Eye on Artists: The Pixies

in #guitar7 years ago


I wasn't too big into Pixies when I was a young guy learning gitbox, but lately I've been listening to them a lot. "Wave of Mutilation" is pretty rocking. Their whole deal is pretty rocking but always a little more dissonant than a lot of other artists, which leads to cool tunes.


The Pixies are still rocking. "Indie Cindy" is an amazing music video, and "Snakes" is cool to. Indie Cindy is pretty heavy showing what presumably is a murder.


Two of the the Pixies most well known songs are "Gigantic" and "Where is My Mind" which was featured in the cult classic fight club--but we can't talk about it.


My favorite song by them is "The Happening" it has some awesome vocal and isntrumental haromonies. "All Over The World" is also pretty cool.

C'est la vie, thanks!

Wow awesome post. I really appreciate your hardworking. You are best teacher. Thanks

Thank you glad you liked it!!

Welcome, its my pleasure.

Thanks, hope the weekend goes well!!

Really the youngest age is the most enjoyable age every young man can enjoy whenever he was young but little after when the reache to old age he can't do any think like when he was young.

yep, so it goes, unless the transhumanists come to power

The Pixies really take me back. That whole era was outstanding for breakthrough music, perhaps the last great one???

We were truest spoiled for choice with bands back then; pixies, nirvana, Alice in chains, pearl jam, smashing pumpkins etc...

yea might be the last good one, gonna have to catch them while still around

Now you said it.

Caught a Chris Cornell solo show 2 years ago, amazing. Going to see Pearl Jam in Prague this July so catch it while it's hot.....

Yep, missed Tom Petty, saw Pearl Jam at Bonnaroo a few years ago

I was lucky to catch Tom Petty at a show in Cork Ireland, bucket list moment.

nice, yea wish I had, C'est La Vie
