What you say No-one has reviewed Life and Live by Xiu Xiu yet. Give us your opinion on Life and Live by Xiu Xiu. What we say This record left our Clint feeling happy. Clint here back from the wilderness and immediately faced with a new album by Xiu Xiu, a band that I tend to hear a lot of people talking about but have never really listened to properly. Well here's my chance. The songs are extremely minimal with just guitar and vocals. The vocalist is terribly tortured. C'mon mate,  cheer up  - might never happen. Anyway there's hints here of various people. Imagine all these lot being depressed beyond tablets  Tim Buckley, Jeff Buckley, Lou Barlow, Bright Eyes....all very fragmented and chilling  - at one point he starts threatening the listener. Somehow, though,  I can't take people who get themselves in this kind of state very seriously. On Xeng records.

About the humble CD:

The CD is essentially a small portable face mirror which has an extra feature of being able to play music (through a thing known as a CD player). These CD's are a modern invention hence them being all shiny and digital. They can hold about 80 minutes of music and apparently are indestructible as you can smear jam on them and they still play (not as nourishing as toast mind you but when you're hungry.....). They sound crystal clear and are tiny convenient things. They lack the charm and warmth of their old analogue counterparts but their portability, convenience and ease of being duplicated make them a perfect thing of a thing for most folks. Jewel cases are the worst thing ever though and they really need to stop.
