Xx

Coexist is the second studio album by English indie pop group The XX. Singer and guitarist Romy Madley Croft said the new songs show the evolution of the band over the past few years.

“I’ve been thinking that I hope people enjoy it as a separate thing. The first album exists - we’re not trying to make it again. We’ve just grown up, and although this isn’t a ‘grown up’ album, we’ve evolved. It’s just us growing a bit more. I hope people enjoy it as a continuation, rather than us trying to make the first album again.”

Review

[[xx]]A band that frequently ends up on the Readings Carlton turntable during long sunny Sunday afternoons, the yearning alt-pop of The XX is almost a physical comfort.

Romy Madley Croft fills in all the quiet corners with her velvet-lined vocals. From a soulful nod to Portishead on the opening single ‘Angels’ to the steadier clap of the drum line on indie-dance track ‘Swept Away’, The XX are a chain letter in band form: hear them, pass it on and watch it take over the world.
