Yeah! the Pixies rock! I learned about them form that song at the end of fight club, and I promptly went and bought all their CDs, goes to show, rock can kick ass! The Breeders are supposed to be coming out with a new album too supposedly.

Yeah. Everyone seems to think that Doolittle was the best thing they did, but I reckon they never topped their debut album, Surfer Rosa.

Oh yeah! Now your talking! If the pixies had not been years ahead of their time they'd have been huge.
Surfer rosa is definately the best overall album experience, really raw and the drums on it are fantastic. Steve Albini (producer) used to cellotape loads and loads of microphones all over the walls and ceiling of the studio to get that special sound of his.

Only thing I've heard from the Pixies is ''Where is My Mind'', and it's pretty good. Laziness and lack of time has prevented me from delving deeper into their stuff. No time for guitar rock lately for me... too much IDM (cringe)...

Jesus christ, I think I remember Nada Surf... did they do some song with a video that had football players and a cheerleader in it? And the song mentioned that the guy's mom thought he was cool or something? From '96 or something.
Or am I a crazy fuck with no long term memory...

how young are you kidz? i saw Frank Black a few years ago i guess it was like 4 years ago when Nirvana first heard 'Smells Like Teen stupid' played back in the studio they said to themselves it soundz like a pixies rip-off
and I luv Jimmy Pop's reference to 'monkey gone to heavan' in 'fire water burn'
i'm not black like barry white, no i'm white like frank black is
so if the man is five, the devil is six that must make me seven this honkeys gone to heavan
except back in the day o'da pixies he was Black Francis or whatever
and the rest of um yeah...
the Breeders' 'Last Splash' is definitely one ub my most favoritist rock albums ever!!

Like a lot of people I first heard The Pixies from Where is My Mind from Fight Club, love that song but havent heard anything else. Listened to some samples on CD Now but I didn't take to it much...
I remember Nada Surf :) I've got Popular on some compilation, I kinda like it!

i liked the popular video thatz as far as it went for me
pixies also had a song on the 'Pump Up the Volume' soundtrack
i think it was a slower version of Wave of Mutilation than was on their album
but that was a big break for them back in the day you know when they were stilla band
yeah and Frank Black went totally solo the first two albums are worth checking out it goes to shit after that
