Four decades after the inception of X, one thing is clear: X was not only one of the most influential bands to crash out of the punk movement of the late 70s, but their music continues to be sonically groundbreaking. Songs written during the group's inception are as relevant and inventive today as they were in 1977.
Watching X perform provided the rare opportunity to see an original wave punk band put on a clinic of how a rock show is supposed to sound. The band’s music appears to have transcended the generation gap, which is the ultimate achievement for any band. X is a must-see show.
