I recently saw The xx and they blew my mind. Hypnotic melodies coupled with a phenomenal light show, had us all hooked. Oliver Sim swayed with his guitar whilst Romy Croft barely moved. Both such different styles, with voices that blend so perfectly. The video, a clip taken from 'Fantasy' demonstrates a little of the light show and eerie guitar sounds.
The band opened with their newest hit from 'Coexist', 'Angels' and continued with songs from both their debut album and their eagerly awaited second. Jamie Smith pulled the strings from the background, with some songs seeming to last 10 minutes. But it was down to such a smooth flow of music, the tracks changed but hypnotised you, only noticing once they sang the first lyric, or hit that familiar xylophone tone.
If you have the opportunity, go see The xx, i know LkiD is ;) she and you, certainly wont regret it. Peaches.
