personally I interpreted the mush jerking line as like an extreme satirical take of how women's sexuality is seen as limited/the obsession of virginity within women and shame within masturbation esp since the albums concept is how women are viewed/treated. the music video of pumpkin attack is a good rep of the concept :)) also I think for alll of xiu xiu albums the tracks are separated stories, exploring themes from the albums main concept (e.g in a promise he talks about different life experiences in the songs but the main album is basically all the bad times in his life)
this was the first xiu xiu album i listened to and it made me feel sick the whole day after i finished it 😭 now xiu xiu is one of my fav bands ever. can you review “divorce lawyers i shaved my head” by jordaan mason? i recently fell in love with the album but i can’t find any reviews or reactions to it. love your stuff and keep up the great work ❤
I honestly love this album and the band. I was going through some withdrawals with trying to find alternatives to daughters, but Xiu Xiu encapsulates the same energy so well. I do have to say, Mary Turner Mary Turner is undefeated for the most terrifying song of the album. I had to mentioned it because it’s so messed up that you have to reflect on it; it is the bottom of the humanity ocean.
Good reaction/review. One of the only albums of Xiu Xius I haven’t heard but will now be definitely giving a listen. Really enjoy most of Xiu Xius output. Also you’re not dumb at all dude, don’t do yourself like that yo.
I really fw this album, but my main problem is that nothing really touches the first track in terms of quality Like everything else is really really good, but is not anywhere near the frantic energy and raw aggression of the intro That might just be me tho idk

The album is awful, it's just noise. 😬
The cruelty squad comparision is so on point, i cant believe i didnt think of that before.
Your videos are underrated ngl

youre gonna blow up bro i swear
The start of 'Pumpkin Attack On Mommy And Daddy' really reminds me of 'It's in my blood' by Coil.
Cool insight, love both songs and never noticed this myself.
love ur personality
Awwwww man this one was really good. Made me self conscious of my own lmao i hope you win
Nah dont worry mine is horrible!
Best reaction for this so far imo, great job!
i love the instrumental on the first track with all the percussion and clave rhythms
Definitely death grips vibe from the lyrics, vivid and seemingly random
I'll be listening to this album while cooking
Also you should listen to Uboa's The Origin of My Depression
deadass thought this was Jacob Sartorious in the thumbnail
Here before brad.
u definitely winning ngl
This is actually a great reaction
Only thing I disagreed with is that I think Geogaddi is a very fun album to listen to 😭
please do early Xiu Xiu albums if you haven’t, especially their first three
you gotta check out knife play from xiu xiu its pretty accesible and hella awesome
more Xiu Xiu!!!
Great reaction, turn up the music though
my xiu xiu is broken...
i cant even listen.

That might just be me tho idk
i disagree .. i think pumpkin and normal love are at least as good !
Who even listens to that album? 😬
i made an album scarier, DeePVitaj - i Just Wann4 D|3
