saw these live tues, all their doolittle, surfer, COP, shit ruled hard. their new stuff really is poor though, i liked it slightly before seeing em live but they decided to cram like 10 in a row and i was going insane.

True, but The Navajo Know is the best Pixies closer honestly

I still prefer Surfer Rosa, but honestly anything recorded by Pixies from 1986-1991 is pretty much just wonderful

I've said this before but these days I sort of wish there was a Steve Albini version of this

i'll probably spin the two of them later for a reappraisal; possibly even all four
i would give ween some time while i'm at it if reading the words 'chocolate and cheese' didn't make me physically ill

"I've said this before but these days I sort of wish there was a Steve Albini version of this"



Another reason why Surfer Rosa is better

All 5* Come On Pilgrim their EP has some of their best songs too

Think of chocolate cheesecake, which is delicious

I love this album, but if you listen to the Gil version of "River Euphrates" it's just like wow the Pixies are really not serviced by this sound. Idk. This is a recent development for me. Certainly the Doolittle material is better for this kind of production than the Surfer Rosa stuff though

Yeah Gil's River Euphrates is only okay... Albini's is one of their best songs though



I think Gil did a good job on Doolittle/Bossanova/Trompe le Monde because Pixies slightly shifted their style from Surfer Rosa/Come on Pilgrim anyway

Yeah I fucking love the Surfer Rosa River Euph

I actually probably still like this album the best though. You're right about the shift in style
