The XX's Oliver Sim Releases New Single Obsession

Thursday, 28 August 2025 Written by Jon Stickler

The xx's Oliver Sim has returned with a new single called Obsession.

The bass-heavy, '80s-inspired track features additional vocals from Katie O'Neill, and marks Sim's first solo release since his 2022 debut solo album, 'Hideous Bastard'.

It also marks his first solo release not produced by friend, bandmate and long-time collaborator Jamie xx. Instead, production is handled by Bullion and Taylor Skye, who bring an experimental, playful edge to the sound.

Head below to view the song's accompanying video, directed by Sharna Osborne, and starring Sim alongside British fashion icon Erin O'Connor.
