Music is great, but vocally, man... I really love them... but that's just horrible. They don't have a single harmony right on All the Saints. Painful to hear. Sorry.

That's harsh picpic, Paz is not out of tune at 1:46 onwards
Tight drumming, and rather good performance from Joey
Very good guitar sound by BF
Also, Sad Punk is back in the setlist

Have to agree with picpic on this one.
Music is great, vocals are bad.
Music reminds me of Julee Cruise type stuff. |

Sdon: as I said, the music is good. Except the usual Joey glitches, but that's part of the Pixies experience ! But the vocals are not. Like they can't hear each other trough their in-ears or something. Been that way since the IC tour sith Paz. Shattuck sounded better vocally. Paz is great on every level but her vocals are off most of the time.

I agree Sdon re: TSP vocals sounding a bit tired, but man it's amazing that he's still up there doing this song at all. Tame and a few others also just boggle my mind, thinking about what his vocal chords must look like after doing these songs 25 years.
Not sure if everyone will disagree with me, but I can't help but wonder if there is a mental debate in him as to whether he should have just let the Pixies' beautiful corpse rest in peace, with the last performances of The Sad Punk et. al. being what they did in early 90s, or if it was worth it (not speaking financially) of resuscitating the body. This isn't your father's Sad Punk.

Also Sdon, didn't you call The Sad Punk the Pixies' Epitaph?
I think that's right on the money. |
