Danish progressive rock band, X Contract, have topped the BEAT100 Music Video Chart for the second time with their original track, Realise. The talented band won the chart at the start of September with another X Contract original track, How Would I, which featured well-known Danish actor, Anders W. Berthelsen, as the lead role in the emotional and moving music video. The bands tenacious promotion and sharing on BEAT100 and other various social networks paid off as they received over 8,000 video views and 2,000 votes, which topped their previous vote and view ratings from their last BEAT100 Music Video Chart victory. The video received two BEAT100 Gold Awards for their well-written song and excellent performance qualities, along with a BEAT100 Silver Favourite Award.

The album received several excellent reviews, drawing parallels to several successful bands, such as, Radiohead, Coldplay and Anathema. X Contract describe the album as something that invites the audience into a universe of love and hate, a musical tour through indie as well as new metal, and an expression that reaches from hard to emotional rock. The band have received much recognition from radio stations in England who have played their tracks, despite the level of difficulty they have experienced due to their home country being Denmark. X Contract told BEAT100, Its extremely difficult to make a name for yourself in Denmark if youre not playing along with pop-beats. Dennis Pedersen, lead singer, formed the band back in 2007, along with lead guitarist and songwriter, Lars Kilt, and drummer Bj
