About

Some musicians are meant to be heard but not seen - merely an auditory experience and nothing more. Berlin's IAMX, on the other hand, isn't merely a band... it's an event - a full-on aural and visual attack with the dynamic and inimitable Chris Corner (of Sneaker Pimps) leading the charge. With the European marketplace going bonkers for his blend of dramatic synth-rock, darkness-infused pop, and intricately-constructed indie dance, IAMX has been headlining festivals in Austria, Belgium, CZRep, Poland, etc. and sharing the stage with Placebo, Franz Ferdinand, and The Cardigans among others.

Like an 80s electro glam soundtrack to a Jan Svankmajer film or an almost unfathomable hybrid between the sexy swagger of Prince and the cool and collected respectability of Roxy Music, IAMX mixes Chris' erotically-charged vocals with music that is, at once, frantic yet controlled. With such strikingly cinematic songs as the waltzy drama of"President" to the percussive sexual predatory dirtiness of "The Negative Sex" to the indelibly infectious synthpop of the sweeping "Spit It Out", The Alternative is exactly just that - the alternative to the cookie-cutter music scene that dominates the airwaves. Considering the rabid reception he receives from his performances, it seems it's time for the masses to latch onto The Alternative.

Gagosian Liga, Dec 24, 2007:

,,Wir alle bewundern den flitterübersäten Akrobaten, der im pudrigen Licht mit klassischer Anmut auf dem Drahtseil balanciert; aber wie viel mehr Kunst gehört dazu, in Vogelscheuchenkleidern auf einem schlaffgespannten Seil den grotesken Betrunkenen zu mimen! Gerade ich sollte das wissen." (Vladimir Nabokov)

Vielen Dank für die Freundschaft und musikalische Grüße aus München!
