One of my top 10 songs of all time got a live make over and I didn't know about it until now.

Fine fine band indeed.

Really enjoyed this version. Frank's voice doesn't quite reach the feral heights it used to, but Joey's guitar work is magical here.

Never really been down the Pixies rabbit hole but there is always a time to start and today may be the day.
Cheers for the inspiration!

My advice would be to start in the middle with "Doolittle" (accomplished, accessible), then go cray-cray with Surfer Rosa and Come On Pilgrim (the early EP and debut LP, weird, wonderful, slightly more avant-garde) and take in Bossanova afterwards (post-peak, but still worth it, if only for "Is She White" which is a banging track. If you're a completionist then you still have Trompe Le Monde and the 2nd gen stuff, but for my money, "meh".

And we're off!

Turns out I'm familiar with about half of this album already. Good start!

Listened through Doolittle yesterday in the office. Was decent. Pixies and The Vines are the top of my list for songs to learn once I've got hold of a new guitar. Easy to play along stuff is my MO!

Watched the Jawbreaker documentary recently. I remember the shit storm in 1994 when they signed to a major. Indie had already lost Nirvana and Green Day (whatever - never were accepted by punks even pre 94) to the major label feeding frenzy. It's a great music documentary about a revered band.

[Stuart.T]

Very good band. Able to assimilate the sounds of many a great 80/90s hardcore band, and update it with their own touch. @neph93 and @Graham might be up your straats

[neph93]

@Stuart.T thank you, I did indeed enjoy that. Will search out more.

Had a serious car accident today. Everyone is ok, but my car is a „total economic loss“.

A moment to hold your breath!

Don’t now why, ….but I was was thinking about this song afterwards.

[A Former User]

Well now you can “breathe in the air”! I’m glad you’re still here. Can’t take this experience for granted. “Don’t be afraid to care!” I’ve had a serious car accident too, but I wasn’t ok. Deep breaths

[Aetas]

I’ll take this breath! Beautiful music by the way…thanks adam.

The one band I have never, and thought I would never, seen live is Rage Against the Machine.  They just announced a new tour.  Ticket Booked!

I'd give my right bollock to see Inside Out live. Their ep is one of the greatest hardcore records ever.

I bought tickets for RATM this morning too! I never thought I would have the chance to see them perform.

I really like Mac Miller. There. I said it

I saw Rage at Lalapalooza 3 in 1993. They were the second act. And they would have stolen the show if it wasn’t for Alice In Chains who destroyed. What a pit. Tool was there too that year. And primus.
