Stream the xx's New Album Coexist
The xx's second album, Coexist, is out next week via Young Turks. Stream the whole thing below, courtesy of a nifty widget. In collaboration with Microsoft, the band have launched a website where you can track the album's path across the internet as it's shared from user to user.
"Send it to a friend and watch the path continue," the press materials explain. The band started the stream with one of their biggest superfans-- and it's spreading so fast that the site keeps dropping out, so be patient if it's slow to load.
Listen below, and watch a video of the band playing "Night Time" for Pitchfork.tv's "Surveillance". Read our "Update" interview with the band about the making of the album here, and a more in-depth feature interview here.
