Pros: A great starter for getting into the Pixies. Cons: A few great songs left out, some songs are hard to get into.
There are certain bands that you're just supposed to know, but don't get heard through many popular media. These include the Velvet Underground, the Ramones, and the Pixies. Usually when I feel left behind like this I catch up using either a tribute ...
Pros: lots of great tracks from this band, the live CD is a good addition Cons: some of the best songs weren't included on the studio disc, expensive
I originally got into the Pixies after hearing the cover of "Velouria" that Weezer (another favourite band of mine) did for the tribute album. I was intrigued by the song and downloaded the original via LimeWire. I liked it so I chose another song to...
Ok, let me get this off my chest. I am a complete idiot. I just have recently truly discovered the Pixies. I know, I know, they’ve been gone a long time and I missed them in their glorious prime. Yes, I know that they wrote some of the most well crafted...
Pros: great songs by the Pixies plus a live concert Cons: The best of CD doesn't do the Pixies justice - buy the individual CDs instead
The Pixies were probably one of the most acclaimed and influencial rock bands of the 80's and early 90's. Yet it seems very few people know and understand the Pixies. Death to the Pixies will do nothing to resolve that issue, but it will give you a...
Pros: great collection of songs plus a live concert by the Pixies Cons: this best of CD doesn't do the band justice as a best of album
The Pixies were probably one of the most acclaimed and influencial rock bands of the 80's and early 90's. Yet it seems very few people know and understand the Pixies. Death to the Pixies will do nothing to resolve that issue, but it will give you a...
Pros: Double-album including live disc. Cons: Lacks certain "Pixies staples", if you will
The Pixies are one of those bands that, although they're great, will probably never get the recognition they deserve. I myself, had never heard of them until late last summer. Being a huge weezer fan, and with weezer on hiatus for some time now, I was...
Pros: Great and varied songs Cons: Several songs appear twice
Death to the Pixies is a 2-CD album celebrating The Pixies, perhaps the first major alternative-rock group. The first CD is a compilation of greatest hits, and the second is a live concert.
The album has an impressive assortment of...
Pros: Disc two documents a nice concert. Cons: Disc one is a haphazard and unnecessary compilation.
The Pixies, in my opinion, are legendary. They made the last few innovations that were left to be made in rock'n'roll, and laid down the groundwork for alternative music (but have remained light-years ahead of anybody that has enjoyed the genra's...
Pros: its the Pixies!!! Cons: lacks letter to memphis
The Pixies rocked the world for four short years. Between 1987 and 1991 the talents of Black Francis (vocals, guitar) Kim Deal (vocals, bass) Joey Santiago (lead guitar) and David Lovering (drums) helped breath life into the dying rock scene. Of course...
Pros: First Pixies greatest hits album Cons: I wish it was four CD's instead of two
I remember the first time I heard the Pixies in high school and I could not understand why no one else had ever heard of them. They are by far my favorite group ever. Kim Deal's sexy seductive voice provided an outlet for many of my teen sexual...
Pros: The songs, there exists no such thing as a bad Pixies song! Cons: The songs are very short!
This is a best of CD from the Pixies who played from 1987-1991. Pixies is known for not ever having played a bad song, and since this is the "best of" album, you definetly won`t find one here.
You start off with an instrumental song (Cecilia...
Pros: All your favourite Pixies songs compressed neatly onto one disc Cons: People who bought Doolittle + Come on Pilgrim will probably not need it.
The Pixies have oft been credited as the band who inspired Nirvana to write Teen Spirit with their infamous quiet/loud song structures. However, the Pixies were a brilliant group in their own right. The lyrics, while sometimes obscure, fit the music...
Since pboy wrote 2 identical reviews, I'm just posting another one to cancel his out.
This release is great, containing a compilation CD of some of their best songs and also a live disc containing a live Dutch concert from the year 1990....
