Am I the only one who doesn't believe that those are not Deal's vocals on "Bagboy?"

Did she ask not to be credited?

Doolittle is stronger overall, but Surfer Rosa has some slightly stronger songs woven into it. All told, I would say Doolittle by a nose.

It's weird how well I know those two but don't know the rest of the catalog too well aside from the "Death to the Pixies" compilation, which rules. Sequencing can make a greatest hits album feel like not just a greatest hits CD, and that one may be my example of the best sequenced greatest hits ever. Need to do major Bossanova and Trompe work.

But the comparison between Pixies pre-breakup and Pixies post-reunion really is comparable to SP in manyyyy ways. Aside from the obvious female bassist vacancy - Kim and Darcy both served a very similar role, I think - maybe not the world's best musicians, but also the exactly perfect person to have on that side of the stage.

I'd take SAOSBV1LPNPNFNS any day over Indie Cindy. That album sucked. Bad.

Head Carrier was a tad better. I powered through that a few times to get a feel for it before seeing them live a few years ago, and found myself really digging this song, so one could say:

Might As Well Be Gone : With Sympathy

there is (OFFICIALLY!) no point in ranking the first pixies albums. they're all essential.

Completely agreed re: Pixies, but just throwing out that FoolofaTook has entered his SAOSBV1LPNPNFNS phase of posting.

How is Paz a “bass hoe”?

How is anyone a “bass hoe”?

How does one go about becoming a “bass hoe”?

loyal to no band. goes where the money is. (i.e., zwan, apc, pixies)

i think in zwan to an extent, yeah. but he’s more of an artist/band guy.

i mean a lot of musicians are hired guns.

paz is in a tough spot with it though because the concept of being a musician for hire doesn’t really have a precedent in alt rock. thus, she looks like a band hoe.
