IAMX - FAULT LINES² [+6 BONUS REMIXES] DIGICD

YOUTUBE ►

IAMX breathes new spiritual life into his hyper-emotional electronic project with the new album, the follow up to the aggressive cult machinations heard on the 2023 release ‘Fault Lines¹’. This sequel is half mutant, half prom queen sister with throbbing bass monsters “Neurosymphony” and “Infinite Fear Jets” fading ethereally into tracks like ‘The Ocean’ which features the gorgeous vocal talents of Hafdis Huld in the Icelandic intro and outro. This album is IAMX at the heights of beauty and despair, and is punctuated throughout by its “no fucks left to give” quirkiness. The psychological depths found within the music reflect a wisdom and acceptance hinted at in previous albums, but fully formed here. With trials turned into superpowers, neuroses now commitments, and radical self-love the context and relief of self realization. The vocal performance mirrors the depth of this wisdom, with X sounding both dramatic and relaxed with a self assured effortlessness that comes only with experience. Each vocal note contains the perfect amount of grit, squeal or breath; demonstrating a confidence from years on stage and in the studio which drives in the feeling of intense intimacy to the listener. The disunion and disharmony of the universe are on full chaotic display on this album. With beauty riding dirt, triplets riding fours, and anxiety riding eroticism. The fractures in the soundscapes becoming Fault Lines.

The CD also features high level remixes by Midge Ure (Ultravox), Solar Fake, Neuroticfish, X Video AND MORE!
