Music news The xx play free Criminal Records in-store tonight
Posted by Chad Radford @ChadRad on Tue, Nov 17, 2009 at 4:16 PM
Don't fret if you're one of the unlucky ones who didn't act fast enough to get a ticket for the XX show tonight at 529. The group is playing a free in-store show at Criminal Records in L5P tonight (Tues., Nov. 17) at 8 p.m.
With their self-titled debut, Londoners The xx drift through a mire of boy-girl, twentysomething sexual and emotional ruminations via sparse atmospheres and occasionally evolved pop melodies that hide mostly in the shadows. But when it comes to the surface in “VCR,” “Crystalised” and “Basic Space,” their simple, economical songwriting soars far beyond their years.
Show up early as it will most likely be huge.
Criminal Records is located at 1154-A Euclid Ave. 404-215-9511.
