Influences
The members of the band enjoy all forms of gothic and industrial music and find in them the influences that unite their diverse sounds.
XUBERX supports the clubs that play and present live bands of this genre in the Washington DC/Baltimore area, and two in particular:
XUBERX believes local bands have a responsibility to support local clubs and DJs if those same bands expect the opportunity to play live or to have their music played in clubs.
Sounds Like
XUBERX does not believe it sounds like any one influence or any other band. The diverse songs and different styles span more than just a single description.
XUBERX particularly thanks
Ego Likeness
and
The Dark Clan for the immense support we've received from these two bands.
Founded in early 2007, XUBERX consists of Cheetahdave, Liebchen, and Zomboy. XUBERX has a sound not easily compared to other industrial bands.
Both in its recordings and live, XUBERX combines contrasting vocal styles and harsh guitar sounds with its electronic core to create the noise that will destroy the world, two ears at a time. XUBERX has played with a number of major regional, national, and international acts.
The first XUBERX CD, an 8 track EP called Rogue State, was completed in the summer of 2007 and released in August of that year by Radio-Active-Music. Featuring remixes of the title track by Galvanax and Dharmata 101, and the production and mastering skills of Jsun Bruner of the latter band, the EP captures the range and potential of the band.
XUBERX's first full length CD, "Intelligent Demise," was released in September, 2008. Produced by Dan Clark of Stromkern, this CD features a reworking of Rogue State and the band's first breakout song, "The World Ends Today."
In February, 2009, XUBERX released "Intelligence, Revised," a remix CD of 2008's full length. This CD is remarkable both in terms of the artists who remixed XUBERX, but also in the range of results.
XUBERX finds influences in a broad spectrum of music and bands, but a consensus seems to be that Stromkern and Angelspit have been among the strongest musical influences.
To describe XUBERX’s sound, however, is more difficult. The broad genre of “industrial” music fits well, but no one subgenre truly encapsulates the band. In performances, the band complements its use of synthesizers with live guitar.
XUBERX's members have a solid background in the Baltimore/Washington goth/industrial music scene. Two XUBERX members are well known DJs.
XUBERX's Liebchen has been a resident DJ at Syndrome (DC), Schadenfreude (DC), Midnight (DC), and Ascension (Baltimore, MD), she appears with regular frequency at Chronos (DC), and has also DJed for Midian (DC), The Dawning (Charlottesville, VA), and several events at the increasingly legendary industrial music store Strangeland Records. Liebchen secured collegiate and postgraduate degrees in music.
XUBERX's Cheetahdave is an associate resident DJ for Midnight (DC) and has DJed in a number of other venues. He has traded his duties as a former frontman in prior bands, and is the principal composer, programmer, and guitarist.
XUBERX's Zomboy brings to the table an explosive cocktail of visceral energy and rage filled lyrics. Taking inspiration from his love of both Death/Black/Thrash metal and the blood pumping sonic vibrations of Industrial/Harsh EBM, his presence on stage can only be stopped by removing the head or destroying the brain...
XUBERX has played with international, national, and regional acts, such as Ego Likeness, Hanzel und Gretyl, Accessory, Bella Morte, the Dark Clan, I:Scintilla, Ayria, and The Cruxshadows.
XUBERX uses Nord and Access synthesizers, Schecter guitars, and Peavey amplification.
