No Alternative Records

Iodine

• Iodine is: Jay Joyce (Bedlam) on guitar/vocals; Chris Fainstein (Bedlam) on bass; and Brad Pemberton on drums.

• A talented (and sometimes maniacal) guitarist, Jay has played on albums for Iggy Pop, Lisa Germano, The Wall Flowers; and producers T-Bone Burnet, Malcolm Burn and Tony Berg.

• On the ironically titled Maximum Joy, their debut release, Iodine take dark lyrics, oozing guitars and relenting bass lines and buries it all under deep layers of sonic treatment.

• Iodine's frenzied, seemingly posessed live shows have produced a growing number of rabid fans and glowing (sometimes fearful) reviews, causing one reviewer to comment, "Iodine stormed the stage like someone was going to kill their firstborn If they didn't produce.”
