Default How would you describe Pixies?

Like if you listen to any Pixies song, what do you take out of it? What is your impression of the bands style of music. I'm really trying to get into it.

I like the Pixies a lot, it's just I've been listening to them for close to 30 years so it's hard for me to get super excited about them at this point. I also believe that they haven't really existed as a band since the early 90s and even Trompe le Monde was an afterthought that I've never really bothered with.

I agree with all of this except the 30 years part. And by don't agree with I mean I'm not 30 yet.

I feel like all of their albums have some great songs, but they also all have filler tracks. I'm one of the three people in the world who actually thought their comeback album from last year was good.
