long-standing bands who still nailed your balls during their later years

[Elphenor]

No it's not unpopular or no it's not true?

[Mals Marola]

no it's yer opinion so naturally it's the duty of the "zeitgeist" to smite it by the pow'r of god & heaven

[Mals Marola]

tbf a whole lot of people prefer surfer rosa, lol

[Elphenor]

"I Bleed" is really good too though

[Elphenor]

Debaser is weak sauce

Boris definitely still slay from time to time, but I reckon their catalogue has been pretty scattershot the last few years.

I think this is a pretty true statement for Surfer Rosa and Come on Pilgrim.

I like everything they do, more or less, especially the collaborations

[Sonic Johnny]

Elph just stop would you, this will go nowhere.

[Elphenor]

I'm just saying they're one of my favorites, even if I don't like all the albums the same

yeah but like, someone is trying to bring the debate on which pixies albums are best to an end by saying let's just agree the pixies are a great band and you're all like i agree except just the albums i like.

do you get how that is dumb and obnoxious man?

[Sonic Johnny]

Mals he's not actually a troll, he's just a young'n with more opinions than life experience at this juncture.

[Mals Marola]

i remember being 20 like it was yesterday
well, 4 years ago at least!

kinda thought that was the time people stopped giving a fuck about things like "coolness" and whatnot considering that was a trip i'd undergone when i was 15 or so perhaps, but i guess different strokes for different folks really is a more potent proverb than i'd previously thought

[Mals Marola]

actually now that i think of it the 20-yr-olds i know from cali are pretty "tragically hip" themselves so, i don't know

i guess there's just something in the air over there

sorry elphy!

[fuzzyroes]

Surfa Rosa is pretty sweet, But it's hard for me to pick a favorite. River euphrates is right up there for my favorite Pixies track though.

Outta the 4 full-length albums I actually think Doolitle might be my least favorite. The other albums have so much more variety

[fuzzyroes]

[slunken]

Billy was right when he said that ppl experience music in a vaccuum now. It doesn't matter if the music is from the 20s, 60s, or 80s, it's all right there for you and you can timetravel indefinitely to any time period you wish and just live there

[slunken]

also,

HEY

[fuzzyroes]

It's a good song, but it's not one of their best.

I'm always surprised that this song failed as a single. Seemed like a track that would really cross over into the mainstream...



May have been a little too ahead of it's time in 91.

But fuck ,these guys were so cool in their day... It's a shame that they broke up

Being contrary for the sake of it is not a shortcut to being interesting

Fuck you little kid

I love how guys like poots are into pixies because of fight club

But they still shit all over indie rock

[sppunk]

Built to Spill springs to mind.

[Trotskilicious]

Fuzzy displying how much he cares abt the mainstream he says he doesnt care abt

Another pixies/dino jr fan that wastes no time in shitting on obscure indie rock. I guess you have to be around 20 yrs and in the right movies to be legit

Because of what you post

[Trotskilicious]

Im sorry you compared the fall to devo and shit on stuff you havent heard of. If thats not reflective of your musical curiosity then maybe you should think abt the things you post

[I'm Hardcore]

there is absolutely nothing 'hipster' about Swans. grasp it.

[fuzzyroes]

Lmao. Swans are a total hipster staple these days. Doesn't mean the musics bad, but they're a band that a lot of douchebags use as an identity staple...Much like suburban white-kid gangster wannabes use Eminem as an identity staple.

It's not bad... It just doesn't do much for me... Theres like 6 or 7 other songs on Trompe Le monde that are much more worthy of praise.
