...according to our Dave on 22 October 2009.

The xx are an ultra suave minimilist electro pop band who are tearing up the airwaves here at the moment... Well when I say say tearing I mean sort of slinking up the airwaves...Its breathy, well produced and sort of like Hall & Oates... Which is not a bad thing... 'Islands' is on Young Turks so go buy....

Love this record? Hate it? Tell us.

What their label says...

• As with much of The xx’s music, ‘Islands’ is ultimately
a great pop song. (“If The Sugababes chose to cover
‘Islands’ it would get to No. 1” – The Sunday Times).
• Available on 7”, ‘Islands’ comes backed with The xx’s
take on Kyla’s UK funky anthem ‘Do You Mind?’.

• What they’re saying about The xx: “A triumph of young,
idiosyncratic vision” – NME, “Heart-stopping stuff” –
Mojo, “Utterly electrifying” – The Observer, “Sounding
seriously, honestly – unbelievably! – unlike any other
pop music going” – Dazed & Confused, “Seductively
special” – Observer Music Monthly.
