Maybe Fabulous Muscles, it might take you a little while to really get into it and tolerate some of the harsher stuff, it took me a while anyways.

I'm fairly certain that was a prostitute, I'll try and find the story about it.

while searching I seem to have found a Jamie Stewart look-a-like blowing a horse... :lol: :thumb:

2003 seems like SO LONG ago. i actually vaguely remember teh "minor" controversy surrounding teh album cover at the time.

yeah i checked out teh xiu xiu blog in lieu of this thread: i'm sure there is some horsecockblowjobs deeper are teh blog as well? maybe???


anyway. there was alwayz something about that guy's voice i didn't quite cotton to: that overly-affected quivering voice...can't quite place it...

Each Xiu Xiu album has it's own sort of vibe to it.

I've loved Fabulous Muscles for years,

but i saw them post Women As Lovers,

and Women As Lovers is easily my favourite now.

Women As Lovers is probably the most accessible record he's made..

incredible band.

Oldest thread. WAL isn't my favourite, but "I do what I want..." is one of my favourite songs evar. :love:

Fabulous Muscles was my favourite for a while too, and I never listened to the older albums, but a month ago I listen to A Promise and Knife Play and they're so fucking good! :love: :love: :love:

I like it, though I go through year-long phases where I might not listen much.
