XIU XIU - Always CD
BELLA UNION (BELLACD319)
As Xiu Xiu marks a decade in existence, it's only fitting that such a powerful sentiment would serve as the title of its latest album: Always. Produced by Deerhoof's Greg Saunier and mixed by John Congleton the album is positively vibrant. Always transforms avant pop elements from an undertone into a bright black focal point while adding new influences such as choral music, kraut rock and animal field recordings.
