Yeah, I'm behind on shit. Whatever. I just picked up Entanglements after picking up Safe as Houses a couple years back and hating it. It's (not so) amazing (at all) how time and experience changes taste. What compelled me to finally take the plunge was the Xiu Xiu split where they each covered the Smiths. I'm glad I did. I suppose you could call this jangley, you could call it baroque at times, you could call it noisy kinda. I like it though. It's perverse pop music.
Oh, and the lead singer is just gorgeous. I think I've found my new crush.

I can't stop looking at him. It's very awkward. I love the first song. *downloads*
And from a vocalist standpoint, his voice is such a pure tenor. I'm jealous.

No need to apologize for not enjoying something. If anything, you gave this page another bump. Admittedly, I don't really see the comparisons to Grammatics. The ties are tenuous at best.

I don't know why they are so strongly associated with Xiu Xiu, but I think they've been suggested to me every single time on last.fm and itunes. I guess I should finally check this out now. Would you say the lyrics are comparable to Xiu Xiu at all?

I don't find myself compelled to give it repeated listens just based on the first video, but I like the 3rd one significantly better. I'll try and pick up an album if I get around to it.

No...ish. They're associated with Xiu Xiu because Stewart produced part of their first album, has a split of Smiths covers (well, two) with them, has toured with them and collaborated with them. There's also thematic similarity in lyrics, but not entirely. Both challenge gender binary exceptionally.

there is no "full length" per se. this is the first in a series of 5 eps that will end up comprising the lp
Ever the pragmatists, Parenthetical Girls (http://www.parentheticalgirls.com/) are set to release Privilege--the band's new full length--as a box set of five extremely limited 12" EPs on their own Slender Means Society label. These EPs will be sold separately in sequence every quarter over the next 15 months, each as they are completed. They will not be distributed to stores. As the cycle concludes in May of 2011, the fifth and final 12" will come packaged in a beautiful, aesthetically cohesive LP box designed to house all four of the preceding releases, forming the complete Privilege album.

I know, and I'm stoked, but Zac mentioned somewhere last fall that they were planning on making an album at the end of '10 or early '11 as a "bookmark" project to the Privilege EPs. However, now that this is a "15 month process," I wonder what that means for the album. Maybe it morphed into this and that's what he was referring to.
