I know, we all love Pixies. But nobody's perfect.
there are always a music that is not so good, that is out of place.
Which is that song that could be banned from an album?
For me it could be Stormy weather. Is not a totally bad song, but kind of spoil the end os bossanova.
and I don´t like space ( I believe in) |

I always thought "Make Believe" didn’t sound like a Pixies track, even a B-Side, and I’m not saying that because of David’s singing.
Generally speaking, B-Sides from Bossanova’s singles are amongst the weakest tracks of the group (except "Santo" of course). |

The only Pixies album I still enjoy is Trompe le Monde. I tend to think it's actually the first Black Francis solo album.
 an undisclosed number of visitors can't be wrong |

Another song I've just thought of that doesn't really do it for me is 'Make Believe'. I'm just not too keen on Dave singing.

Agreed on "Silver." Couldn't disagree more, though, on "Stormy Weather," especially played live. I never want that song to end when I have it on.
 Please pardon me, for these my wrongs. |

Silver is the only song I don't like by them because for me I find that song dreary and uninventive. I'm not that keen on Stormy Weather either because I think its a bit of a throwaway. Apart from those two I feel Black Francis has written very few songs that can be justified as "fillers" |

I (mikaelp75 hijacking Lauras computer) have never liked Palace Of The Brine, Dig For Fire, Tony's Theme, Rock-A-My Soul or Build High. And I got tired of Vamos very quickly after instantly liking it.

You´re going to kill me, but i don´t like too much debaser, altought I think it´s not a bad song. On the other hand, the weakest song of the pixies for me is sliver.

To me the first half of the song is almost unlistenable. The vocals just get on my nerves. It's like he's just screaming for the sake of it, and not because it actually adds anything to the song. The second half is beautiful though.
"The arc of triumph"
agree!! second half is nice, first half a little ridicolous but kind of funny if you think about it

Back to the topic : I often skip "Lovely Day", to me it's the weakest track on "Trompe Le Monde" |

Old topic, but anyway, I've got a couple that are sort of equal at the bottom of my favourites list.

I would have liked to answer "Bam Thwok", because it's the "reunion song", but really, I HATE "Dig For Fire", I hate everything on that one, the tune, Charles singing... EVERYTHING!!!  |

Umm...first of all, I love The Navajo Know...Havalina is one of my favorite songs ever by anyone, and Stormy Weather is a great introduction to it. Actually there seems to be a lot of hate in general for Bossanova, which is my favorite album...I guess you guys just aren't into surf music?
Ironically, however, my least favorite Pixies song is Down to the Well (with Debaser close to that...yea, I said it). |

You're really insane. This song is great. Maybe "Here comes your man" can have been sold out to the popular market, at least, that song is gereat too!!!! |

I still can't see how people can not like Planet of Sound. I always considered it to be one of the greatest Pixies songs, a classis, if you will.

I think the spoken intro to "Tony's Theme" is probably the best part, actually.
