If Xiu Xiu's "This Too Shall Pass Away" video was a videogame, it would probably score well in Game Informer for it's replication of the existential crisis of severed heads in the modern world hiding from robots and aliens. It would probably be rated as a "T" game for minor violence, too (plus bad projection on the moon language). It would also be heralded for its expansive soundtrack, which stretches the possibility of 8-bit music via its operatic vocals. So what I'm saying is that it'd probably be a huge hit at E3, and it would beat Duke Nukem Forever to the shelves.
Xiu Xiu's Dear God, I Hate Myself is out now. [Pitchfork]
yeah and it gets major points for somehow incorporating a Smiths cover during the Morrissey reference
This is one of my favorite tracks on the album and the video is just superb! So cool. Love you Xiu Xiu.
