Sneaker Pimps

UK trip-hop band formed in Hartlepool in England. Lead singer Kelli Dayton was asked to leave the group after the release of debut album "Becoming X" (1996) and Chris Corner took over as lead vocalist for the following albums "Splinter" (1999) and "Bloodsport" (2002). A fourth album with the working title 'SP4' was recorded but never released. It was leaked online in its demo version and some of the tracks ended up on the first two IAMX albums.
