Xiu Xiu - Ignore Grief [Silver Ghost] { vinyl }

Ignore Grief is the intense and deeply emotional new album from experimental icons Xiu Xiu, continuing their two-decade legacy of pushing sonic boundaries. Known for their prolific output and collaborations with artists like Mitski, Sharon Van Etten, and Chelsea Wolfe, Xiu Xiu’s latest record explores trauma, memory, and catharsis through a gripping blend of noise, avant-garde pop, and industrial textures. Featuring vocals from both Angela Seo and Jamie Stewart, the album is split between real and imagined tragedies, drawing inspiration from early rock’s “Teen Tragedy” genre to navigate overwhelming emotional terrain.

This vinyl LP captures Xiu Xiu at their rawest and most daring, transforming lived horror and imagined grief into powerful soundscapes. Half the tracks confront brutal real-life experiences of five people close to the band, while the other half spirals into abstract, cathartic fiction. Ignore Grief is essential listening for fans of experimental rock, emotional intensity, and fearless sonic innovation. A haunting and unforgettable addition to Xiu Xiu’s acclaimed discography.
