Editor's note

I Am X, Chris Corner's electro-industrial project

A Los Angeles-based band formed in 2003, known for dark, emotional electronic music.

For a good sense of their sound, try 'Skin Vision' or 'This Will Make You Love Again.' They're both pretty representative of what I Am X does.

I Am X carved out a specific lane in electro-industrial music, with songs like 'Nightlife' blending heavy beats and melancholic vocals. Their debut album 'The Alternative' set a tone that stuck, and they've kept at it without chasing trends. It's a project that feels consistent in its own world, even if it never broke big.

Chris Corner started I Am X in Los Angeles in 2003 after leaving Sneaker Pimps. The lineup has shifted around him over the years, with musicians like Dave Wesling and Tom Clarke coming in at times. Records from 'The Alternative' to 'Alive in New Light' have stayed in that same sonic territory.

The music leans into electro-industrial territory, with Corner handling the vocals and songwriting. The lineup has shifted around him over time, with musicians like Dave Wesling, Lee Smee, and Tom Clarke contributing at various points.

Their debut album, 'The Alternative,' set the tone with its mix of industrial beats and melancholic vocals. Later records like 'Alive in New Light' and 'Water & Fire' continued in a similar vein, exploring themes of love and loss. Songs such as 'Skin Vision,' 'Nightlife,' and 'This Will Make You Love Again' are characteristic of their sound.
