Xiu Xiu - Dear God, I Hate Myself (2010)

Genres: Indie Rock/Experimental
Sounds Like: A man constantly on the verge of commiting suicide
Rating: 8/10
Review: Another album of morbidly depressing songs from the sensation that is Xiu Xiu, fronted by Singer/Songwriter Jamie Stewart they are a constant reminder that some people have it worse then you, and that none have it worse then Jamie Stewart. What actually happened to make this man so excruciatingly disturbed I don't know, but I do know that I love to hear him complain about it because he does it so wonderfully.

The album opens with the song "Gray Death" and this sets the tone for the whole record with the first words sang being "Beat, beat, beat me to death". The next song is "Chocolate Makes You Happy" which is a lovely lament on bulimia with my favourite lyric being "Chocolate makes you happy, as you deign to sing along, when you thrust two fingers down your throat and wash away what's wrong, Oh Oh Oh". The album continues you on with more great songs and some more great lyrics with the title song being a particular favourite of mine "Despeir will hold a place in my heart, a bigger one that you do do do, and I will always be nicer to the cat, then I am to you you you."

I highly reccommend this album to anyone who enjoys to listen to someone pouring his heart out, or likes the sound of what seems to have come from an nintendo DS on their albums. Check it out!

  6. I usually do not leave a response, however after looking at through a few
    of the comments on "Xiu Xiu - Dear God, I Hate Myself (2010)".
    I actually do have a few questions for you if you tend not to
    mind. Could it be just me or does it look like
    a few of the remarks look like they are coming from brain dead
    people? :-P And, if you are posting at additional social
    sites, I'd like to follow you. Could you post a list of all of all your social sites like your twitter feed, Facebook page or linkedin profile?
