you experience them as i have found.

of course this is also the only band that is so awesome you need not know the song meaning to enjoy the fuck out of it.

i recently just understood wave of mutilation, anna, velouria, and bone machine all due to recent experiences...

Once a wave sent a surf kayak flying into my forehead. That was a wave of mutilation.

I think Frank has said that he didn't intend "Wave" to be a disturbing song.

I was mutilated by a wave once. No more body surfing for me.

You might interpret it intuitively or some such thing...it sounds to me you're talking about masochism, emotional or otherwise. Is it just because it has the word "mutilation" in it?

Anyhow, I don't think there are any grand, final interpretations from certain Pixies songs like Wave of Mutilation. Lots of lines are referencing events and such, but it's a pretty open song with lots of things to take away from it.

So then whats the deal? You're not prophesizing here man, just tell your tale so we might be so enlightened also.

one doesn't have to avoid telling about their recent experience to give an answer

they could, like, tell more

one doesn't have to cut themselves to mutilate themselves


they could choose paths leading to more and more pain

What kind of "recent experience" made you understand the meaning about a song quite literally about mutilation?
Just asking
