Edition of 150 copies. White and black tape with UV print and new reworked design. Read almost any piece about Xiu Xiu and you'll see words like 'harsh' or 'brutal' - the same words that appear before 'truth' when an unwavering eye is turned on any intimate detail of our lives. Fair descriptions of the themes central to the music, they sit incongruous to the refined, intricate, and beautiful approach taken in crafting the twelve tracks on Xiu Xiu's 2010 album 'Dear God, I Hate Myself.' The two biggest constants throughout Xiu Xiu's catalog are honesty and evolution. This remains true with 'Dear God, I Hate Myself' as it delivers a look at responsibility, fear, healing, and societal roles wrapped in rich gothic pop music. The sound is still distinctly Xiu Xiu, but Jamie Stewart's vocals are finally effortless paired with vibrant melodies full of subtlety and the distinct sonic accents expected of this anticipated Xiu Xiu release. The result is a record that proves that art can be pop and pop can challenge you to look inside yourself.
