XIU XIU has long been known among the music bloggers as prolific, bordering on crazed, but with this new fourteen-song album, each song so different from the next and so fully realized, their creative ferocity is simply astonishing and rapidly taking on new dimensions. JAMIE STEWART has a novelist's eye for juicy details, and a poet's ability to wring impossible emotions out of the English language. The performances, led by Stewart's one-of-a-kind voice, are intense, virtuosic and painted in a spectrum of acoustic and electronic colors that one would be hard pressed to find equaled on any album. Many of the songs feature what is now officially the live lineup of the group, with Stewart and CARALEE McELROY joined by CHES SMITH on drums and DEVIN HOFF on bass. Women As Lovers marries the ancient with the futuristic, each in all their beauty and terror. Traditional gongs collide with a rat's nest of computerized layering.
