Add Insult to Injury is the fourth album by British electronic musicians Add N to (X). It was released on October 16, 2000 by Mute Records. The album is essentially two mini-albums fused together, as half was written and performed by Ann Shenton and Steve Claydon, while the other half was written and performed by Barry 7, with occasional help from Dean Honer from The All Seeing I.
