(sorry if there's a duplicate thread further back than the 3 pages i looked haaa..)

i love love love the xx, i think they're so awesome just to kick back and think to.

i think my favourite song off the album is stars, cause it's so beautiful. but i love them all so much.

anyone else like them?

hoping to go see them in london later this year when i move down south.

Never heard of them before, but I don't really like the song!

i love the xx, probably one of the best new bands around right now. idk what my favorite of theirs is but its a lot of fun blasting "crystalised" really loud

I think Crystalised is one of the low points on the album, highlights being (as mentioned) Stars, Night Time and Heart Skipped a Beat.

Maybe they've improved live, but I saw em at Leeds and it was a bit boring, no-one moved or spoke much between songs, saying that I got (3) free tshirts from it (and a hell of a lot of stickers) so it was worth it ;D

Definately my favourite album of 2009

It'll be astounding if they don't include it on the mercury award list (20th July!)
