An unfamiliarity in the face of love, The xx continue to demonstrate how different LP3 will be.
A sample from the Alessi Brothers’ 1978 track “Do You Feel It?”, welcomes in Say Something Loving, sparking another sign of change from the London trio. Romy and Oliver’s crossing of vocals, both delicately uncertain in their narratives, feels comfortably xx, but the story of uncertainty with a welcoming embrace of love is new territory for them.
Jamie’s work ties together with Romy’s signature, isolated guitar tones, to create a vibrancy that is systematically The xx, yet challenges fans to become enveloped with this new era for the trio.
I See You, is set to be released January 13th 2017.
