IAMX, the genre-defying solo project of musician and composer Christopher Corner, co-founder and former member of the breakthrough trip hop act Sneaker Pimps, has built a passionate and truly genuine following over the years. Recognized for delivering immersive live performances, the project combines live instrumentation with punk energy, dark and elegant graphics, as well expressive, emotionally driven vocals.
The new darkwave/electronic-based single, Artificial Innocence, debuted as a B-side on the tour-exclusive release UNMASK. Since then, it has matured into a tense, synth-driven dark number that embodies IAMX's trademark intensity and atmospheric edge.
The song explores power dynamics, self-erasure, and the psychological impact of succumbing to a dominant existential force.
