XIU XIU – La Fort (2024 Reissue) – LP – Sunset Swirl Vinyl

LP – Limited EditionSunset Swirl Vinyl.Repressed on vinyl for the first time in 15 years.

As conceptual as Xiu Xiu‘s fusion of post-punk, gamelan, synth pop, folk, and noise might seem, the group’s music never feels overly cerebral or detached. On the contrary, it’s usually brimming over with often contradictory emotions: love, hate, sex, violence, fear, and humor cling together so tightly in Jamie Stewart’s songs that they can’t be separated. Harsh and beautiful words and sounds remain intertwined on La Foret, which ranks among Xiu Xiu’s subtlest, and scariest, albums.
