The enigma that is the Pixies. They are like the Beatles if the Beatles stopped at Beatles For Sale or maybe Rubber Soul. Pixies just did what they did at the start, apart from slightly different turns in genre. Catchy loud rock songs are all well and good, but they could of given more. Also I don't feel the complexity of the lyrics matched the simplicity of the music. Just a weird contrast. Nonetheless, one of the greatest Indie bands of all time with one of the greatest albums ever made.

Meh. overall 6/10.

Urban Hat€monger ?

These aren't really written reviews which is what this forum is really for, I mean you've barely written 2 sentences about an entire album.

If you want to do this sort of thing I suggest you get a Member's Journal , which is more suited to this sort of thing and write them in there.

k' im totally biased cause i LOVE the pixies but there are some songs that shoulda gotten a higher rating like

Break my body (7/10)

That's easily a 9/10 it's one of the most underrated pixies song yet it's one of the songs that define the pixies earlier sound..

full of angst and loathing, it's just so raw.. it's ****in amazing.

Nimrod's son(7/10)

Are you kidding me? 7/10!? this is a 10 no doubt! it's like a psycho redneck country song.. and the lyrics are so good!

Is she weird(7/10)

This one is a good review, though i woulda given it an 8, it's not the best pixies song but it's one of my favourites

Crackity jones(6/10)

.............

i am appalled, APPALLED!! lol

this is a 9/10 easy..

Have you ever heard ANY other song where the singer barks like a maniac??

just for that it deserves a 9. U_U

I dont mean to be a jerk or anything, but i HIGHLY disagree in some of your reviews..
