Clan of Xymox

If you want to step into a little bit of a time warp then Clan Of Xymox is definitely the band that will orchestrate that experience for you, right down to their image and their presentation on stage. Their music takes the form of a sort of synthesizer driven gothic rock, which they have adhered to for the last thirty years.

With a bank of keyboards with drum triggers to trigger a variety of what would predominantly be 16th hi-hat beats a bass and a couple of guitars, Clan of Xymox walk out on the stage to perform a set made up of some dark and eerie ethereal noises, making quite an impression on this festival audience this evening, who soak up the music before them, and in turn dance along to these heavy beats. “The Host of Seraphim” which is still one of their biggest songs to date makes the audience sing along at an amicable volume. Their sound is such a minor sounding collection of beats and melodies that interweave to make a very intriguing pop sound.
