Might have been more punk, but definate new wave influence. Love the lead female vocalist.

Never owned any of their albums (or heard any of them all the way through) but I love Breathless, Motel Room in my Bed, White Girl, Fourth of July...

I'm a big X fan and have been since 1981.
My 13-year-old daughter now likes them too and I take her with me to their shows.

Exene has not aged well at all. She looked OK twenty years ago but not now. She looked 70 when I saw her in November 2003. She

I agree. She has not aged as well as Terri Nunn from Berlin, but yes, she still sounds great.

Exene - real name, Christene Edge - is now a teacher/librarian(!) She's suing her ex, Viggo Mortensen, for more child support. See the Smoking Gun:

I went to see the Schemers at the Living Room many moons ago--they opened for X who I had not heard until then. They put on a great show!!!!!!

Actually, Exene's real name is Christine Cervenka. She is now legally known as Christine Edge because she is married to Jason Edge, the guitarist in her band Original Sinners. He's way younger than her too! [:0]

I'm a fan!
Great Dangerhouse singles, but so elusive. The X Anthology doesn't have everything I'm after on it.
