Xiu Xiu released the video for “Hi”, the first track off their upcoming album Always. Directed by David Horvitz and Jamie Stewart, the video features footage of a “crazed” road trip through upstate New York and photos taken throughout 2010 – “2011 Xiu Xiu world tours, including sneaking out during the wee hours to burn dolls in church courtyards, throwing copies of Dick Cheney’s autobiography in a Barnes & Noble garbage, graffiti lyrics next to a gas station sink, and Jamie setting his hand on fire.” “Hi” was first made available for streaming here. Always is due out February 27th on Bella Union and March 6th on Polyvinyl.
