My absolute favorite album in an unspeakable number of years is (no secret), Xiu Xiu's "Angel Guts: Red Classroom".  From the first time I heard this record I fell in love with it...and that interest and that respect has only grown since its release.  I come back and listen to it a LOT, and it's failing to tire out.  I'm not reviewing it here, but it's tortuously odd, wonderfully crafted, and  painfully depressing / soul-searching twist of violence and sexual storytelling...with great balance of synth+drum+melody vs. subtle-yet-effective dissonant/atonal/noise experimentations.

The [official] videos in support of the album are top notch.  Brilliant and fitting and supporting works.

The purpose of this post is to consolidate the tracklisting of the supporting videos.  I haven't seen this consolidated list anywhere else, so I thought I'd put it together.  Please be forewarned, there is some very extreme content mixed in here that should be considered NSFW and certainly not for children.
