Following their three London shows in May, 2010 Mercury Prize winners The xx have unveiled their brand new single 'Angels'.
The xx are known for their captivating stripped-down minimalist sound and new track 'Angels' sees the group sticking to their rule of "quiet is the new loud." 'Angels' will be the lead single from The xx's second studio album 'Coexist,' released by Young Turks on 10th September.
The band unveiled the track via a message on their official website stating: "IT’S BEEN A LONG TIME SINCE WE’VE PLAYED YOU ANYTHING NEW. THIS SONG IS CALLED ANGELS, IT IS THE FIRST SINGLE FROM OUR NEW ALBUM, COEXIST. WE’VE BEEN PLAYING THIS SONG LIVE RECENTLY, SO IT FEELS GOOD TO SHARE WITH YOU THE VERSION WE’VE BEEN WORKING ON FOR SO LONG. WE HOPE YOU LIKE IT. XX THE XX"
