Kurt Cobain said " I was basically trying to rip off the Pixies. I have to admit it. When I heard the Pixies for the first time, I connected with that band so heavily that I should have been in that band-or at least a Pixies cover band. We used their sense of dynamics, being soft and quiet and then loud and hard."

It's funny, they're one of those volcanic, lightning-in-a-bottle chemistry musical units where you couldn't replace any of the members, but unlike most of those groups where in their younger days they seem tight like a gang, the Pixies ALWAYS seemed like this awkward group of misfits on the verge of telling each other to fuck off haha

+mywhychromosome Have you seen the documentary of their reunion? That's well worth seeing, and it would totally support your conclusion, b/c none of them act like their buds with a single other band member. Like they all just met on some message board, and freakishly happened to have musical chemistry when they didn't care a whit about each other off stage. That may be a complete misimpression, but the doc has this sequence where they are all sitting around each other, but they're doing the equivalent of looking at their phones. Drummer is space drumming, some dude is reading.. I don't remember exactly.. but the gist is.. we have nothing more to say to each other. They seemed like they all had good professional relationships, but it was like an office where you would never hang out with the people you work with. But the music sounding NOTHING like that. It sounded like they were born to work with each other. Black's voice was perfectly complemented by Daal's and there was just nothing missing. I didn't blame anyone who didn't like them or thought they were too messy.. one of those bands where your emotions take over or they don't. So to some people, they're gods, and some people their just noise.

Sancho Quixote That's a good point about the "some people they're gods, others just noise" thing...Pixies are almost a good 'test' band in that regard, to see if someone is on the same cracked mental wavelength as you are, because you can't 'learn' it, you either hear one thing or the other. As for the documentary, I did see it once years ago, and I remember being vaguely disappointed at the time that they were so awkward with each other, but I chalked it up to "well, it's a reunion years-and-years later, even the closest bands can get awkward like that when they get old". But the point I was making with this video was that it shows Pixies were ALWAYS awkward like that with each other, even in their heyday

I did not know about the Pixies until I was 12 and I became obsessed with this band way before I became obsessed with others who became so mainstream. I always wanted to learn how to play some of their songs on guitar. I'm 36 now and am still obsessed with this band! Most underrated band of all in my view. Also Kim Deal's band "The Breeders". Fucking awesome childhood music I had with these likes. THANK YOU VERY MUCH for sharing I'm lucky to find this on youtube!! xx

So lucky to have seen them at this time in London, opened for Throwing Muses and completely blew the roof off. When the main band came on, they exclaimed 'How do we follow that ?'
