IAMX is the solo project of Chris Corner; a UK songwriter, multi instrumentalist, singer, record producer and video artist. Corner was also a founding member of the electro/trip hop band Sneaker Pimps. IAMX started life in 2004 with the release of the debut album 'Kiss+Swallow'. Considered an underground classic it shaped the unique 'Glam Noir' IAMX sound and paved the way for 4 more cult albums; The Alternative, Kingdom of Welcome Addiction, Volatile Times, and The Unified Field. The creation of this new record, called Metanoia, was initially overshadowed by a big change in Chris' life. "There was a point when I believed I would never make another record," explains Chris, concerning IAMX's sudden break from recording and touring a few years ago due to chronic insomnia. "I associated my career with everything that was hurting me, but slowly I managed to filter out the poison and get back to what I really love." Chris has now put the final caresses to his upcoming sixth IAMX album. "I am proud and exhilarated to announce the creation of the new album, and ecstatic my musical bastard child has got this far. There is a simplicity to the sound that takes me back to my earlier work. It is purely electronic, lustful dystopian Man versus Machine." Like an electro glam soundtrack to a Jan Svankmajer film, IAMX - Metanoia mixes Corner's erotically charged dynamic vocals with fresh intricate electronic production, melancholia and piercing lyrics. Music that is as brutal as it is emotional.
