My theory is that Xiu Xiu just wants to be taken "seriously" now. I can't blame 'em, but ..
I once read an interview with Mindless Self Indulgence.. yeah, yeah, say what you want.. point is: Jimmy said, "Do we need a drummer? No. But that's the only way you can be taken seriously." Which I always found odd but he has a point.
I think Ches is okay, he was much better in stuff like Secret Chiefs 3 (who also has a member of Don Salsa in it now -- have you guys heard Don Salsa? Craziest band I've EVER heard; their sole album starts with a 32 minute song that combiens every genre known to man, then there are a bunch of 3 second noise songs, a Mario Brothers 2 medley, a Rod Stewart medley, and all kinds of other crazy shit -- check that fucknig band out!)....................
but something has definitely been lost.
Still a good band though, of course.
