  • 0:57 FAIL

  • me loves pixies! one of the best still rock these records alot!

  • Im trying to get pixies tickets for the uk.

    A WAVE OF DESPERATION!

  • 0:57...that makes the video 100x better lol

  • why did he get so fat. i dont get it.

  • It's just me? 0:58

  • @roey964 I know, so funny

  • @Sethsm1 You need to be the size of frank black to hold all that talent

  • la mejor banda de todos los tiempos sin lugar a dudas!

  • LOL! missed the stick man. Atleast you can tell they have fun.

  • @EatingABombs He didnt miss the stick. Thats how the song is, Frank Black is too good to do something like that.

  • @Moonsidewalker Your probably right man. I love the pixies either way.

  • damon wayans on guitar? isn't he still doin my wife and kids?

  • @HartsChannel

    He's doin your wife AND your kids?

  • They look kind of like, you're weird uncles band that he's always telling you to go see, but that only makes them so fucking awesome.

  • Love em

  • @LakeShaman That'll be Chas I guess.

  • i cant believe that there are people actually critisizing frank black's singing

  • @atthemodestyouth I know! It's like, some people are totally above criticism, man. Like, ever. Right?

  • Frank Black's voice has gone to fuckin hell.

  • I just cannot make up my mind, which song is more perfect, this, or The Hand That Rocks The Cradle by The Smiths, it's close! and I reckon I won't ever be able to decide

  • @Iberotimuka Wow, nice to read that someone else loves The Hand That Rocks The Cradle. As much as I love Wave of Mutilation, I'd have to vote for the Smiths ..... that song always leaves me with chills...

  • @wdrauch Morrissey's great, although I think he's gone on too long, then again what else could he have done with his life, some are born to be icons. I'm a musical whore in all fairness, I love this song, Your Silent Face by New Order, The Hand That Rocks The Cradle, Velouria also by the Pixies and Lounge Act by Nirvana. I was an adolescent in the late 80s/ early 90s in the UK so was heavily influenced by the Madchester / indie years prior to what you could call the sell out of Brit Pop.

  • 0:57 - thats really alternative! :-D

  • @ Kman517 - The singer needs to sing it right???? When you've written the song, any way you want to sing it is the right way.

  • The singer needs to sing it right? I think you meant THE SINGER CAN DO NO WRONG!

  • Lol @ the drummer. And the singer needs to sing it right. But AWESOME song!

  • about time....

  • That was the one thing that would have topped off Fight Club, if it had ended with a Pixies song...... Oh wait.

  • lol he drops is sticks and yet you cant even tell if you were just listening to the music, they are just perfect. they have fun, other bands do it for the money but not these guys. Kim deal is so poor that she still lives with her mother, her only possession is her bass. Amazing band.

  • @Gasmaster27 Whoa! Kim Deal lives with her parents to help her father take care of her mother, who has Alzheimer's disease. Kim's been a millionaire since her huge success with the Breeders in the mid-90s, she owns her own home in Dayton and another one on Nantucket Island. And she has far, far more gear than the bass(es) she uses in the Pixies. Jesus Christ.

  • Do you think that Black Francis fucked Kim Deal? If I were him in the early 90's, I would try!

  • @Steffaneq shut up.

    no being is worthy.

  • lol i think its so funny, i like the pixies i love this song but i wouldnt know a lot of their other songs if someone asked. i think its funny the lead singer he's seems like he's not trying or something?but he sounds perfect, the drummer dropped his stick at 1:00 lol n the bass chick? is over there laughing at em lol and they're still so amazing for some reason

  • @sage6105 well i suggest you buy their albums if you don't know their other songs. They are all as good as this here song !!!

  • 0:58 awesome hehe :D

  • ME ENCANTA ESTA BANDA SOY CHILANGO Y MEGUSTAN TODAS SUS ROLAS QUISIERA CONOSER A UNA CHICA QUE LE GUSTE ESTE GRUPO COMO AMI .......

  • @326richi yooo !!!los amo con todo mi corazón....los veras en el metropolitan? a mi me quedan mas cerca en San Diego USA!!!!! y ya tengo mi ticket!!

  • Better than before

  • lol dave

  • they make it look like the easiest thing ever. Just write a couple of lines, add brilliant music and there you go...........

    Cant wait for their TLV concert in 2 months!

  • This is for killing somebody, the uk surf version is for burying the body afterwords and having a beer! =P

  • uk surf is a slower version

  • can anyone tell me what they mean when they have (uk surf) tacked on at times at the end of this song title? thanks!

  • @Terrapin7171 In the movie "Pump up the volume" with Christian Slater they made a new version aka UK surf It's much slower very good though.

  • @Frankificationify Thankyou very much! I've always wondered.

  • its a totally different version of the song, much slower and also a version which many fans prefer evne to the original. u should check it out!

  • @THeEraSerr Thankyou! I will...

  • i see it as a fail but then a win because he didn't miss a beat and if you didn't see it you wouldn't know it happend

  • Faved for 0:57

    and I love this band

  • haha drummer fail at 0:57

  • @Daytonl1995 No. A drummer win!

  • Least he didn't miss a beat

  • i tried doing that drum stick trick while playing rock band and failed. But this is probably one of the best songs to play on the game with the drum.!

  • Nice stick throw David lol

  • The pioneers of alternative rock!

  • @HiImJerry8 Dunno if they were pioneers of alt rock. Still good though.

  • ha

    the feckin drummer 0:58

    great band, great song

  • not too cool :(

  • 0:58

    best band ever!!!

  • Yeeaaahhhhh!!!!

  • THATS HOW ITS DONE!!!!!

  • I know, it's weird! Everything they've ever done just seems complete and as naturally brilliant as it could be.

  • i love the guitar solo.

  • one of the best...a brilliant written song..

  • Perfection, though natural and musical. This is how a modern rock band is and should be.

  • Two minutes and seven seconds of thundering fucking brilliance.

  • weh eh eh eh ehhhhhhhhave.!!!

  • pixies ftw

  • That motherfucker should be skull fucked for talking shit about Black Francis.

  • great song!! I love it....:-)

  • 0:58 FAIL!

  • LOL

  • at 1:57 when the drummer throws his stick up and catches is fucking sick. i love this. also amazing performance

  • And at about 0:58 when he throws his stick up and... Well. =)

    It's great that he can make it sound so flawless though.

  • lol yah i like how he still smashes the cymbal even though there is a drumstick in his face

  • lol i didnt notice that before. he is so rad. im trying to learn how to do that lolz. so far im not even close. :\ its hard to like time it i guess. and i need more sticks lol.

  • i love the drums in this

  • I love how Kim just laughs at him.

    haha.

  • The Doors aren't even in the same genre or era as the Pumpkins, so who gives a fuck?

  • Drummer Fail. lol epic

  • /watch?v=zC-vuCUmNhA

    he does better there, about 3:50 in

  • ahaha the drummer at 0:58

  • I lol'd too xD

    this happens sometimes :)

  • Lmao ya that was funny,still rocks tho

  • the guitar in this song is kickass

  • I hate Rock band and thoses games. But i have to thank it for introducing me to the Pixies. Then the Pixies introducing me to The Breeders. I love both bands.

  • thats the problem with people who are just negative. If it wasnt for covers of songs by some people (look at James Blunt covering where is my mind) and things like Rock Band a lot of people wouldnt know about bands like this. Thats why any way getting your song out there is good, its whether the song is good or not if people listen. SO people have to stop bitching and simply let songs be songs.

  • EXACTLY.

    sure, sometimes covers aren't "as good" as the original, but they help immensely to promote the original band. it's a GOOD thing.

  • Valid points, but...it's James "Rhyming Slang" Blunt!!

  • lol james blunt lol wtf. Having 'inherited' all my uncles stories and albums i got into these bands, but i would have thought you'd say Fight Club. lol Where the fuck have all the nihilists gone? now there are just a bunch of whiny pretentious teenagers.

  • thank you

  • I just came for the Pixies, but since this discussion was already started before I got here...

    Video game companies don't produce good music anymore than the Pixies produce a good video game. Companies hire musicians, or pay royalties for music use, hence the good music they can use is made by good musicians.

    Video games are just another medium, like jukeboxes or radio or the internet. I never heard the original "Tainted Love" until GTA San Andreas. Nothing beats live shows, though.

  • The video game industry hasn't actually produced a lot of music, they have just provided another means to find it.

  • Problem with finding a band/song via video game is now some people make that conection...like "Hey, isn't that the one song from that one video game"?

    "No, it isn't. It appeared on that video game but it was originally from this album...blah, blah, blah." It's like someone doing a cover of an older song and people only know of the cover and the band who covered the song. Most of the time people don't bother to listen to the older version when they do know it is a cover.

  • i didn't get this from RB, i got this from my father, he was a rocker

  • It boils down to this: video games are ENTERTAINMENT.  Music is just that, MUSIC.

  • Maybe the video gamers should get off their asses and go out into the world to find something for themselves.

  • very who care if you find over a band through a video game why do you think they put song on a video game.... more exposure who give a fuck it doesn't make them any different

  • genial la parte de la bateria q se le caen los palitos ejejej

  • it is sad if that statement is true, you shouldve have known who the pixies, radiohead, red hot chili peppers.... were before rockband

  • True that.

  • amen brotha

  • i did : ) and i'm even too young for the pixies

  • lol at 0:59

  • so much love from the Euro fans!

  • fuckin hell he sounds terrible live

  • 0:59 secs... lol

    He must practice a lot more those movements with his sticks...

  • YEAH HE REALLY SHOULD

  • Good song. I'm looking forward to Doolittle on Rock Band for Tuesday.

    To the guys who say Rock Band ruined songs, fuck off. Why do so many people who don't play the game think it's retarded? It's always, "Oh, god learn the real thing," or, "That game RUINED this song for me." Really, just shut up. The game is for people to have fun. We don't play it so that we have the skills in the future to play real guitar, it's just so that we can feel like we're jamming along to some of our favorite songs.

  • this is the song that made me fall in love with them :)

  • Don't laugh about Dave mistake with the drumsticks, he wasn't trying to be or look cool, he's cool for just for being part of The Pixies :)

  • ye i was thinking this wud be much heavier too. fortunately i was pleasantly surprised wen i realised this was a fucking brilliant song

  • ok little boy just a note for future reference to avoid sounding fucking stupid u should say the ORIGINAL ALBUM VERSION is sooooo much better instead the of the fucking rock band version

  • i am still on the fence about rock band releasing the pixies album. I wanna like their songs, but for some reason it ain't doing anything for me. BTW rock band's version is the master recording.

  • 3 words buddy, Have a beer. You'll feel better, and if not, then atleast you'll have a beer, no?

  • OH NOES PEOPLE ARE BEING INTRODUCED TO MUSIC THROUGH A VIDEO GAME OH NO WHATEVER SHALL WE HARDCORE MUSIC FANS DO?

    It's a platform for people to find new music. Deal with it.

  • Rock band isn't about teaching people to play, its just having fun. Get a group of friends, some cold ones, then just kick back and lt the mayhem ensue. Be glad they include some decent songs, it could have been a series of stupid songs from Fall out Boy and shit like that.

  • Exactly, Rock Band is more than just a game, it's a new way to experience music. I am only 16 and I've been listening to rap and hip hop for the longest time, but now I recently have been downloading mainly Classic Rock, Black Sabbath, The Who, Rush, Iron Maiden, as well as stuff that isn't even on Rock Band like Led Zeppelin!

  • Doppleganger? i was about to say the exact same thing you just said word by word

  • Hey Don! Aren't you on the RB forums?

  • Yup Yup!

  • Wow its sad that it takes a video game to show you good music

  • Why? I was born in '91, am I supposed to automatically like bands that were popular before I was even born?

  • I was born in 92 and i liked most of these bands befor rock band the who and sabbath and the pixies all them i was introduced to way bef0r rock band

  • Congrats, your lucky to have had that exposure to this music that I didn't.

  • I was born in 1995 and I loved radiohead, joy division and pixies way before I knew what rock bend was. 3 great bands that were before my time. And Joy Division isn't even on rock band.

  • You loved Radiohead, Joy Division, and Pixies... but?

    Why past tense?

  • yeah, Idon't know why I put LoveD

  • add the cure then have them all play and you have a lineup made by god himself

  • The video game industry has produced so much wonderful music over the past 20 years that it would make you cry. Music is a huge part of video games, and personally I find it asinine to suggest that it's sad to be introduced to good music through a video game, since most of the original video game music out there (material composed by actual video game companies) is beautiful, wonderful, and just as catchy as anything you probably like.

  • lmao!

    you're so fucking stupid.

    how old are you 11?

  • Frank really let himself go over the years.

  • LOL the drummer dropped his stick. lol. good song tho.

  • lol trying to be cool

  • real fucking talent right here. excellent song

  • KEITH Moon Kicks neil pert's ass in style, power and speed. He also has the best fills of all time. R.I.P. Keith Moon

  • More guitars less guns!!!

  • That whammying killed that one part, but this song is awesome.

  • You fail.

  • fail what?

  • wel then fuck you man

  • Love the Pixes!!

  • that drummer knoes whahes doing most people would get f*cked up by that but he just kept using his left hand while his righty was recovering. still funny though.t

  • i love this song but i do prefer the slower version

  • lmfao at losing the sticks.... I've seen bands be in the middle of a song and snap strings, it's quite fun when the whole thing stops, or they try to cover it somehow, ahaha. But I'm a musician, so I can't say I haven't had my fair share of f8ckups, so.

  • Ya, shit happens when you play live music I guess. But God they still rock these songs!

  • Lol at 00:58. Hey, was Kim Deal laughing at the drummer after he messed up? It looked like it.

  • That was pretty funny seeing her laughing. Good recovery on his part. Both versions of this song are so good, I don't know which I like more.
