A New January (ANJ) pulls its influences from a wide variety of genres including electronica, dance (IDM/Electro), and rock. Most notable comparisons have included bands such as Depeche Mode, Underworld, Nine Inch Nails, Curve, and Placebo. 2007 saw the unveiling of ANJ's latest studio effort, Self-Medicate. This release, the first to be entirely produced from concept to final mixes at Negative Nine, represents a more raw and even darker sound than their previous album, Cold and Naked – an evolution of the band's sonic signature. Heavy electronic elements intermingle with distorted guitars and mangled audio, all the while retaining a certain pop sensibility.
