The XX have shared a deluxe version of their critically acclaimed album “I See You”, The digitally released version has two new tracks, “Naive,” which samples Drake’s “Doing It Wrong” from his 2011 album Take Care, and “Seasons Run.” An acoustic version of “Brave For You (Marfa Demo)” also accompanies the two new songs; the indie-pop trio released a music video for the song as well .
The acoustic version of “Brave For You” has a considerably shorter run time with Romy Croft’s enchanting vocals feeling much more personal without the swelling synths and heavy drums that follow her voice in the original version. It’s almost surprising how well The xx sound acoustically. The music video features home footage of Croft and Oliver Sim performing the song before Jamie XX joins them to trudge down a barren highway.
The group completed spring tours of Europe and North America recently announced more dates have been arranged with Perfume Genius.
I See You has been among the best albums of the year on many blog sites, and these three songs are on par with the best of the album’s tracks.
