*Originally released May 17th 2016*

On to the strange and bizarre world of experimental music act Xiu Xiu.  It's challenging, emotional, intriguing, and sometimes abrasive, but there's always something rewarding to be found. The guys also talk about difficult cover art, vocals balanced against instruments, and songs we like when we aren't sure why.

Music featured this week:
Boy Soprano - The Air Force
Bog People - La Forêt
I Luv The Valley, OH! - Fabulous Muscles
Wondering - Forget
