[i]Live at Wetlands[/i] is a pretty cool album. The band's performance on Austin City Limits last year was great, so much energy.

Those are both great albums.

Dreww 10-30-2005 09:17 PM

I wonder why Doolittle seems to get more attention than Surfer Rosa. Surfer Rosa always seemed like the better album to me.

Daniel! 10-30-2005 09:18 PM

Because people have different opinions.

Dreww 10-30-2005 09:20 PM

Obviously. But why is Doolittle widely considered the greater of the two? No reason to answer like a smartass, I'm actually curious.

The recent thread on him helped me re-realize how great he is. Good stuff indeed.

I like yo style nigga

The NPC 10-30-2005 10:30 PM

They owe Albini alot of credit though because he basically created that "Original Pixies Sound". With their later albums you can actually hear what they really sounded like, they were a far more lush sounding band which wasn't captured on [I]Surfer Rosa[/I].

The NPC 10-30-2005 11:06 PM

[QUOTE=NachoChez]Maybe Albini captured what they really sounded like, not the other way around.[/QUOTE]

Not at all, listen to the compositions of their other albums and listen to their live performances. They were never a stripped down band in the first place.

Ornery Cephalopod 10-30-2005 11:53 PM

I got a few songs from the new HORSE the Band album.

Dig.
