They have toured the globe relentlessly, performing in places as far off the beaten path as Kazakhstan and Lebanon and places institutionally vital as the Guggenheim and Centre Pompidou. On Xiu Xiu's latest album, 13\" Frank Beltrame Italian Stiletto with Bison Horn Grips, Angela Seo and Jamie Stewart deliver some of the bands most compelling and mesmerizing music to date. Mixed by John Congleton (Chelsea Wolfe, Swans, Lana Del Rey) this album is unlike anything the band has ever recorded previously and was motivated by the destruction of previous aesthetic notions, as well as the band's recent move from Los Angeles to Berlin.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTracks:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e1.1 Arp Omni \u003cbr\u003e1.2 Maestro One Chord \u003cbr\u003e1.3 Common Loon \u003cbr\u003e1.4 Pale Flower \u003cbr\u003e1.5 Veneficium \u003cbr\u003e1.6 Sleep BLVD \u003cbr\u003e1.7 T.D.F.T.W \u003cbr\u003e1.8 Bobby Bland \u003cbr\u003e1.9 Piña, Coconut ; Cherry\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Xiu Xiu","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":59234841788761,"sku":"V44483968.0","price":8.69,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1033\/0151\/3561\/files\/4355988-3199347_2b7c39f9-9a66-4d8d-a6c6-5c759cee3509.jpg?v=1788059956"},{"product_id":"xiu-xiu-oh-no-solid-cream-solid-scarlet-vinyl","title":"Xiu Xiu: OH NO (Solid Cream \u0026 Solid Scarlet Vinyl) - VINYL","description":"\u003cb\u003eTitle: \u003c\/b\u003eOH NO (Solid Cream \u0026amp; Solid Scarlet Vinyl)\u003cbr\u003e\n \u003cb\u003eArtist: \u003c\/b\u003eXiu Xiu\u003cbr\u003e\n \u003cb\u003eLabel: \u003c\/b\u003ePolyvinyl Records\u003cbr\u003e\n \u003cb\u003eProduct Type: \u003c\/b\u003eVINYL LP\u003cbr\u003e\n \u003cb\u003eUPC: \u003c\/b\u003e644110042613\u003cbr\u003e\n \u003cb\u003eGenre: \u003c\/b\u003eRock\u003cbr\u003e\n \u003cb\u003eRelease Date: \u003c\/b\u003e2021-03-26\u003cbr\u003e\n \u003cb\u003eNumber of Discs: \u003c\/b\u003e2\u003cbr\u003e\n \u003cb\u003eAdditional Details: \u003c\/b\u003eCOLORED VINYL, GATEFOLD LP JACKET\u003cbr\u003e\n \u003cbr\u003e\n \n \n Solid Cream \u0026amp; Solid Scarlet Vinyl. Xiu Xiu makes beautiful music for hard times. For nearly 20 years, the band has a track record of crafting experimental music for moments when life's harsh realities meet it's existential mysteries. On the latest album, Jamie Stewart explores a recent revelation and is reminded of the power of the band's music to surprise and connect. Listening to the songs on OH NO, it is hard to feel truly alone. Instead, it is a reminder that even when we're alone, we're alone together. OH NO, the group's newest album, is an album of duets, with Stewart sharing the stage with an array of guests who have made an impact on him personally and musically. This is the first Xiu Xiu album where every song spotlights Jamie Stewart and a collaborator. The album features artists across the musical spectrum, including Sharon Van Etten, Circuit des Yeux's Haley Fohr, Grouper's Liz Harris, Alice Bag, Chelsea Wolfe, Owen Pallet, and Twin Shadow's George Lewis Jr., all drift into Xiu Xiu's distinctive soundworld. The album was born out of anguish and isolation, but exists as it does because of a profound rediscovery of community and friendship. It is the sound of finding one's place in the world after the destructive powers of jealousy and mistrust make any map seemingly unreadable.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTracks:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e1.1 Sad Mezcalita \u003cbr\u003e1.2 I Cannot Resist \u003cbr\u003e1.3 The Grifters \u003cbr\u003e1.4 Goodbye for Good \u003cbr\u003e1.5 Oh No \u003cbr\u003e1.6 Rumpus Room \u003cbr\u003e1.7 Fuzz Gong Fight \u003cbr\u003e1.8 I Dream of Someone Else Entirely \u003cbr\u003e1.9 One Hundred Years \u003cbr\u003e1.10 A Classic Screw \u003cbr\u003e1.11 It Bothers Me All \u003cbr\u003e1.12 The Time \u003cbr\u003e1.13 Saint Dymphna \u003cbr\u003e1.14 Knock Out \u003cbr\u003e1.15 A Bottle of Rum \u003cbr\u003e1.16 Ants\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Xiu Xiu","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":59234856337753,"sku":"V41310625","price":10.49,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1033\/0151\/3561\/files\/3923313-2664787.jpg?v=1788059960"},{"product_id":"xiu-xiu-forget","title":"Xiu Xiu: Forget - VINYL","description":"\u003cb\u003eTitle: \u003c\/b\u003eForget\u003cbr\u003e\n \u003cb\u003eArtist: \u003c\/b\u003eXiu Xiu\u003cbr\u003e\n \u003cb\u003eLabel: \u003c\/b\u003ePolyvinyl Records\u003cbr\u003e\n \u003cb\u003eProduct Type: \u003c\/b\u003eVINYL LP\u003cbr\u003e\n \u003cb\u003eUPC: \u003c\/b\u003e644110032713\u003cbr\u003e\n \u003cb\u003eGenre: \u003c\/b\u003eRock\u003cbr\u003e\n \u003cb\u003eRelease Date: \u003c\/b\u003e2017-02-24\u003cbr\u003e\n \u003cb\u003eNumber of Discs: \u003c\/b\u003e1\u003cbr\u003e\n \u003cb\u003eAdditional Details: \u003c\/b\u003eCOLORED VINYL, DIGITAL DOWNLOAD CARD\u003cbr\u003e\n \u003cbr\u003e\n \n \n Limited edition colored vinyl LP pressing. While writing FORGET, Xiu Xiu released the lauded Plays the Music of Twin Peaks, collaborated with Mitski on a song for an upcoming John Cameron Mitchell film, and scored an experimental reworking of the Mozart opera, The Magic Flute. All of this frantic, external activity lead to a softly damaged dreaminess and broadened intent that has not been heard before in other Xiu Xiu works. Standout track, \"Wondering\" is one of the catchiest boogie pop gems in the Xiu Xiu catalog, but like much of FORGET, it still bears an underlying tension that manifests differently in each piece.

Ignore Grief is a record of halves. Angela Seo sings on half of the record. Jamie Stewart sings on half of the record. Half of it is real. Half of it is imaginary. The real songs attempt to turn the worst life has offered to five people the band is connected with into some kind of desperate shape that does something, anything, other than grind and brutalize their hearts and memory within these stunningly horrendous experiences. The imaginary songs are an expansion and abstract exploration of the early rock and roll \"Teen Tragedy\" genre as jumping off point to decontaminate the band's own overwhelming emotions in knowing and living with what has happened to these five people.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTracks:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e1.1 The Real Chaos Cha Cha Cha \u003cbr\u003e1.2 666 Photos of Nothing \u003cbr\u003e1.3 Esquerita, Little Richard \u003cbr\u003e1.4 Maybae Baeby \u003cbr\u003e1.5 Tarsier, Tarsier, Tarsier, Tarsier \u003cbr\u003e1.6 Pahrump \u003cbr\u003e1.7 Border Factory \u003cbr\u003e1.8 Dracula Parrot, Moon Moth \u003cbr\u003e1.9 Brothel Creeper \u003cbr\u003e1.10 For M.\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Xiu Xiu","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":59235081978201,"sku":"V43240722","price":7.49,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1033\/0151\/3561\/files\/4172081-2932400.jpg?v=1788060079"}],"url":"https:\/\/normanrecord.com\/collections\/xiu-xiu.oembed","provider":"NORMANRECORD","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
