Our Take

Album Review: Xiu Xiu - The Air Force In a world full of boring, generic music, Xiu Xiu swoops in like a musical superhero with their latest album, "The Air Force." This band has always been known for pushing boundaries and challenging the status quo, and this album is no exception. From the moment you press play, you are taken on a rollercoaster ride of emotions. Jamie Stewart's haunting vocals float effortlessly over industrial beats and cacophonous noise. It's like being trapped in a haunted house with a disco ball, and frankly, we're here for it. Tracks like "Boy Soprano" and "Vulture Piano" showcase Xiu Xiu's ability to blend beauty with chaos, creating a truly unique listening experience. The juxtaposition of delicate melodies with harsh, abrasive textures is both jarring and strangely beautiful. But it's not all doom and gloom - tracks like "The Leash" and "The Fox & the Rabbit" provide moments of respite, offering a glimmer of hope in the midst of the chaos. It's like finding a ray of sunshine in a stormy sky. Overall, "The Air Force" is a triumphant return for Xiu Xiu, proving once again that they are true pioneers in the world of experimental music. So buckle up, dear readers, because this album is one wild ride you won't want to miss.
