"I saw play Xiu Xiu play Santa Cruz, (California) this year. It was a pretty small venue/restaurant. Jamie Stewart's performance was unique. It looked like he dreaded playing "I Luv The Valley, Oh !". The Neo-Hippie's all loved that song & sang along. If you ever get a chance to see this band live..."  [+]  Reply

"this was a really strong debut album, and the song "Gorecki" is a real standout, and it has made it onto many mix CDs i've burned for friends. a snippet was included in the film Moulin Rouge, and it's been used in other films and the tv series Torchwood."  Reply

"It feels like a long, warm embrace. Love the guitar playing and strings arrangements, and Ms Marling is as strong as ever lyrically. Moving stuff, really, perfect for the fall season"  Reply

"w o w this is Silver Mt Zion's best album and it even compares to Godspeed's stuff (but don't get crazy it compares to albums like Yanqui UXO)and I could easily see What We Loved Was Not Enough as their most accessible song. I think it's very good for anyone who likes Godspeed, but also wants som..."  [+]  Reply
