Album Description

While Xiren's two previous CDs were globetrotting adventures, whisking the listener away for a whirlwind tour de force of cultural influences, Polite Conversation gets right down to his essential pop roots. Most of the songs spin and soar, relying mainly on lush keyboards and breathy, sensuous vocals that land on the listener like dappled sunlight. Elsewhere, the sound is slightly harder: "You Need Me" is injected with pure guitar raunch and pumping rhythms. The south-of-the-border rump-shaker "El Borracho y la Flamenca" delivers an affable Latin pulse and the sound of street musicians in Mexico City. Flamenco aside, Xiren holds his ground as a witty pop playboy, using treats like sweet-cream Beatles baroque and feathery hooks. Polite or not, this is a conversation worth listening to.

This is a great album...Sting lovers, take heart...here's hope........2007-01-12

If you like Sting but are sick of his staleness, this is a great album. Xiren's vocals are great and the arrangements are unique and interesting. You will find yourself listening to the album years later after you play it to death. Very memorable. Lots of soul-singing. You won't be disappointed.

I had the opportunity to hear Xiren in Denver and was extremely impressed. Their sound is fresh, versatile and the lyrics captivating. They are a pleasure to see in person and will be a band to watch for the future. As a Denver reviewer eloquently put it "Catch them now before we have to share them with everyone".
