With X's, Cigarettes After Sex finally takes center stage as not just one of today's preeminent indie bands, but as one of the
most globally accomplished acts across any genre, whose often unconventional path to superstardom has helped reshape
the very definition of success for artists in the modern era.
Filled with raw, imagistic, sometimes smutty vignettes set to entrancing, slowburn pop songs, bandleader Greg Gonzalez
captures every emotion a romantic arc inspires. But where previous albums have drawn from an amalgam of relationships,
for the most part, X's centralizes on just one relationship that spanned four years. "The record feels brutal," admits Gonzalez.
"I could sit and talk about this loss to someone, but that wouldn't scratch the surface. I have to really write about it, sing
about it, have the music, and then I can start to analyze and learn from it. Or just relive it-in a good way. I don't have that
Eternal Sunshine-thing of wanting to forget."
While continuing to observe classic pop song structures, Gonzalez has moved away from the prior sonic touchstones of the
'50s and '60s, finding himself now drawn to a '70s/'80s slow dance. While (in typical Cigarettes style) these changes may be
subtle, the overall resulting energy is akin to disco ball-refracted tears on the dance floor.
