Sure, Pixies are not dead yet. Wait and see.



Hey, we got "Not That Pretty At All" too - that wasn't too bad.

Either way, what a great time it was to see them when they reunited in 2004. I'm just thankful for that. The shows I saw totally rocked. Never got to see them back before they broke up the first time, and never thought I would, so that was fucking awesome.

To be honest, I never held out much hope for a new album. Always kinda figured they were just a live act, and a temporary one at that. Maybe they'll tour again, maybe they wont. Time will tell. The Pixies are full of mystery..

Death to the Pixies!

Pixies are part of a particular time and era. They were so unique, so strange, and so wonderful in part because we’d never heard anything like it before. Their music was revolutionary and inspirational, but I’m afraid that if they tried to duplicate the sound, it would end up being nothing more than a parody of a moment in time that is now firmly rooted in the past.

I love the Pixies, but I don't want to hear a new record. Is that strange?

talking of REALLY GOOD reunion albums, 'beyond' of dinosaur jr. comes to my mind.


I joined the cult of Souled American / 'cause they are a damn' fine band

Mission of Burma - 'on off on' & 'the obliterati', now theres a band who don't sound any different from their earlier stuff. Different circumstances, though, unfinished business and synchronised mid-life crisis in their case.

my favorite band, always will be, and i never saw them live. i guess i never will.

they chose not to. because they didnt feel it, or they couldnt- whatever.
if they HAD put out an album, we KNOW it would have been great
the greatest album we will never hear.

It was a cover of the Warren Zevon song that the Pixies recorded on a Warren Zevon tribute album.

OK, thanks!
I knew it wasn't a "real" Pixies song.
