Holkenborg has become synonymous with electronic dance music. With the arrival of his fifth proper studio album, 2008's invigorating Booming Back at You, the club culture icon and L.A. transplant has crafteda disc that not only builds on his beloved back catalogue but is also inspired by today's vibrant new school of dance music and matches the momentum and enthusiasm of his notorious live performances. Musically never comfortable in one place, his new work highlights surprises for his fans. In many ways Booming Back at You marks a return to Holkenborg's dance-rock roots, as evidenced by his Lauren Rocket propelled cover of Siouxsie & the Banshees modern rock classic "Cities In Dust." After performing it live to the delight of crowds at his gigs, and learning that it had never been reworked, Junkie was inspired to revive the song.
