Hey you!
Do you adore pixies? Love to dance in the shadow of their delightful music?
Or..perhaps you hate them? Want to kick their hairy foreheads?
Push your opinion around and about them right here! Ihmeellinen!
(I just love them)

Did you know that The Pixies were the first and the only band that sold tickets in Slovenia? In 2 or 3 days. Ufff!

Pixies are absolutely fantastic. They're one of the best bands to have ever made music; Doolittle's in my Top Five Albums, and I'm very fond of the others (except, perhaps, Bossanova).
Have you seen them live, Cultcha?

I have almost all their videos on tape. Velouria is fun to watch in fast forward.
They have such awesome songs, I like all of them that I have heard.

Fantastic is just a small small word for their music! Love love! But yeah, they are fantastic..and more..hm. Doolittle is absolutely a great record, but i prefer the second one: Surfer rosa.
Yes, last summer. I did literal nearly die of "joy- intoxication".

I saw them in concert a couple months ago, it was awesome! I adore the Pixies.
I made a thread about them a while ago, it didnt last for very long.

I got to see them at Brixton and at the Forum last year, which was champion. Some of the best moments I've ever experienced.

Here Comes Your Man! My friend (you can consider him my brother) covered it. I uploaded it but now the host is down. I think Ill re-upload it. I wish you will try it.

I think Surfer Rosa's really a grower. I wouldn't start on it, personally. I can guarantee that you will love Doolittle if you get it. If you don't, I'll bite my arm.

they were here last year, too. with franz ferdinand and ash as upliners. I thought about going but 50 euro is very expensive for a band where you only love one song.

That would've been pretty ace, and worth 50 euro, I reckon.
Download Debaser - if that doesn't excite you, I'll bite my cuddly monkey's foot (I really don't want to as he's nicely made and in good condition, so I'm pretty sure you'll like it).
And if that doesn't get you, try Monkey Gone To Heaven.

thnx anyway

Gah. Let it grow on you. Monkey Gone To Heaven should get you pretty quickly. What else...oh, Here Comes Your Man. If you really don't like those two soon, I'll give up.

Feb 5 2005, 12:49 AM
all three songs are really good. Debaser seems like the best one though. I think at some point I could over-listen the other ones.

Feb 5 2005, 01:07 AM
Yeah, I think Monkey and Here Comes are instantly likeable, but not the best at all. I really recommend Doolittle. You can get it pretty cheaply on Amazon.

Monkey's Gone to Heaven just played on luanchcast. Now I have it stuck in my head. It was the first Pixie's song heard, first Pixie's video seen.
