The XX

There has been a well-deserved buzz on the internet building around The XX. Simplicity is their appeal and a welcome change of pace from the intricacies that are prevalent in most of this year's best music. The song Teardrops demonstrates their ability to approach their craft with a deliberate naivety by juxtaposing emotional vocals and melody with simple technique and lo-fi recording. Their debut album is out August 18th on Rough Trade.
