This three-piece crafts sickeningly intimate art that is equally sensual and icy. With damaged, wraithlike dance beats and grim electro minimalism, it cuts you like nails across bare thighs, but just the same, it'll brush your hair from your face, look deep into your eyes, and say, "I feel the same as you sometimes. We're not too different, are we?" Xiu Xiu and friends do this and more on this new double CD set of covers and remixes. The first disc features covers by Sunset Rubdown, Devendra Banhart, Kid 606, Larsen, Oxbow, Marissa Nadler, and more, while the remix half features Gold Chains, Cherry Point, Warbucks, Xiu Xiu, and more.

User Reviews

   Hobart Frolley - Brentwood, NY, USA
There is a ridiculous amount of talent on this release. One of my favorite members on the tigerbeat6 roster Kid606 contributes a cover and remix that alone are worth getting this for. Her Space Holiday completely reinvent I Love The Valley OH! as a more upbeat celebration of self-destruction that the anxiety ridden original, and Marisa Nadler turns Clowne Town into a twanged-out indie-pop song. Sunset Rubdown also contributes a re-interpretation of Apistat Commander. This collection left me floored amazed at the brilliance on display.
