Xiu Xiu frontman Jamie Stewart and Room40 founder Lawrence English sit down with self-titled magazine to discuss their project HEXA, and reveal the (David Lynch-) inspiration behind each track on the duo’s newly released full-length, ‘Factory Photographs’.
“Before I get started on this track-by-track, I should point out that several ‘pieces’ on this record are in fact small suites. So I’ve taken the liberty to speak to them as complete sets as they all derive from similar influences and ideas. I should also say that there’s a whole other side to these pieces that is shared by my bandmate Jamie Stewart; these connections are what I poured into this recording and it’s important to for me to say that this is merely one chapter of the story, Jamie being the other one.”
