About the event

ERASERHEAD XIU XIU at PhilaMOCA

An exploration of the sonic and visual universe that is ERASERHEAD!

In 2016 with the blessing of David Lynch and Angelo Badalamenti, Xiu Xiu released and toured the surprisingly successful album and concert Plays the Music of TWIN PEAKS. Out of respect and deference to the beloved series, the band decided to put the concert to rest in 2018. After the recent and untimely passing of David Lynch, the band began to receive several high profile requests to revive their interpretation of this iconic music. However, in wanting to always try to follow, honor and continue to be inspired by the incredibly high bar of artistic challenge set by David Lynch, Xiu Xiu is instead going deeper.

ERASERHEAD XIU XIU is a new live concert with accompanying film that uses field recordings, concert specific homemade instruments, organ, modular synths, vocals, flashlights, electrical interference and elements of musique concrete to express the bizarre emotionality, conflicted sexuality, relentless darkness and singularly unsettled moonscape of this most incredible of midnight masterpieces.

The original sound design and score by Alan Spelt and Lynch serve as guide wires to Xiu Xiu's sonic expansion of how they have been affected by them as fans and musicians. The original film gives birth to Xiu Xiu's visual lens through which to be baffled and pummeled by the band's imaginary unused auxiliary footage.

Is it a short term art installation, an exploded tribute to a cinematic triumph, epitaph to an idol, via an entirely new work? YES
Is it intense, odd, curious and shrouded in the gloomiest of nights?
OF COURSE, after all it is ERASERHEAD.
