The xx - 'xx'14 August 2009 The-xx
2 years in the pipe line and The xx are finally ready to release their debut album, ‘xx’.
This being the modern world; full of instant communication techniques, the world wide web and complete freedom of global information, we decided it would be wise to release the album at different dates in different countries.
So…
The UK/Europe/World:
You can get your album from the 17th of August. I highly recommend you buy it from Rough Trade as they’ll not only send you your copy ASAP but they’ll give you a free bonus CD with lots of covers on it.
USA/North America:
I’m sorry but you have to wait for your physical copy of the album: it’s coming out on the 20th of October.
HOWEVER: if you pre-order it from here they’ll send you your album in October but will also give you a .
Here are two videos we made for two of the album tracks, so you know about 2/11ths of what you’re getting into.
The xx – Crystalised
The xx – Basic Space

Broze,
Wouldja consider getting Ian’s girlfriend to draw on the “Islands” frame whatevers with crayon or something? The idea of it as “Bomber’s non-Baedeker” understood, and too well.
