PRESENTED BY THE SUBSTATION AND ROOM40
Known for their genre-blending methodologies, iconic American experimentalists Xiu Xiu defy simple description. Colliding divergent musical forms that travel from synth-fuelled pop and post-punk, through to neo-classical experimentalism, Xiu Xiu has come to epitomise a resolutely personal sound world beyond compare.
The band's leader, Jamie Stewart, is responsible for a dynamic songbook that embraces a determined restlessness without fear. Their latest album, 13" Frank Beltrame Italian Stiletto with Bison Horn Grips, marks their 17th chapter and further expands Xiu Xiu's universe of wonderment and uneasy delight. Their work is a truly individual and an utterly compelling vision of song, noise and harmonic ferocity.
