According to the official Xiu Xiu website Fabulous Muscles is now available on local release in Australia.
However I'm not about to throw out my Canadian import cd or my Free Porcupine Society lp anytime soon. I wonder if the local release will even have the yellow plastic insides.
Hopefully this'll lead to Xiu Xiu being played on a national alternative station like JJJ instead of just local ones like RRR here in Melbourne.
I'll report back as soon as I find a copy of the local release.

You betcha. It's an ok place to visit, you wouldn't want to live here though.

It's just so far away from the rest of the world. Which is good if you want to escape the rest of the world I guess.

i did hear that due to the food they eat, men in australia and new zealand are well hung. like psychoant said, it's a good place to visit, but you wouldn't wanna live there I had to order fabulous muscles!! I got laughed out of hmv when I asked for it... well not exactly laughed, but looked at strangely, like some indie kid who made up some fantasy band fucking hmv

Didn't you get the memo? Xiu Xiu is just a beautiful figment of our collective imagination.

yeah I actually saw the space where it should've been in pitt street hmv in sydney, but I got the strange looks in hmv in penrith, a shithole in the blue mountains, when it was first released.. haven't checked since obviously since I ordered it and all...
