Brooklyn-based experimental duo Xiu Xiu will be back in the country later in the year for the "Always Australia" tour. Xiu Xiu's latest record, Always, is the perfect fusion of the band's electro-pop sensibilities with a harder punk edge. It was produced by Greg Saunier (Deerhoof), with a sound that is simply vibrant.
