Xiu Xiu is a US American post-punk band formed in San Jose, California in 2001. The band's primary songwriter and only constant member is [a422427]. With their unique sound and thought-provoking lyrics, Xiu Xiu has gained a dedicated following in the music industry.
Known for their experimental approach to music, Xiu Xiu combines elements of punk, noise rock, and electronic music to create a sound that is both captivating and challenging. Their songs often explore themes of love, loss, and personal struggles.
Over the years, Xiu Xiu has released numerous critically acclaimed albums and collaborated with various artists from different genres. Their live performances are known for their intense energy and emotional depth, leaving audiences mesmerized.

 Previously out of print, 2004's Fabulous Muscles has been re-mastered for vinyl. Xiu Xiu's best selling and most critically acclaimed album includes "I Luv the Valley OH!," "Crank Heart," "Clowne Towne" and more. The music is drawn from British post punk and synth pop, modern Western classical, noise and experimental music, Asian percussion music, American folk, torch singers, house, techno and 1950s rock n roll. There are sounds used to rhythmically push some songs forward in a top 40 way but with fewer straight beats. Noise restrictions also led to more use of single, quiet acoustic instruments. This record is the most pop Xiu Xiu record and the most experimental. It was recorded at home in Seattle and Oakland.
