XX / The XX (Young Turks)
Extremely promising debut from equal parts miserablist and soulful hotly-tipped indie art school chancers. Guitar sound very much like early Cure stuff, mixed with Bark Psychosis and Tracey Thorn on vocals.
Gets better as you get further into the album, and better with each listen. A win-win! The female vocalist will go far.
