Xiu Xiu Interview
The Music Slut just posted a link to an interview with Xiu Xiu front man, Jamie Stewart.
The interview is fairly unsurprising, but will definitely be of interest for Xiu Xiu/Stewart fans. Yet, the interviewer (Noah Michelson) managed to start his piece with the kind of question that makes me despair the state of musician interviews:
If you were locked inside a refrigerator and you only had one breath of air left, how would you describe Women As Lovers?
Jamie Stewart: [Laughs] If I could only say one thing I'd probably just want to tell my niece that I loved her. I don't know that I'd waste my time describing it...
Come on, Noah! Could you really have expected some sort of pithy, insightful remark that sums up an artist's perception of this own work? I'm betting that "laugh" wasn't because Stewart thinks Women As Lovers is his most hilarious album...
