Album number nine for the prolific Jamie Stewart is billed as his creepiest yet—and you can see why. Riddled with gnarling hacksaw percussion, this is Xiu Xiu returning to its angst-spewing, ear-bleeding, bone-rattling, yet always melodic roots. As intense and as self-questioning as ever, Angel Guts: Red Classroom is the sound of an artist getting back to his best. (www.xiuxiu.org)
