Graveface will be reissuing this for Record Store Day Black Friday, following the Knife Play reissue from last Black Friday (although that was delayed and later released in early 2017)



will feature a 7" and a download code featuring more of Jamie's drunk commentary

it ain't perfect, but when its spinning i sure as heck feel like it is

and for an album that's pretty much 110% about feeling it seemed pretty appropriate

can't wait for the reissue (delayed to the 19th; pretty much should expect any future Xiu Xiu releases from Graveface, if there are any, to be delayed)

you could say the same for any of these 10 slabs of chest pain

possibly the weirdest album ever to straddle the line between poignantly sad and just plain ugly
