Can not get enough of these guys.
Great band! (check out Summer Camp – swedish gold!).
yeah i played a summer camp track on my radio show today, gotten a ton of ?s about them already.
I missed that :)
Great video. I actually wasn't that into the xx, but watching this intrigues me.
I like the minimalism.. hint of Young Marble Giants about them. There's not a lot of young bands that have the confidence to let their music be that sparse. The goth-kid image I'm not so sure about..
so close.
the xx are everywhere, which i think they deserve. i'll have to check out summer camp, but i love the editing on this video.
Richie is spot on about YMG
Cool video. There's another XX video at http://the-drone.com/magazine/the-xx with an interview shot in Paris, I think they definitely deserve all that hype surrounding them.
