the_escapist Posted August 21, 2012 Share Posted August 21, 2012 "Angels" remained the strongest track on the album Also what I thought after my first listen... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the_escapist Posted August 21, 2012 Share Posted August 21, 2012 Just listened their first album again, immediately after listening Coexist and the first album is WAYYYYYY better.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corkus Posted August 22, 2012 Share Posted August 22, 2012 Not sure yet if I like it as much as the debut or not. But one thing for sure is that I really like it. Nothing else on it tops "Angels", but I might even like "Angels" better than any song on the debut. (on the flip side, "Try" is probably the first xx song I actually dislike) "Reunion" and "Swept Away" are also great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SueDeNimes Posted August 22, 2012 Share Posted August 22, 2012 :bomb: I'm so curious and tempted... even more after reading your comments... but I'll wait until my pre-order starts downloading... :bomb: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shred Posted August 22, 2012 Share Posted August 22, 2012 So after a few listens, I like it. Not as much as xx but it's still lovely. I'm still loving their sound so I'm really enjoying the second album. :D Disappointed there's not instrumental in Coexist though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

w1ll1am7 Posted August 22, 2012 Share Posted August 22, 2012 I didn't purge myself into 'xx' but I do enjoy it, and with this album - I think I am going to love it a lot more. Reunion sticks out for me on Coexist and it will do well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SueDeNimes Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 Ok, I need to give in for one song... :embarrassed: Is this one on the album? And what is it called? edit: just seen its name is "Tides"... sorry! [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TJqE-i9Lris]The xx at Chats Palace, London - YouTube[/ame] Thanks in advance!! :kiss: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shred Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 Yup, it's on the album! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abracadabra Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 Is it strange I'm still in love with the first album? Up until now, only some (alternative) rock albums have succeeded in claiming my attention all the way from when they were released till the present. It's magical.

SueDeNimes Posted September 4, 2012 Share Posted September 4, 2012 Has everybody seen this already and I'm the last one to discover?? Can't wait for my pre-order to start downloading... http://www.npr.org/2012/09/03/160323435/first-listen-the-xx-coexist :awesome: This is so good. :dead: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shred Posted September 4, 2012 Share Posted September 4, 2012 Nope, I was just about to come here to post that. Haha. Am I the only one who feels that Coexist is missing something? Everything I listen to it, I feel a little unsatisfied - I want more but can't get it. Then I go and listen to XX to get what I can't get it. Lol. Something is missing from Coexist and I hate it. :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corkus Posted September 4, 2012 Share Posted September 4, 2012 It's missing a kickass instrumental piece like "Intro". That's all I can think of, though. I've finally concluded that it's a damn good album that's just a notch below the debut. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alien Radio Posted September 6, 2012 Share Posted September 6, 2012 Swept Away ;_____; It's a good album, but I agree that something is missing. I still prefer xx, but Coexist may grow on me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
