I See You is marked by a tonal shift to something close to pure, crisp pop structure, adorned by unusual crescendos that echo a dexterous DJ inching their dancer toward climax without ever quite lifting the house lights. Its lyric sheet moves from the danger and hopelessness of love to its deliciousness and rapture; a move into a more outward looking proposition.

I See You is recognizably still The xx but is now powered by the voluble ambition of its three perfect counterweights to one another starting to not just realize but harness their full potential. You might even want to think of the decisive move from Joy Division to New Order here, too.

"The xx has always been a band of contrasts, from the stark black and white of their debut album cover, to the interplay between Oliver Sims' and Romy Madley Croft's moody, murmured vocals, to the trio's proclivities for both sweeping guitar rock and sultry dancehall grooves. That said, I See You is The xx's most seamless blend of the elements that make them what they are—a band destined to leave an unmistakable and permanent imprint on the indie-pop landscape. Ace beatmaker Jamie xx, launched into well-deserved solo stardom by his own In Colour, creates gorgeous atmospheric textures that elevate Sims and Croft without overwhelming them. The result is a deep and enchanting album that is just as likely to soundtrack a party ("Dangerous") as it is a daydream ("Replica"), and is at its best when doing both at once ("Lips")." - Scott Russell, Paste Magazine
