Did another band interview as part of a video series here at Wesleyan--this time, I interviewed Xiu Xiu, a really awesome avant-garde group from California. Here's the video.
In a nutshell, very raw, at times emotional lyrics, along with a variety of different types of sound and sound texture.
Check them--and especially this kind of controversial music video to their song "Dear God, I Hate Myself"--out.
"House Sparrow," by Xiu Xiu from Dear God, I Hate Myself (2010)
"Brian the Vampire," by Xiu Xiu from Fabulous Muscles (2004)
