Press Release Their recent strong 4-track EP "The Business" absolutely made us want to hear more from XMH's new chemistry of sounds! Well, they now throw their 4th studio release "In Your Face"! While opening songs like "The Business" and "Product" strongly confirm the Dutch band's characteristic aggrotech assaults of uptempo harsh elektro, this new album quickly reveals that XMH has reached the next level with a more mature and polished production work thanks also to the helping experienced pair of ears of producer Len Lemeire (IMPLANT, 32CRASH, UNTER NULL, DUNKELWERK, ANNE CLARK, etc.), but also with the intelligent addition of carrying refined virulent melodies reinforced by female backing vocals from Isa Garcia perfectly matching with Benjamin Samson's powerful growls. "In Your Face" adds diversity and grandeur to the successful repertoire of XMH. While remaining faithful to their characteristic trademark sound, they also show they can shine on more downtempo trance and future-pop influenced songs like "Great And Unfortunate Things" or the poignant and almost orchestral and menacing "Falling Te...

Press Release Dark elektro crowds beware: XMH have overrun the barricades and will grab you by the throat! While they are currently putting the last touch to their 4th studio album, hard elektro act XMH unleash today the first single from this new CD to be released in 2014 by Belgian label Alfa Matrix. "The Business" confirms the Dutch band's characteristic uptempo aggrotech assaults while revealing a more mature and polished production work with refined virulent melodies reinforced by female backing vocals. LEAETHER STRIP mastermind Claus Larsen gave this song a magic eighties flair with carrying synth lines while keeping its club appeal through strong ripping bass lines and hammering beats. The second new song revealed here is entitled "Product" and receives from HEIMATAERDE a frontal bagpipe injection fused with pounding dark elektro sequences give the guarantee of inflicting angry hours to defenseless dancefloors; while SYSTEM:FX took a straighter approach to this same song fueling it with some dirty x-over guitar sounds… A very strong 4-tracker making us want to hear more from XMH's new chemistry of sounds, styles and emotions…

Biography Dark electro band XMH was founded in 2005 by singer/songwriter Benjamin Samson when he left the band Active Disorder. To put on a good live show Benjamin recruited Pieter Sperling (keyboards/programming) and Isa Garcia (vocals/keyboards). XMH released their debut ep cd 'Life' in 2005 which managed to stay in the Dutch Underground Charts (DUC) for more than 6 months! The song 'Rape Your God' also stayed in the DUC for a very long time and has become a club favorite in the dutch dark underground scene. In 2005 and 2006 XMH built up a strong fan following by playing in clubs/venues all over Holland/Belgium. In Summer 2007 XMH presented their debut album ‘Time To Play’ at a packed and sold-out venue at the Summer Darkness festival. The debut cd got very good responses from press, fans, DJ’s and other bands. In short time the cd ‘Time To Play’ reached nr. 2 and the song 'Rape Your God V.2’ went to nr. 1 in the Dutch Underground Charts! Tracks like 'Rape Your God V2, Loser, Wet, Global Killer and Private Cowboy' from the album were picked up by DJ's immediately and have become real dancefloorkillers. Many tracks from ‘Time To Play’ are also featured on several compilation cd’s. The energetic live shows have been received very well by audience and media. XMH has a take no prisoners, in-your-face attitude with main-focus singer Benjamin Samson, who takes control of the stage and is viciously shouting like there’s no tomorrow. XMH only has one aim: to get the people dancing and partying! In short time XMH have worked themselves up to become one of the best new hot acts from Holland. XMH have already toured in Holland, Germany, England, Spain and Belgium with bands such as Covenant, Combichrist, Funker Vogt, Angels & Agony, Clan Of Xymox, Blutengel, DAF, Agonoize, Grendel, The Birthday Mas...
