English speakers most often use a Z sound for an X at the start of the word, like xenon and xylophone. I'm ignorant of how it would be pronounced by speakers of other languages, but all my conversations about the band (all three of them, lol) have been in English
But in Afrikaans it'd be a ks
In German x is pronounced ks or kz
