A good cover of a Frank Black-era song is The Beards' "Thallasocracy". It's sung by Kim Shattuck (whose main band is The Muffs - The Beards are kind of a side-project thing). The song is on their one album, Funtown.

The thought of Gouge Away by Papa Roach makes me want to jump off a bridge. I don't think I'll ever be brave enough to listen to it

You mean you've never heard of the lost Pixies song "Pixes"? It was on their third album, "Incest on Mars." A certain band, formerly known as "Cocoa Puff and the Apple Jacks" liked it enough to change the band's name and cover the song.

That looks a little more comprehensive than mine, though I didn't include those who covered the Pixies. And those are only ones that are released on some label or other. There must be thousands of other recordings out there. I have a couple of mine, of course.

You mean songs that the Pixies did that were covers? Or other bands covering Pixies songs?
As far as Pixies performing songs written by others, this is what I can think of off the top of my head:

Head On
Hang On To Your Ego
Evil Hearted You
Winterlong
I've Been Waiting For You
I Can't Forget
Born In Chicago
Cecilia Ann
In Heaven
Wild Honey Pie
Watch What You're Doing (supposedly)


If there are any others I left out you may smack me like a bad, bad donkey.
