Sonic Youth vs. Nirvana vs. Pixies
Which would you go for?
|
Pixies by about 70.
|
That's what I went for.
Interestingly, Nevermind is at number 18 in the UK album charts. Virgin Megastores, HMV, and a few stored have discounted it to £4.99-£5.99 |
Dinosaur Jr.
|
Pixies.
I mean, I'd pick them over most bands, but [I]especially[/I] over Sonic Youth and Nirvana. |
Don't like Sonic Youth, Nirvana's alright, Pixies are pretty good. I'll have to go with Pixies.
|
Pixies without a doubt
|
sy.
|
Man, Pixies were my favourite band for ages, but i like Sonic Youth about the same now, and Pavement just a little bit more than them.
All of them > Nirvana, but i still like them |
pixies but sonic youth truly had more talent.
|
Sonic Youth are just pioneers of sound
|
Sonic Youth, Musical Youth. What's the difference.
Pixies! |
[QUOTE=Tapeworm]Dinosaur Jr.[/QUOTE]
If that was a choice then definitley but as it stands Daydream Nation>Doolittle>Nevermind/In Utero |
Nirvana
|
although I have liked Sonic Youth for longer and find them to be more talented, they can really piss me off at times.
That and Kim Gordon isn't in the Pixies. Pixies it is |
Nirvana = suckage.
Sonic Youth = Not bad, but highly over rated. The Pixies = Ok, also highly over rated. As you can see, I'm not a big fan of any of those bands. |
Neither are overrated. I know hardly any people in real life that know sonic youth, and people only know the pixies because they've just started becoming popular again. A year ago, noone here did.
|
Im glad Nirvana arent in the lead. I hate them, hate them.
|
I strongly dislike Sonic Youth and Nirvana, and absolutely love Pixies.

I like Nirvana. Though Kurt is terrible at guitar and you cant understand what he's saying half of the time but there is something about Nirvana that i like more the sonic youth and pixies
|
Pixies yo.
|
ehhhhh, none
|
Kim Deal>Kim Gordon
|
Lil' Kim> All.
|
i like sonic youth, but they write a lot of garbage noise songs. maybe i'm missing the whole point or something. they're talented no question, thurston moore is a solid guitarist, but overall, i like nirvana better. kurt cobain is a brilliant songwriter, his singing goes perfectly with the music he plays, and he's a better guitarist than most people realize. not saying he's one of the best or anything, but he's not as terrible as people think.
as far as the pixies go, they're pretty good, need to listen to them more though. |
You shame the names of Sonic Youth and The Pixies by associating them with crap like Nirvana.
Signed, Someone who isn't that big on SY or Pixies. |
er... did you just throw Sonic Youth in for kicks? They have about... zero relation to Pixies or Nirvana (Other than helping Nirvana get signed)... both Pixies and Nirvana wrote kinda standard songs in terms of structure (Not saying thats bad at all, btw) but Sonic Youth threw all that out the window and created something new...
Nirvana vs. Pixies I can see (Since all Nirvana did was steal the Pixies formula and add teenage angst) but Sonic Youth really has no place in this. |
[QUOTE=IhateUsernames]Nirvana = suckage.
Sonic Youth = Not bad, but highly over rated. The Pixies = Ok, also highly over rated. As you can see, I'm not a big fan of any of those bands.[/QUOTE] This is pretty much my stance. I like Daydream Nation and Jim O'Rourke's so I voted Sonic Youth, but I really could care less. |
I'd say Nirvana, then Sonic Youth.
I like the Pixies, but obviously not on the level as most people in this forum. |
Dinosaur Jr.
I should start my own poll. Much love for Sonic Youth though. |
While I have all kinds of respect for Sonic Youth, I find listening to the Pixies so much more enjoyable.
|
The Pixies are better than Nirvana. Just ask Kurt.
Sonic Youth were once a really experimental, avant garde type of band, but aren't anymore. To their credit, they are cool people and put on an amazing live show. Despite what you guys think, there is a link between Sonic Youth and Nirvana, just not between them and the Pixies. Anyway, I guess I'll take Sonic Youth because: I can't pick Nirvana They're the most original band of the three Everyone will vote for the Pixies |

Nirvana where pretty much the creators of Grunge, anyone who can make a genere all themselves, has my respect
|
"Adding on to previous" If you ever saw Nirvana live you could see and hear the emotion that the band let out, with the multiple power chords, and the pained voice of Cobain.
|
i'll take sonic youth over the other two any day.
|
That was quite possibly the hardest poll I've ever taken on Mx. I ended up voting Nirvana though.
|
Pixies
