as i posted over in worst_vacation_ever: long story short, i got nine fabulous new tracks today... they're actually older than anything we've had in the past, and they sound great, so we can finally hear what xiu xiu sounded like before they lost their instruments without a bunch of audience noise and tape hiss... they should be up on the fansite soon, for those of you who can't use yahoo, but for now, i'm putting up as many as will fit on yahoo (which should be alot... they're small)... of course, if it won't let you, try again in a few hours... there are limits to yahoo... sorry. the songs are all off of knife play (other than one), and they were recorded in a studio for a show on "stanford radio station"... at least, that's what i was told. i am definately including "i broke up", even though it is track 9, so you can hopefully hear jamie sing/speak the line, "don't f-word with me"... possibly the shortest moment to ever successfully embrace ionesco's "tragicomedy". enough rambling. tracklist is as follows: 1- don diasco 2- jennifer lopez 3- suha 4- anne dong 5- poe poe 6- hives hives 7- dr troll 8- over over 9- i broke up (note: the tracks were unlabeled individually, but i worked it out pretty quickly... of course, i HAVE been known to make track tag mistakes ) (for those of you who don't know about worst_vacation_ever, go here: launch.groups.yahoo.com/group/worst_vacation_ever/ )

On the fansite, only a couple are working. It seems that most of them need a ".mp3" suffix in the link, if they are actually uploaded. Anyway, the other day I got most of them off "WVE"-- they are great. Thanks! _lester

ok, the files have been corrected... you can now download all of them from the fansite xiuxiu.tomstyle.com
if you have any problems with any of the links, let me know... i recently uploaded a bunch of files, and i may have gotten the tracks names wrong

nice!! thanks for those radio friendly tracks. it's great to have some evidence of "the old xiu xiu." i don't think this crazy xiu project will ever stop changing.
