This isn't really news about current events, but Pixies were placed at no. 31 in Q's top 50 most influential bands. For those interested, 3rd - nirvana, 2nd - beatles, 1st - sex pistols.
Here's a scan.
sorry it's slightly bent.

I saw that. So "Francis couldn't have written a straight song to save his life". Clearly, they haven't listened to SMYT.

It actually says "straight love song" and at the time of him being called Black Francis, this was true. He even said himself that he didn't want to write a love song, and hadn't done with the Pixies.

Are there any good music magazines around right now? I gave up on them a while ago but I'd love to find one that is even slightly interesting to read. |

Yeah, exactly, lol.
Q isn't bad! I mean, they dedicate a whole page to the Pixies, whilst most other bands get a very small paragraph, place them at number 31 which is pretty respectable and then you say they are crap, lol.
X-Ray is a pretty decent magazine. |

| Careless Talk Costs Lives was good, but it's finished now. I think they've got a new magazine called Loose Lips Sink Ships. |

| Q has always been a superior publication to NME. Have the impression that Q was staffed with people that listened to the music rather than seeing how hip and bitchy their reviews could be. And of course NME rated Doolittle higher in their 'Best Albums of all time poll' than any Pixies album in the end of year polls when they were around - ie it took them ten years to really realise how good they were. |

I think Q is a fun read, even if a lot of it is tabloid type stuff.
