Xenobia started out as a project called 'Koelin' in the summer of 2000. Koen and Collin recorded two 'albums' that summer, and wanted to play the songs of those albums live, but that wasn't possible, for they had no basplayer.
A good friend of them, Ewout Rotteveel happened to play basguitar and joined them. So since August 2000 they were the band Xenobia.
The music is best described as an original interpretation and mix of influences from bands like Dream Theater, Rush, Liquid Tension Experiment, but also heavier bands, like Pantera and KoRn. All the songs are instrumental.
