IAMX is a British indie, {{alternative|Rock}} and {{electronic|Music}} act consisting of Chris Corner, the band and occasionally his ex-partner, Sue Denim, of Robots In Disguise fame. IAMX began after Music/SneakerPimps' fourth album was shelved and Chris decided to work on his own music instead of focusing on fixing the album. 2004 saw the release of IAMX's debut album, ''Kiss + Swallow'', which, with the help of Sue, dealt with topics such as sex, destructive relationships, sex, lies, sex , the destructive and ultimately collapsing nature of modern society, and for good measure, sex. ''Kiss + Swallow'' was followed in 2006 by ''The Alternative'', a DarkerAndEdgier album that delved into surrealist imagery, political dissertations, mental instability, and unstable relationships. After ''The Alternative'' came ''Kingdom of Welcome Addiction'', wherein Chris discusses modern society, incest, the doomed nature of the modern world, alcoholism and other fun topics. The album also had the help of "My Secret Friend", a collaborative effort between Chris and Music/ImogenHeap. While the song itself was amazing, the video, which featured some rather attractive feats of cross dressing, was acclaimed by nearly all who saw it, and was promptly ignored by everyone else. IAMX's next album, ''Volatile Times'', dealt with many of themes previously mentioned (mainly political instability and dysfunctional relationships) and added new topics like probable insanity, atheism and bigotry to the mix.

* DreamTeam: Chris teamed up with The Strike Boys to make the rather exceptional song "Chemical Princess" and with Moonbootica to make the rather strange song "Pretty Little Angel".
** Aesthetic Perfection's remix of "Kingdom of Welcome Addiction" is haunting.
