Jamie Stewart of XIU XIU

White Centipede Noise Podcast

XIU XIU is an experimental rock group with an eclectic and at times deeply noisy sound, and lyrics that deal with dark and intensely personal subject matter. They are extremely important to me personally going back to my teen years, and were my direct gateway to the world of harsh noise, specifically through hearing a remix of one their songs by THE CHERRY POINT. Jamie Stewart was kind enough to talk to me about the noisier side of XIU XIU, including working with artists such as MERZBOW and PRURIENT, memories of The Smell in LA, drug influenced sound experiments and much more. XIU XIU FOR LIFE.
