The Pixies’ post-resurrection afterlife has really made a mess of my mind at times. People love to go to their respective corners regarding the bass slot moves but, much as I love Kim Deal, I figure that with Charles and Joey and David still doing what they do, the band should be as valid with Paz on board. Main thing is that I’m ambivalent about the (very deserved but endless) cash-in, and frustrated that the new output’s been spotty in timing and quality. Plus, I was just so fond of Kim’s various projects and the sadly undervalued Frank Black releases, (particularly the Catholics stuff, box set pending), and figured the current Pixies engine was sputtering and that everybody’s time could be better spent. The danger in becoming a nostalgia act seemed very real, at least from the outside looking in. But, boy howdy, turns out I am enjoying a serialized podcast on the making of the Pixies latest LP, I really like that record, and I am currently feeling the love.
As with the R.E.M., the Pixies left a smoking crater on all of our minds, so me and Dillo and Mikey took some stabs at some faves. Also included a Breeders classic for good measure.
