I kind of agree with you here. Doolittle is overrated as a whole, but it features some REALLY GREAT songs. The back to back of Mr. Grieves and Crackity Jones is just epic.

I don't like the direction Pixies took after Surfer Rosa, they got more polished and it ruined it for me as a whole while I still really enjoy a couple songs from every album except Tromp which I flat out dislike

Pixies albums have always been a little spotty to me, but theres always just a handful of really fantastic tracks on each album.

I think it might be my favorite

Space( I believe in), Subbacultcha and distance equals rate might be the best sequence of songs in their catalog.

they really got it together for doolittle

they seemed like a band who woulda broken up after album 2, so i think i'm still kinda astounded they didn't and have yet to come to realization that there is (pixies-related) life after d and it's about time i came to terms with it

They should have

That's why the first 2 albums are untouchable, they didn't have their shit together

"Sitting here wishing on the cement floor
Just wishing that I had just something you wore"

That's the style of Pixies I like. That basically one chord riff, that repetitive pounding drum beat, and Black wailing like he's about to just fall over and die

*tick*tick*POP**tick*tick*POP*

Haha, yeah, what I'm saying is that "getting your shit together" is a bad thing for a band like Pixies

They were meant to be another one of those 2 album bands that remain forever in an unreachable legendary status
