The XX's Oliver Sim Shares Debut Album

Oliver Sim—best known for his work as songwriter, bassist, and vocalist of The xx—has released his debut album through Young.

Produced by bandmate Jamie xx, Hideous Bastard is the culmination of two years of writing and recording, inspired by Sim’s love of horror movies and his own life experience, unpacking themes of shame, fear, and masculinity.

Several of the songs will soundtrack the forthcoming short film “Hideous,” starring Sim and directed by Yann Gonzales.
