Artist Twitter Account

I have decided to name my band 'Electric Addiction' and have created a Twitter account to coincide with the project. I chose to use 'Electric' in the name because it is a powerful, striking concept, thus reflecting the band's personality and sound, as well as the fact that electric guitars play an important part in the music. Electricity permits the creation of dramatic effects such as lightning, once again reflecting the band's experimental side. 'Addiction' is "the continued use of a psychoactive drug, or the repetition of a behaviour despite adverse consequences". Withdrawal symptoms include anxiety, irritability and hallucinations. This touches on the characteristics of the band and the kind of style their songwriting permits, touching on elements of psychedelia. The song I have chosen to use, "Where Is My Mind" perfectly illustrates such things and would not be the only song of its kind to feature on an 'Electric Addiction' album.
I plan to use the band's Twitter account to promote and publicise information about the artist, upcoming events, news etc. and will use this method of social networking to illustrate the production process of the music video, album artwork and digipak.
