The xxThe xx are a trio formed in 2005 at London, England. The band members are Romy Madley Croft (vocals, lead guitar), Oliver Sim (vocals, bass guitar), and Jamie Smith ( Jamie xx) (beats, MPC sampler). Second guitarist and keyboardist Baria Qureshi is no longer a member of the group. Bonding over a shared love of dark, emotive 80s guitar sounds and the high-end sheen of American R&B, The xx’s unique sound befits a band whose wide range of influences combine beautiful, hushed vocal duets and a brilliantly inventive use of samples and low-end frequencies to produce stark, sweet, melancholic pop. powered by lastfm.com xxFor the British band, see The xx. XX = Another confounding year zero blast of otherness from the Geniale Dilettanten fringe of the early 80's German sub-underground. Comprised of two untitled 30 odd minute plunderphonic-based melees, this has most of the basic sign posts you'd anticipate for this sorta fuckery. Turntable and tape speed abuse? Check. Hectoring blather? Check. random metals bashed about? Yes, that too. As geysers of nihilist dada junk spew from this era go, it's a pretty snazzy example. Too bad that all acts of public onanism aren't as amusing as this... powered by lastfm.com
