Lyrics:
Fade cream, all erased
I can’t remember who you are
Hear and taste all erased
I can’t remember who you are
The Simone Hotel…
Guard! Guard!
Light a candle, pull the handle
You are erased
And now sow bugs the size of real sows?!
Dear Dr. Duck,
What’s the solution for people like us
Long Gone Harmonica, Boogie Woogie Clair
Sleepy Pee Wee, Junior Little Buddy
Jelly Roll Cacao, Geeshee Purple
Champion Kitty
Light a candle, pull the handle
You are erased
It would be twice as good
If you lay down on the track
Half for the trash, half for the hornets
It could be four times as good
If you lie down there again
A quarter for the gooseberry bush
A quarter for the gooseberry bug
It was the clarinet that made you deaf
Not the coming train Connie…
I honestly loved the album to death but I can't help but wonder how can you make a living by making music like this.
Bless you Jamie cho
I would guess it is more about following the muse into the forest and exorcizing demons than making a living
you gotta kill some peeps
Not to be rude but what out of this entire album appears to you. This is like the weirdest shit I’ve every heard
I've lost track of them the past few years, but they toured like crazy for years and years. They used to come through my hometown Ottawa (Canada) every year, when most American bands never come.
Guess the same way you go about your 9-5, when they’re not recording they’re probably touring and when they’re not touring, they’re recording.
Can definitely hear the Ricky Martin influence
Bahahaha. Perfect response!
Thanks. I needed a laugh...
HAHAHAHAHAHAH
HAHA
XIU XIU IS ONLINE
Thanks Mr ShooJoo!
Its funny; they actually got a PRETTY PRETTY NINE :D
So is Death Grips . . . .
Hello Gordon!
going into this album i had the wrong intentions. i was searching for what i considered "music" which like 3 songs in i was reminded can often be (blindly) limited to a much more narrow conception. after sort of realizing how much i was enjoying just sitting here with my headphones on while these tracks do their thing, i genuinely feel inspired in my own life at how much interest lies beneath the obvious, limited concept that we make of things for simplicity's sake. i am by no means saying you have to like this music or anything but that as soon as i allowed myself a larger capacity, i actually felt just this fulfillment in the enjoyment and inspiration this shit gives me
Aspen Lawler literally couldn’t of said it any better with this kinda music. Im a musician myself and I’m finding myself making more and more electronic inspired tracks like this that’s more about vibe as opposed to constant rhythms. It’s pretty liberating as a musician even I never release the music. I recommend any with a synth or a modular key board do the same.
once I realised that pretty much all sounds are made out of the same sine waves that make the music we hear, it really opened me up to the concept of music as a headspace, open to emotional interpretation, rather than a quantifiably enjoyable thing. It sounds really stuffy and metaphysical, but it was so invigorating. and similarly to Panamera, it really informed my own music.
I just love what you have said
I see a pattern forming. After Always came Angel Guts, after Forget comes this album. Their poppiest albums are followed by their most abrasive. And we all love them for it.
They just dropped OH NO. So I think we should fear for our lives
Fr 😭
Looks like it
well they just announced "ignore grief" and the main single maybae baybae dropped and it is horrifying
Our fears in fact came true
This is the music I hear when I'm being chased through the jungle
I think I need an adult
What an underrated comment.
This is what it feels like when you catch malaria
I would let Angela represent me in court
Better Call Angela
COME TO BRAZIL
Please, come.
yes please
por favor
Lmao
Don't forget to check bestgore before going to Brazil, xo!
Bro is it just me or do the beat hit like some Donkey Kong music???
it's just you bro
THE SHOE SHOE BOYS ARE BACK
just found y'all. i remember once hearing music is really just the same notes rearranged differently, which i guess is true but the beauty in not following the standard structure is xtremely satisfying i have to say. its like taking a deep breath honestly. sure you dont NEED to, you breath fine normally, but it just feels correct sometimes ya know?
I consider Basket of Fruit as Jamie's magnum opus.
Sounds like Scott walker having fun while being dead serious.
hes losing his mind, and im reaping all the benefits! This is great
when has he not been losing his mind?
Calm down, Jon Lovitz
LOL
i predicted after the “pop” album we would get something like this! the video was intense!
I played this to my grandmother on her deathbed and she coded
This is why I've followed Jaime Stewart over the years, thank for giving us your beautiful offerings to this world. This is peace and order, for me and pure expressive unadulterated. My world is unlike what I've said
I need a hug
This video series is exceptional! Angela has created a really special piece of art. With Ron Atheny no less and the Aztec tongue and rope blood ceremonies, Modern Primitive references, amazing!!!!
Industrial afrobeat?
New genre
This song is what I hear in my brain after taking a nap after an all nighter.
angela finally got her pan back from stupid in the dark
I love the sonic textures in this.
YESSSS. that sad redux-o-grapher sample be hittin tho
This song sounds so whacky, just like A Promise
guess u could say it did not cost him anything
wet hole OOOOOOOOOO FUCKKK DUDE GOTEM
minute?
Serj like 2:30
Someone's probably made the exact same comment below but i'm getting Jodorowsky vibes here and there
Ive been listening to Xiu Xiu nearly 20 years now, and Jamie's music still excites me. The videos he and Angela make are still provoking, and i always want more.
ready to
die for
xiu xiu
Sounds like Xiu xiu singing over matmos ultimate care. I’m in
I'm loving the return to their more abstract sounding pop as well as the Alejandro Jodorowsky influence!
YEAAAH XIU XIU IS BACK BABEY
So you know your Alzheimic grandmother, who used to be a top socialite at the Simone Hotel? Yeah, this is her song once she forgot the faces of her family and lover. She may seem placid, but these are her dreams as she passes between the fog of forgetting and the horror of clarity. Boogie Woogie Claire was her favorite song, Champion Kitty, her favorite pet. She doesn't even remember why she remembers those words, she just remembers the faint aesthetic touch of feeling associated with those words but she wonders why she remembers, who is she remembering, why she remembers. Hear and taste, all erased. I can't remember who you are. GUARD GUARD GUARD GUARD
How much more abuse can Angela take for these rituals that's the real question
i would let her abuse me though
@@robbe2350 speaking for the people
THIS IS INSANE.
LOVE.
Me when Im at a family reunion and a random relative comes up and hugs me: 0:24
COME TO EVERYWHERE
all the time
Come on me
They’re not wrong, this is basically what being a girl is like
Xiu sample xiu cant wait
Thank you, Jamie ❤️
OOOO those drums and bass are goshdarn spicy!
I want to join this religion
Can’t wait for the album 😍😍😍
I feel like the cult in hereditary listens to Xiu Xiu
holy shit this album is basically Lolita but even more demonic and twisted
I’m so excited for this album oh my god
this is just hysterical
MY WIIIGGGG GIVE ME BACK MY WIG
Why do Xiu Xiu videos always remind me of fetish pornos? Guess that reflects more on me that it does them....
Funny thing, their album Angel Guts: Red Classroom is named after an obscure japanese porno, and I don’t think that such a thing as a non-fetishistic Japanese porno exists :P
@@Sound8VisionVibe I had forgotten that. When Xiu Xiu still had Jamie's blog up he'd occasionally talk about being a huge perv but I never really thought that it played a deliberate influence in their aesthetic. But like, the whole design language of this video just screams weird fetish porn. I hope somebody knows what I'm talking about. Just the whole surreal, dreamlike atmosphere
@@xXEvangelXx Damn i’ve never seen his Tumblr, gotta check hat out. I absolutely get what you mean, a definite theme of pain in places, the entire thing feels like an initiation on an an astral plane with several emotions being worked through. I’m so excited to see the rest of the videos and hear them pushing boundaries again. I feel like getting all of their gear stolen was a good thing at this point.
@@Sound8VisionVibe what about the gear you're talking about? can you give me a link, please?
www.punknews.org/article/5669/xiu-xiu-has-all-their-gear-stolen@@user-bo4yh8hl7p
I'm so hyped i can't even tell you
What the hell is happening, I don't see a basket of fruit anywhere
Personally I feel that Xiu Xiu excels primarily in the field of erratic, dissociated pop music, but this has its place too, I suppose. Curious to see how the rest of the album will sound.
TAKE ALL MY MONEY JAMIE STEWART
So Holy Mountain
I LOVE YOU JAMIE
"Scisssssssors" debuted at #30 on the New Alternative 40 Chart this week!

Nurse With Wound vibes
rick feels Sorta reminds me something that could've been off of Huffin Rag Blues
This album took awhile to warm up to now I'm to die for you xiu xiu.
The instrumental sounds like a faster version of Get Got
Oh hey.
Oh damn, it does remind me of that.
lol you guys just hear a bit of percussion with similar effects put on it and it's throwing you off. That's pretty much the extent of their similarities.
Thank you as always
Thank you so much that you are coming to Latvia aaaaaa
Weird and Beautiful

I like it a lot. Do images stand above music here?
oooh thelema imagery soooo hot! lol
real ones moves in the cloak ov shadows!
Yas yas yassssss
Yas.
starting 2019 off right!
Can hear a subtle yet screaming Bob Dylan influence
tapping in to something strange here guys
ale zajebiste
Zgadzam się. To jest zajebiste!
niesamowite
w pizdu
You know...just when you think Captain Beefheart or Oxbow have created some of the strangest songs out there you run across this....
try The Residents
Some midsommar ish
Check out wickerman and equinox
hope you come to Mexico... again.
I came here reading about Peter Sotos. Apparently this band says he's an influence - I understand why.
Glad people are liking this its a bit too experimental for me though. Really like always, forget and the twin peaks album because the songs are more conventional I guess. Very cool band anyway!
@inxy lol don't know what that means but you are probably right x
its indeed pretty experimental even for XIUXIU
Im a fan of their very early work as well but Forget was my favorite just because it was nice to see them in a capacity that a whole album listen wasn't challenging. I love their aesthetic and having something I could bob my head to was a nice anchoring change of pace. I'm glad they give fans a bit of both worlds
My favorite part of listening to Xiu Xiu is they always take me out of my comfort zone, and that’s what true art is supposed to do
enjoying this more now and as you guys have said good to challenge yourself with different music so i ordered the vinyl :0
2:21 my favorite part
