Baria now Ex-X X

Baria Qureshi has decided not to return to The XX, after pulling out of the band shortly before their recent London date. Romy Madley Croft tells the NME that the band will continue as a three piece:

"Baria has left the band," she confirmed. "I guess 'personal differences' would be the standard way to say it. I guess it's just the intensity of being on tour, things are so much heightened."

Hopefully, it won't mess too much with the band's secret magic recipe. Will it?
