After some time the sound of XESS started to change piece by piece. The sound of drums and guitars became more heavier and the whole atmosphere darker. In the end of 2005 the band self-released the second album - “Psychoholic Bastard Crew”.
Now the main core of the band - Beska, Shatras and Blakulla - is working on their 3rd album, which will be full of gothic rock, thrash metal and industrial elements. XESS musicians are also actively taking (and also did that before) parts in other bands and projects, like Dreamland Poetry, Mano Juodoji Sesuo, Angis, Anapilis or Siela.
On the stage XESS plays 2 guitars, bass, 2 vocals and live drummer.

Division
XESS Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And feel the deepest neon skies
Then kiss my lips of chrome…
Kiss… Like the burning piece of ice
But I know – it’s just another pure lies
Division of celebration
We celebrate the New Dawn rise
Prepare for transformation
Burn down with acceleration…
Burn…Like the freezing acid lust
But I know – we’ll turn into the star dust
The lyrics to XESS's song, Division, are an evocative and enigmatic look into the idea of transformation and inner turmoil. The opening lines, "Look into my X-ray eyes, yeah / And feel the deepest neon skies / Then kiss my lips of chrome," evoke a sense of detachment and artificiality - the singer is inviting the listener to see into their soul, but it's made clear that their soul is anything but natural.
The chorus, "Division of celebration / We celebrate the New Dawn rise," adds an interesting layer to this theme. It's unclear what the "New Dawn" is, but it's clearly something that's worth celebrating despite the sense of division that the lyrics allude to.
The second verse continues this sense of transformation, as the singer implores the listener to "Prepare for transformation / Burn down with acceleration… / Burn… Like the freezing acid lust." This is a kind of reckoning, a purging of the old to make way for the new. The final line, "But I know - we'll turn into the star dust," is a beautiful and romantic image of transformation - from cold, lifeless chrome to fiery starlight.
