I like you. You should post more.




I've personally come to like Surfer Rosa more than Doo Little.

I think you might like them. I don't know, maybe. They're sort of like Pavement, almost kind of. Doolittle and Surfer Rosa are a good place to start.

Wow...I've never heard that comparison before. I guess it's kinda fair (though they're really not all that close). As in: Pixes are to Pavement as the Stones are to the Beatles...or something like that. In their loose style of delivery they're similar bands, but they make their homes in completely different territories when it comes to the tone of their content. Introducing someone to Pixies, I'd probably go for the easy Nirvana comparison. Since both bands take pop structures and twist them to become darkly abrasive, and Nirvana had a collective Pixies obsession which seems to have played a big part in shaping their sound. They also sound like Sonic Youth circa EVOL which was like Sonic's goth album...when they were in slightly sinister mode.

How have you never heard "Where is my Mind?" Are you implying you've also never seen Fight Club?

beetles is the correct way of spelling it,
better example would be bauhaus

It doesn't matter if sounds good to you or not. It's not your desicion. If I made a band I am a elephant. Calling I am an elephant is wrong. Like I said months ago, sorry for being a nazi. You say do you like the band Pixies.
