@bilicana these are both masterpieces I agree. You should check out a band called 'The Minutemen' they share a similar vibe and most songs are suuuper short.
OH MY GOD THERE'S CHOPPY GUITARS AND I LISTEN TO SKA THIS MUST BE SKA INFLUENCED. you guys are fucking stupid. just because you hear a guitar sound or a horn doesn't mean it has anything to do with ska. i mean seriously, how does this song sound like ska at all?
Memories... Listened a lot to it when i was 11 or somethin...Every song is very individual.. How to compose as brilliant songs as the PIXIES?! Incredibly... Love it forever!!!
Has that opening riff been ripped off? It sounds familiar and I don't know why. I am confident somebody stole it somehow...Just the riff in the first few seconds before this song takes off.
@joelholtzman It reminds me of a sublime song, santaria maybe or another one; Really does not matter... if anything it is just a tribute not a "rip off" or anything like that, pixies are their own.
@Blainne1 Just to be clear, I meant I think people ripped the Pixies off. I only say this because the sound from that intro sounded like something used. Not ripped off, in a negative way, I should have said maybe sampled/influenced. It just made me think "Holy shit, I know that sound, that's the Pixies?"
@goodmusicstillexists this is definitely ska-influenced which is what blainne1 is saying. more like influenced-ska though. and theres no "the" in Pixies
@MrLnx12 For your viewing pleasure, a list of songs over two minutes... Vamos, Gigantic, Where is My Mind, Velouria, Hey, Here Comes Your Man, Caribou, Bone Machine, U-Mass, Dig For Fire, Is She Weird, Monkey Gone To Heaven, Debaser, Gouge Away... I could give you a lot more, but I feel my point is made
This is one of most favorite songs EVER! They played their third live show ever at WJUL Lowell, rare live show. Charles pronounced "Caribou" as "Charibou"
this song reminds me of getting ready for school...its dark and cold out.creepers. eyeliner. do i have any cloves left? Fuk i hate riding the bus! This is the 80's!!!
One of my favorite in Surfer Rose along with Broken Face/fist, and Where's my mind, and Jugando con la playa or perhaps it's called "Isla de encanta" Brick is red" and number 12 and 13 shit I'm mentioning the whole album almost... Great album, great band -
reminds me college time!!
