Who needs the extra x: xx = sex

I swear to Prince's bare buttcheeks, The xx is the sexiest band around (see, I wrote it in red just to show you HOW sexy.)

If their 2009 album "xx" (as heard on Rock Rulz episode 1, btw) isn't proof enough, check out this subtle, yet smokin' video for "VCR." (More proof of sexiness: only xx could make the fab player of VHS tapes sexy). When I think of VCRs I now think of slow rewinding . . . and boning.

Enjoy.



The video is courtesy of Pitchfork, who also reports that the xx will soon remix a new album from jazz/spoken word/and badass artist Gil Scott-Heron. If you don't know Mr. Scott-Heron, then perhaps you have heard the phrase "The Revolution Will Not Be Televised." (Never-mind the fact that the revolution WAS televised and it's called Jersey Shore.)
