In 2019, former Mercury writer Chris Stamm wrote: "Xiu Xiu has been waging a war against passive listening for close to 20 years. It’s possible to have mixed feelings about the band’s difficult discography, but real-time exposure to their music is an either/or affair: You’re either giving Jamie Stewart & Co. your full attention or you’re not. Xiu Xiu isn’t here to soundtrack your life. They’re here to stop you in your tracks." The experimental project will stop by Holocene for an all-ages show in support of their latest release, Ignore Grief, which lyrically explores the horrors of human tragedy through harsh industrial sounds. Add in orchestral instrumentation and some screaming, and it sounds like a fun night, right? Darkwave producer Lucia Luna and art pop artist Ferngazer will open.
