ERASERHEAD XIU XIU is new a live concert with accompanying film that uses field recordings, concert specific homemade instruments, organ, modular synths, vocals, flashlights, electrical interference and elements of musique concrete to express the bizarre emotionality, conflicted sexuality, relentless darkness and singularly unsettled moonscape of this most incredible of midnight masterpieces.
The original sound design and score by Alan Spelt and Lynch serve as guide wires to Xiu Xiu’s sonic expansion of how they have been affected by them as fans and musicians. The original film gives birth to Xiu Xiu’s visual lens through which to be baffled and pummelled by the band’s imaginary unused auxiliary footage.
