Love them or hate them, you’ll never forget them.

Over the years xbxrx‘s style of joyous musical assault has been championed by many major figures in underground rock — having opened on tours with admirers such as Sonic Youth, Peaches, Unwound, Mr. Quintron, Deerhoof and Q and Not U, as well as worked with accomplished producers like Steve Albini, Ian MacKaye, Vern Rumsey and Tim Kerr.

On Sixth in Sixes (the band’s fourth full-length and first for Poyvinyl), xbxrx reveals a newfound musical growth and maturity over the course of 18 succinct and varied tracks. Mating a post-hardcore guitar onslaught with articulate experimentation and intense, cathartic vocals, xbxrx creates relentlessly modern rock music that is as chilling as it is invigorating.
