Creep and Romy of The xx-Days Video

Fitting video for one of the highlight tracks of the alternative scene in recent months. I’ve got serious expectations for both this track and Creep as a duo.

The track is dark and a little futuristic, and both elements are captured superbly here with an ominous yet psychedelic video that makes fantastic use of various lighting effects and benefits from some skilled cinematography. It’s a little odd and quirky too, with lots of isolated, lonesome figures and instances of blood, levitation and so on: it all adds to the package appropriately, fitting the ethereal and experimental feel of the track. A first class all-round package, don’t sleep on this track. Available on iTunes right now!

Creep and Romy Madley Croft of The xx-Days


We’ve had solo material from Jamie of The xx, and now Romy makes an appearance with this feature on Creep’s newest single. It’s a great track, with haunting, atmospheric melodies created by an enjoyable blend of synths, samples and the odd pluck of a guitar, alongside an electro sensibility in the percussion: ticks all the right boxes as far as I’m concerned.

Romy’s vocals are as mellow, whispery and harmonic as ever, bringing some real emotion and melody to this track, which combine with the dark vibe to deliver a fantastic all-rounder. One of the better tracks from the alternative scene in recent weeks.
