The xx: "Chained" Video

Anyone for fully clothed swimming?

GET READY TO LOSE YOUR SHIT INTERNET, NEW THE XX STUFF ALERT! But in all seriousness, here's the brand new video for their haunting track "Chained," produced in collaboration with our arty sister site the Creators Project. As much as I may sneer at the blogosphere's habit for going out of their minds over every sneeze, fart or ten second track snippet The xx put out, the visuals for this are very entrancing.

To the somber and bass-y "Chained" the guys decide to take a fully-clothed swim in what looks like an industrial lake, cue lots of bubbly underwater shots tinged with that pretty, petrol-like rainbow effect they've used for all of Coexist's artwork. Very smooth indeed.
