First Glance: The xx

"The xx are a hot to trot teenage trio from SW London who play bafflingly ace moody hip-pop with bass so thick you could cut it with a carving knife." - The Guardian

The xx are a London new wave/disco band who create bass heavy pop music with clever guitar lines. Teardrops is a cover of the old Womack & Womack hit given a xx makeover. Stars is an intelligent ballad that owes as much to Rihanna and Missy Elliot as The Cure.
