The XX

The XX have sprunng into popuraity over since the summer, and it's good news that the charts finally have a new sound. Releasing their new song "VCR" the trio has really started to make their mark in the charts. I've been a fan of The XX since I first heard them in 2009 with their first single " Crystalised" which was released early August. 

Carrying on with their distinctive sound, "VCR" is a little more up beat than their usual, but personally I think it is great, the way the beat makes you want to be there with them singing that song.I think it is amazing and I love to chill out to The XX in the evening.

According to Wikipedia The XX were seen on the famous Eastenders E20 programme their cover of "Teardrops" was used in the show. "Teardrops" is avaliable to download on their Myspace page. 

Everyone has been talking about how great their ablum "xx" has been, so it's no suprise they won the Barcalycard mercury prize this September. Unfortunatley I'm only 12 so the amount of concerts that I can go too are restricted by parents and money! :(

I did manage to go to Guilfest this year with my friends, unfortunatley they were not there but I did manage to see such bands as Just Jack , Tinnie Tempah and ( My favourite band ) the amazing N-dubz! :D I guess N-dubz are not in the same league as The XX.. or have the same following! :)
