Biography

The Pixies brand of manic, jagged and sparse alt-rock owes much to punk, but they retain their own unique flavour and continue to elicit a passionate following in spite of their relatively small output.

The band was formed in 1985 by fellow undergrad flatmates Joey Santiago (lead guitar) and Black Francis (born Charles Thompson IV) (vocals, lead guitar). They were joined by Kim Deal in 1985 after… Read more in Amazon's Pixies Store

5.0 out of 5 stars A perfect combination to exhibit their talent, June 19, 2004
By 
Andriana (Lemont, IL USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Death to the Pixies (Audio CD)
This is a great example of the wide variety of talent from the Pixies. Although Doolittle is my personal favorite album, I still love that this album provides samples from every album the Pixies has made which in turn provides a very pleasing listening experience. I would reccomend this album to even the slightest Pixies fan because it definately has the best of the best on it...

5.0 out of 5 stars I was diggin' for fire, and I found it right here!!!, April 29, 2004
By 
This review is from: Death to the Pixies (Audio CD)
Wow, what could I say. From the moment I listened to my girlfriends copy of disc one, I was floored. A perfect greatest hits compilation on the first disc...and when your done with that, you havea whole concert waiting to blow your mind on the second disc. Highly recommended for any piXies fan or if your just looking to get into them. This to me is just some of the best music ever made. The 90's alt rock/ grunge scene was the last time people like me would ever watch MTV. The music was just awesome, reminds me of the good times in Jr. High and early high school. And keeps a lot of those goodtimes just coming and coming...ah the beauty and sweet bliss of good music!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Brutal, brutal live album... And that's Disk 2!, May 17, 2004
By 
Pedro Pinto (Lisboa, Portugal) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Death to the Pixies (Audio CD)
Disk 1 is a most competent 'best of', but just wait 'till you hear the tremendous concert on disk2... It's amazing, and with the guys going live again, an essential piece of history and even a necessary item for 'then-now' contrasting. Just listen to jewels like the live 'Into the White', 'Vamos', 'Isla de Encanta' or 'Monkey Gone to Heaven' and you will, if you aren't already one, be one addicted Pixies fan.
