Crazy experimental pop group Xiu Xiu will release their 10th studio album, Always, on March 6 via Polyvinyl. Until then, get yourself into the bizarre combination of sadness and oddity requisite of a Xiu Xiu LP by watching the video for lead single "Hi." Jamie Stewart lights his hand on fire, amongst other vaguely disturbing images.

Hace un par de semanas tuve el chance de escuchar por completo el nuevo album de Xiu Xiu y no dudo ni tantito que muchos de ustedes tambien ya lo hayan escuchado ya que a decir verdad, este album se filtro bastante rapido peeero sin caer tanto en el tema de los leaks; al escuchar por primera vez "Always" de principio a fin me quedo una extraña sensacion, como si algo estuviera perdido dentro de este material pero conforme lo he venido escuchando un poco mas en los ultimos dias, me parece que no es taaan decepcionante como [...]
How To Dress Well - Clowne Towne [Xiu Xiu] | bx watch the original
Ready for your streaming pleasure.
Brooklyn's ethereal R&B artist Tom Krell (aka How To Dress Well ) has recorded a cover of Xiu Xiu's "Clowne Towne" (from their 2004 LP Fabulous Muscles ). This reworked version focuses solely on Krell's voice, which shifts back and forth between squeaky and emotional and low and brooding. Stream it below (via FACT ). " Fabulous Muscles is one of my all-time fave records, and 'Clowne Towne' is definitely in my top 10 all-time songs," Krell told FACT . "I love the musical composition so much, but I'm especially attracted [...]
Later this year music zine Ad Hoc will be releasing a benefit covers compilation. One of the most eye-catching covers they've got on the collection is this version of "Clowne Towne" by How To Dress Well. The song is originally by Xiu Xiu from their 2004 album Fabulous Muscles . The original version is already quite spare, emphasizing the words and passionate vocals, but HTDW's version takes that element to another level completely. Check it out below.

How To Dress Well es uno de esos proyectos que desde la primera vez que lo escuche me quede completamente crusheado; esa mezcla de atmosferas oscuras con el falceto de Tom Krell al mas puro estilo del R&B fue una combinacion a la que creo que nadie podria resistirse. Desde la aparicion de su album debut "Love Remains" hace ya como dos años, no habiamos tenido ninguna novedad de How To Dress Well en cuanto a nuevo material pero lo que si, es que en este lapso ademas de toparnos el año pasado con la noticia de [...]
Xiu Xiu - "Born to Suffer" Edmund alone. Reads an article about a teenager, looks like Evelyn, hospitalized for eating only chicken nuggets for 17 years. She had chronic fatigue and shortness of breath. Possible that eating healthy doesn't get you much farther. Checks the weather, with no plans of going outside. Checks facebook pages in this order: Jen (3rd wife) accused him of being mentally unstable, he replied "I've never even burnt toast in my life". Someone (Jean Guipta, unfortunate, hateable name) has posted a picture [...]
Upon first viewing of Xiu Xiu's new video for "Hi", you could miss some of the subtle imagery going on, like Dick Cheney's autobiography being thrown away in Barnes & Noble garbage. I'm sure there are a few more clever actions taking place, but I can't get over Xiu Xiu's Jamie Stewart lighting his hand on fire. Seems like Stewart didn't like that decision. The new video was directed by David Horvitz and Jamie Stewart and contains more random imagery than you can imagine. Oh, and it gets the point across that the song's title is [...]
Broken vista At first a jarring, disjointed combination of jilted synths, aggressive beats and Jamie Stewart's always-staggering vocals, eventually you'll find yourself getting lost in 'Hi', the first song from Xiu Xiu's upcoming album Always . Its video, directed by Jamie and David Horvitz, follows Jamie on a roadtrip through upstate New York, with footage of disparate events such as him biting apples still hanging on trees, scrawling lyrics in public bathrooms, shoving copies of Dick Cheney's autobiography into a rubbish bin or [...]
It's all go for the XIU XIU . This week their LP took a leak and now a new video from the post-punking duo has surfaced. If you think it's difficult to explain wots doing down in this new video say HI .
We've got some official visuals for Xiu Xiu 's track "Hi" for your viewing pleasure. It's the first single from their upcoming eighth studio album Always and the video itself is, erm, well, a little odd to say the least. It features a tonne of random images including cats and I can't see those tube waving men without shouting " Wacky Waving Inflatable Arm-Flailing Tubeman" over and over again in my head. God damn you Seth Mcfarlane. See the rather weird video a the top of the page.

Cuchara Sónica"Hi" es el nuevo vídeo de una banda de la que no hablábamos desde hace bastante, Xiu Xiu . Tan experimentales como siempre y con un sonido muy electrónico, la banda americana está de vuelta con Always , un nuevo trabajo que se pondrá a la venta muy pronto y del que "Hi" es su primer sencillo. El vídeo podemos decir que también es muy experimental, o que al menos encaja perfectamente con la filosofía y música de la banda. Dirigido por David Horvitz y Jamie Stewart, se centra en mostrarnos metraje [...]

VAGUE SPACEThe Dirty Three has a new album coming out, their first new album since 2005's Cinder, a long break for the Melbourne trio who play violin, guitar, and drums, no singing, just brilliant music, the first and maybe only rock band to feature violin so prominently, or so impressively. The new album is titled Toward the Low Sun and is coming out in February followed by a tour of Australia and New Zealand in March and some festivals in the UK and Europe over the summer. No word yet on an American leg. But here's [...]
