Blaqk Audio

Already punk-pop superstars with the band AFI, Davey Havok and Jade Puget somehow found time to dabble in industrial-inspired electronica and write and record under the moniker Blaqk Audio. Ditching guitars for synths and software, the duo experiment with four on the floor grooves, Depeche Mode-like arrangements, EBM and downtempo balladry on their 2007 debut, CexCells. Rhapsody Editor Stephanie Benson talked to vocalist Havok about the group's origins, writing for Blaqk Audio vs. AFI, where you might find him hanging out in the Bay Area and being voted the World's Sexiest Vegetarian.
