简介
The sleek almost nocturnal sound does not project cold images. In fact, XX transfers a warm and inviting feeling through their sweet melodic songs. The mystery of how they manage to pull off such a unique sound most likely comes from the lead vocals of Romy Madley Croft and Oliver Sim that eliminate the typical domineering sound and replace it with hushed, sensually intertwined voices of harmony. Instrumentals that seem fitting for a James Bond film and gloomy tracks that express XX's love of Interpol combine to create a brazenly seductive album.
Overall, the self-title debut of XX is cohesive, tender, and approachable album that could only be created through maturity and sincere talent. However, their youth and innocent inexperience may be vital to the projected and felt tone, not the aesthetic tones that flutter out of the speakers. "XX" deserve to be named one of the best debut albums of the year, but also simply one of the best overall albums. If you plan to find one new favorite band this year, make it XX, a band that will outlast the wonders of today.
