Ready to Die For Xiu Xiu - Second Edition

"Ready to Die for Xiu Xiu by Flake makes me insane. Not in a bad way at all, but in a way that is hard for my little pea brain and little wizened heart to handle. (...) Being presented with a work by someone who has put so much care, emotion, intellectual love, skill and remarkable attention to detail into that very thing which I am at odds to do opens up so much feeling for me, and such a wide range of feeling, that I am physically overwhelmed by the honour." - Jamie Stewart

A fanzine dedicated to the music of Xiu Xiu. A deep dive into 21 albums and EP's from the Xiu Xiu discography. Featuring interviews with Jamie Stewart, Hyunhye 'Angela' Seo, Ches Smith, Greg Saunier, Shahzad Ismaily, and Lawrence English.

Two Forewords, from Ches Smith and Lawrence English.
