Celldweller is a Detroit, Michigan-based Electronic rock project that was created by multi-instrumentalist Klayton, former frontman and songwriter of the bands Circle of Dust and Argyle Park. Celldweller's music is multi-faceted, often labeled electronic rock and more commonly being described as a combination of metal and trance. Celldweller songs have frequently appeared in movies, trailers, television shows, and video games. Klayton had gained a devoted cult following in the mid 90s because of his industrial metal band Circle of Dust. After the dissolution of that band, Klayton concurrently released both a posthumous collection of reworked Circle of Dust leftovers titled Disengage and an album for a new project, Angeldust, created in conjunction with illusionist Criss Angel. Both albums demonstrated Klayton's shift away from industrial metal and towards more goth and darkwave influences, incorporating richer electronic instrumentation and greater emphasis on melody. This change in style was a major step toward the sound that would come to define Celldweller's output. Klayton began demoing songs for the Celldweller project in 1998/1999 and released a limited edition EP of three early Celldweller demos and two solo trance tracks, which quickly sold out. Klayton and Criss Angel parted ways in 2000 after three albums' worth of material had been completed, allowing Klayton to devote all of his time to Celldweller.
