The XX is the ultimate cool band. They were revealed to the public with their eponymous debut album in 2009, winning the heart of connoisseurs with their hip indie rock. The coldness of the rhythm section contrasts with the two very organic singers and the clever layers of clean guitars by Romy Madley Croft and Baria Qureshi. Coexist in 2012 confirmed that they have found a winning formula.
