I've always hated the way this album sounded. If the drums weren't tuned to sound like wet paper bags, that large room sound would fit better, in my opinion. I love the concept of a garagey, roomy sound (Sonics, etc) but this has always just sounded like shit to me.
@pletchersucks I've listened to tonnes of lo fi, but this is a whole new level... maybe it's just the CD I've got is from a bad production run. I've heard that some of the english runs were not so good...
I first thought this song was a bit weird but I added it to my ipod anyway, after about the third time listening to it I was like ' This song is fucking genius!'
One of the most unique & important bands ever - I rate them a shade below Television & Talk Talk, which is EXTREMELY highly, indeed. No Pixies = no Nirvana. And, Steve Albini did a PEFFECT production job.
The Pixies were by far the best fucking show, I have ever seen in my entire life. So horrifyingly underated. I am such an outcast and I never felt like I belonged as much as I did at the Pixies show. Everyone, everything made sense.. everything that is terrible lost meaning and fell away.
@Benjamintolong Nope..:-/ lol.. Why do you assume so? Do you think they aren't worthy of such a title? They are my favorite band as of right now, this exact moment. I have some ideas for a music video for Something Against You.. when I saw them they didn't play it, such a bummer. Oh and by the way, the instrumentals to your Kaiser Chiefs cover was phenom. Thumbs up man.
I have a question. If I first heard the Pixies in Fight Club, but I still want to download more Pixies song, am I one of those hated "only likes Pixies just because of Fight Club" guys?
FUCKKKK. I could never get over my love for the pixies. I hate how half of my friends only know them for where is my mind being in fight club. it kind of makes me sad!
@dejectedXsubmorals Tatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatatata you're the bone machine. What else?
THIS IS MY PERSONAL OPINION PLEASE DON'T MURDER ME
I like a lot of the Pixies stuff, but I couldn't honestly say I "like" this song. Why do people worship this record so much? I think it's all about the screams like 1:14 ... the song isn't that great but moments like that are what interested people, I think.
@grands1am This is not my favorite Pixies song, but it epitomizes everything they were. The start with the drums, Kim's heavy bass, that crazy guitar, Black Francis's crazy lyrics and his screams. If I had to choose one song to sum them up, this would be it. I hope that helps you out some. :)
@grands1am I like this song a lot, but for me it hasn't got anything to do with the screams. It's a very cool riff, and strange (in a good way) song. I wonder how anyone could dislike it :)
for me this is there worst album, the production is fantastic but the songs sound under developed and gimmiky, still even though in my opinion its there worst, its still a kick ass album
@ranmore30 Wow, interesting opinion there! This is by far my favorite Pixies album, and I do think that a big part of that is due to Steve Albini's production and that nitty-gritty feel that he brought to it.
none of my friends listen to good music they are either into rap or some anoying metal band. im 13 and i dont think i will ever grow out of liking this band the concert i went to was absolutely mind blowing! i was right at the front like 5 meters away from kim. best night of my life
@GandMstudios nevermind is an overrated album its the least hardest album in the whole nirvana cataloge im not a huge fan of the pixies but i like their raw feel and their songs are funny too
Ya some people say they don't like Modest Mouse too, and that's fine with me. Though something is terribly wrong with these people I don't give a shit, they better not show to the concerts with that attitude.
your friends must have bad taste in music b/c the pixies surfer rosa is recognized as one of the best rock albums in the past 25 years according to spin
This is a great album because everything in this album sounds different from the other 80s stuff like the hair metal these guys were cool i don't care what my friends say this is great stuff
