Customer Ratings & Reviews

I do not use headphones very often, but these are comfortable, I do not like paying alot of money for headphones. To me these are expendable and should be around $5 nomatter what the brand.

been wanting this CD for a while and now it is the one I've been keeping on loop in my car. : )

Excellent album with a perfect and sweet sound, I love the concept of this group

the entire cd is awesome. It's sexy. ... great to set "the mood" :)

Years later still listening to this xx classic album!

This band is amazing good quality Thank you so much

The whole album is absolutely mint and filled with great tracks overall. The album cover and overall build quality is also a plus.

The xx are Barry White in this modern age. Sexiest music ever to come out of a few white people from England.

Great cd and offered with free shipping. Can't beat that!

Great music! I would recommend listening to them on youtube first then buying the CD.

I love this band. Great cd and it is fairly priced.

Nice company on the way home. Light, unpretentious music.

Got it for my daughter and she is loving it......-

This album reinvents the feel that The Postal Service first brought with them. This album is magnificent.

I heard Crystalized on the radio and I was hooked. Jaime XX, the keyboardist and producer, weaves a magical 40 minute journey, with some of the most haunting production I've heard in some time. Lead singers could be better, but music more than makes up for it.

The cd overall is great, these are one of the cds I can definitely listen to through the entire playlist. I love this band and I don't even listen to much Alternative music

Between August 2009 when this album was released and November 2010 when I bought it, it seemed like all anyone was talking about was The xx. Rolling Stone absolutely raved about the band as well as the album, and the reviews of the record were practically off the charts. So, during Amazon Music's holidays sale in 2010, when the album was super-duper cheap, I went ahead and bought it figuring there was no better time to check this band out. Sadly, that money was utterly and completely wasted. The only song worth listening to on this album us "Intro." The rest of the album is boring minimalist garbage borrowed heavy-handedly from bands like Joy Division and New Order as well as contemporary R&B. The basslines alone sound as if Peter Hook was flown in to record them personally, and there is a strong level of R&B production across the whole record. However, what slapped me in the face the most about this album is just how utterly and completely BORING it is. The singing is barely audible, and they sound as if they can barely lift a finger to play their instruments. And I won't go into the drivel that gets passed off as lyrics.... How this album garned--and won--so many awards is completely beyond me. How so many music critics not only didn't flame this record back to the Stone Age but actually stated they LIKED it is flabbergasting. I've listened to this album over a dozen times, and I'm not lying when I tell you I can barely stand it. Every time I put it on, I'm bored out of my gourd by the fourth track, but I keep hoping every time I play it again that I'll find something else besides the opening track that I'll actually like. So far, though, I've failed at this fool's errand every single time. And this last time I've played the album will be my last; this album can't be removed from my music collection fast enough.

This album was a great addition. It's calming and fun at the same time.
