The xx
Amoeba Review
Brad Schelden, Hollywood 10/06/2009
I became a fan of this band the day I first heard the single "Teardrops." The next song I fell in love with was "Crystalised." I bought the 7" and listened to it every day. It just got me and I couldn't stop listening. I patiently awaited the release of the full length and loved it just as much. These kids were not even alive when Ian Curtis of Joy Division killed himself but they have somehow managed to capture the darkness and emotional intensity of a band that few have been able to come close to. I have not had a chance to see this band live yet but I am looking forward to that day. I am also glad this band is getting the recoginition they deserve. This album really is that good. You seriously need it in your collection. You should not live another day without this album! Just try to only listen to "Teardrops" only once!
