Xiu Xiu (Music) | comment |
Xiu Xiu is an avant-garde rock/synthpop band, the brainchild of Jamie Stewart. They were founded after the dissolution of Stewart's previous band, Ten In The Swear Jar, several of whose songs went on to become Xiu Xiu tracks. The band takes its name from a notoriously depressing Chinese art-house film, Xiu Xiu: The Sent-Down Girl, about a young woman who becomes a prostitute to survive after her life is all but destroyed by poverty.This choice of name is telling. | |

Downer Ending: Almost all of their storytelling songs, as Jamie Stewart has expressed fondness for songs that "narrate some particular horrible things that happen to somebody and there's no positive resolution in the end at all." For an album example, FORGET ends with the one-two punch of "Petite" and "Faith, Torn Apart", showing the protagonist crossing the Despair Event Horizon and either killing themselves or becoming an Empty Shell. | |

Xiu Xiu (Music) / int_5a62e8d0 | comment |
Sliding Scale of Comedy and Horror: Girl With Basket of Fruit is split between deliberate absurdist comedy and genuine horror. Showcased with the first two songs; the Title Track has Jamie deliriously screaming nonsensical lyrics about bizarre sexual imagery, only for "It Comes Out as a Joke" to come along and repeat several lyrics from the preceding song in a much more menacing context, recontextualizing it as being about a rape. "Mary Turner Mary Turner" is another example of this juxtaposition; the lyrics are a straightforward description of a horrific murder, but Jamie performs it like a depraved vaudeville presenter, making the song feel like a carnival act from hell. | |

The Cover Changes the Gender | |
Xiu Xiu (Music) / int_6b6edbda | comment |
The Cover Changes the Gender: Averted. Xiu Xiu have a habit of covering songs without changing any of the pronouns. Considering singer Jamie Stewart is quite camp (and has written many songs of his own sung to men, both from male and female perspectives), this is almost always the least troubling example of The Cover Changes the Meaning in their versions however. Their version of "Don't Cha" by the Pussycat Dolls is a particularly notable effort. Instead of playing up on the joke of covering a dodgy pop song, he sings it entirely straight and turns it into a kind of moving - and deeply disturbing - tale of a man refusing to let his bisexual lover leave his wife for him. They even do it to their own songs, releasing two different versions of Helsabot, one sung plaintively by regular singer Jamie Stewart and the other by (now-former) member Caralee Mcelroy, who has quite a sweet, girlish voice. Though they don't change the lyrics, considering the song deals with the antics of a violent alcoholic robot, lines like "I did something bad, I got in a fight, about drugs, kicked him in the neck" have wildly differing contexts. Though "Fast Car", originally by Tracy Chapman, doesn't really gender the narrator, they still manage it. The song changes from being a blue collar couple escaping for a better life elsewhere, to a young homosexual's dream of leaving for the big city. | |

Anti-Love Song | |
Xiu Xiu (Music) / int_6f77ef8e | comment |
Anti-Love Song: A large portion of Xiu Xiu's back catalogue has made great use of this trope. "Jennifer Lopez" is a sort of open letter to the eponymous singer, asking if she ever gets upset about the fact that her music soundtracks so many men's broken hearts and sexual frustrations in (presumably gay) bars around the world every Friday night. "Sad Pony Guerrilla Girl" is surely in the running for "creepiest love song ever". Best case scenario is it's about a girl having a one sided affair with a married woman, and being unhappy with the arrangement, but too in love with her to break it off. The song also alludes to the woman beating her up, and the line "I am your little girl" may or may not be intended literally. Perhaps the ultimate example is "Fabulous Muscles". It's about a young gay man with a muscle fetish who unromantically fellates a closeted jock, who then freaks out and kills him. However, the song is delivered in a tone that suggests he's relatively okay with this scenario. Sample lyrics: "Cremate me after you cum on my lips, honey boy. / Place my ashes in a vase beneath your workout bench." "Get Up" is about an Extreme Doormat who stays in an abusive relationship because they have so little self-worth they think they deserve it. "Little Panda McElroy" seems to be a straight love song on paper, but its subtext is that the narrator is loving an idealized version of another person as a way to avoid confronting their self-loathing and the relationship is not built to last. | |

War Is Hell: "Support Our Troops OH!" is about US war crimes during the Iraq War, including a graphic description of a 4 year old girl getting her head blown off by US Marines who were firing indiscriminately at the car she was riding in. "Gul Mudin", meanwhile, is about a 15 year old Afghan boy who was tortured and murdered for sport by a squad of US Marines. | |
