E‘xx’tra fresh pop debut

The storyline behind The xx is so old it's barely worth telling. A group of four 20 year olds from London get together, record a stunning debut and are praised as the next in line to overtake the indie music throne. This version's stunning debut, xx, however, sets itself apart as not really falling into that same trajectory. It has no one distinctive influence or overbearing angst, but it manages to stretch the genre to a limit by rearing back and stripping it of nearly everything, showing encouraging amounts of confidence in the band's finer moments. It's actually surprising how young the members of The xx are considering how ballsy their debut LP is, whether those be in the form of confidence of hormones.
