Biography

British electronic band, formed in Hartlepool, UK in the early 1990s by Chris Corner and Liam Howe. Members through their history include Kelli Ali (vocals, occasional lyrics – under name [a=Kelli Dayton]), Joe Wilson (bass, guitar, occasional vocals), David Westlake (drums, programming), Ian Pickering (lyrics, occasional vocals, and bass on later live gigs). As of 2019, Simonne Jones joined efforts towards the proposed new album as the band's vocalist. Other contributors to note are Chris Tate (occasional keyboards on later live gigs), and Noel Fielding (very occasional bass on later live gigs/IAMX cross-over period). The group released three studio albums before ceasing activities, as core member Chris Corner turned his focus to his later solo project [a=IAMX]. In 2021, the group confirmed a reformation with plans to release new music, alongside a new website and social media outlets.

LYRICS

I aim to bug you on your vacancy
Never complicate but you talk it cheap
You sense but you don't know
Too lame to catch a cold
Slowly the signs will read you dumb
Surely the times will feel you numb
I know the pains you took to show me
And I'm nothing but your superbug for asking

I hate to bug you on your certainty
Never compromise, you're just always weak
You care but you don't show
Too proud to catch the flow
And under all the truth and facts there's faith enough
If you can't live on love alone it isn't love

Slowly the signs will read you dumb
Surely the times will feel you numb
I know the depths you sunk to show me
I want the life the world still owes me
And I'm nothing but your superbug for asking
Answer, stamp me out

And I'd love to break your fall but no one's asking me
Answer, stamp me out

Slowly the signs will read you dumb
Surely the times will feel you numb
I know the pains you took to show me
You said it hurts your head to know me
And I'm nothing but your superbug for asking
Answer, stamp me out
