The xx announce work on new album

After almost a year of speculation as to whether we will see another album from The xx soon, the band have finally confirmed that they are back in the studio working on album number three.

The new full-length will follow up the 2012 album 'Coexist', as well as Jamie xx's wonderful solo effort 'In Colour' last year, and according to a note posted on their Facebook, the band are “in the studio" once again.

While they haven't unveiled any new material yet, the group did also post a playlist of songs that are currently being used as inspiration for the new record. You can check those out in the player below.
