THE XX ARRIVE IN AUSTRALIA
January 27th 2010 12:50
The XX arrive downunder with new video, single and remix
Fans of The xx, our time has come. The xx land in Australia this week! And just in time, we have a swag of new stuff to feast your eyes and ears on.
First up we have the video for their next single VCR. Directed by Marcus Söderlund, the VCR clip depicts a sweet young couple having adventures in a dark, abandoned building.
Making out, lighting fires and kicking in walls... ahh young love! PS: Keep an eye out for the little monkey at the end.

The VCR single has also gotten the remix treatment by producer Matthew Dear.
