You liars the first song totally feels like a natural evolution from Forget. Trying to be all Goddy with this shit. *******

Plane - I do get where you're coming from, for some 'sound' is enough to form the bond, for the artist to convey the message. I get it.



I was maybe hoping for a revelatory moment in there, it moved me not.

Good review. I'm not crazy about mid-period Xiu Xiu, but I think the past 4-5 have been excellent, this included. 'It Comes Out as a Joke' is an all timer IMO

i guess that it’s pretty impressive that something so mindlessly tuneless can be so pleasantly listenable

Whilst that may be true I actually miss the noisier and potentially jarring (as sometimes it can be) Xiu Xiu, this is so lifeless in comparison. Is it listenable? Sure. Is there better 'background' music out there? Definitely. In fact finding pleasant background music that's preferable is so absurdly easy, that I could never see that as a selling point.

Why are y'all even trying to defend this awful album. If it doesn't work without "context" then it's trash, never once has the backstory behind an album magically made the listening better.
