XX

X = 0 (2010-07-29) : 1/5
X writes an OK song.br /br /And that's it. ONE OK song over and over and over and over. This album is like one boring dull hum. At 1st you are hopeful at things like the easy beat and the male/female duet. But nothing ever changes or materializes. If you made a graph of this album, it would be a horizontal line. X = 0. The whole band needs to lay off the Xanax.(must be what the X stands for) Worst vocal delivery ever!
One of 2009's top debuts (2010-07-23) : 4/5
This is an interesting minimalist cool Cd with echoes of Joy Division (and, therefore, New Order), the early Cure, the Bristol bands like Portishead and most of all The Durutti Column. Some of the negative reviewers have criticized both vocalists as being technically deficient. They are missing the point. The sparse conversationalist singing suits both lyrics and music perfectly. The XX have made one of 2009's best debuts.
