It's rare that a band today can make an album that gets better with each and every repeat, but The xx have done just that. They've gone from a group of brand-new English kids to one of the biggest bands in the independent music world in just under a year, but The xx deserve every mote of the attention that's been thrown their way.

Songs performed: "Islands," "Infinity," and "Teardrops" (Womack and Womack cover).
