 Pixies - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Pixies would play their second "postbreakup" concert on April 13 at The Fine Line Music Cafe in downtown Minneapolis, Minnesota and a 15 concert warmup tour of the western United States and Canada, culminating in the performance at the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival.
The Pixies headlined the 2005 Lollapalooza concert on their North American Tour and also played at several European venues such as the Reading and Leeds Festivals and in Edinburgh supported by Scottish rockers Teenage Fanclub and Idlewild as part of the T on the Fringe music festival.
The Pixies' third album, Doolittle, featured the prominent singles "Here Comes Your Man" and "Monkey Gone to Heaven." It was a top 10 hit in the UK and reached the top 100 in North America.

 Pixies - Satan Stole My Teddybear
Many of these songs have been re-recorded by the band on later albums or on B-sides or even in the BBC sessions that were released in 1998.
Back in the Pixies' early demo days, the band recorded a seventeen song cassette that was ultimately known as "The Purple Tape" by the fans.
By the time the Pixies recorded their second album - which was another short piece - the band had fully jumped headfirst into an eclectic and unexpected left hand path of jangled guitar rock gone fully insane.

 Back to Black - The long-anticipated Pixies reunion. By Alex Abramovich
But the Pixies dreamed of mainstream success; less an art band, they were more of an inspiration to the next generation of aspiring rock stars, and their songs, which never quite cracked the Top 40, helped form the basis for a new musical canon.
Despite the band's East Coast origins, Francis and Santiago were Californian and Filipino respectively, and the surf music they'd grown up listening to lent the Pixies' sound a sense of space, mystery, and B-movie malice.
And yet the Pixies were remarkably influential: Sonic Youth may have coined the phrase "verse-chaos-verse" to describe their own formula, but it was Pixies frontman Black Francis who perfected the trick of sailing airy, folklike melodies into seas of screams and white noise.

 Pixies - Sell Out - at Rhino
The Pixies are widely regarded as one of the most important rock bands of the past 20 years, influencing a new wave of alternative bands with their loud/soft song structure.
In 1992 the Pixies disbanded after releasing four acclaimed albums and one mini-album in a five-year period.
The Pixies reunited in 2004 for a triumphant worldwide tour that found the band playing better than ever, injecting their now-classic songs with renewed energy and earning universal critical response.

 Arts Unlimited Arts features Misfits that fit
Between 1987 and 1993, the Pixies were one of the most influential bands in the world, creating a sound that would change modern rock, from their debut EP Come On Pilgrim to their death-throe record, Trompe Le Monde, via the critically acclaimed albums Surfer Rosa, Doolittle and Bossanova.
The Pixies reconvened to record Bossanova, although it was notable that, where the previous albums had housed some of Deal's work (the single Gigantic, a co-writing credit on Silver), the new record was entirely Black's work.
An unorthodox marriage of surf music and punk rock, their sound was characterised by Black's bristling lyrics and hackle-raising caterwaul, Kim Deal's whispered harmonies and waspy basslines, Joey Santiago's fragile guitar, and the persistent flush of David Lovering's drums.

 Pixies - Complete B Sides : album review
One of a whole series of best of albums released by 4AD of late, this one comes with two videos in addition to 19 tracks and showcases songs that weren't singles, but rather were the flipsides.
You can hear influences of The Pixies in bands from that period and since, with Bailey's Walk sounding like Nirvana, largely due to the vocals and the pace.
Ordinarily such an exercise would be entirely without purpose, but The Pixies were no ordinary band and, as a consequence, this is no ordinary album of B sides.

 Pixies: Wave of Mutilation: The Best of the Pixies / Pixies DVD: Pitchfork Review
I don't think I'm alone in having thought of the Pixies as an albums band, yet save a few savory cuts, this is the best of the Pixies, its case made on the lack of credible leftovers.
Most of the Pixies' strongest songs are included on Wave of Mutilation, reminding us that they wrote the templates for Nirvana ("Gouge Away") and Weezer ("Velouria"), but the heavily chronological tracklist is a major turn-off for anyone learning these songs for the first time.
These omissions are offset by a few daring choices: the anything-but "Tame", whose finale I still consider the most terrifying vocal performance on record, the summery underdog "Hey", and flipside collectables "Into the White" and "Winterlong" (a cover of an unreleased Neil Young outtake, appearing officially on Decade).

The Pixies were one of the greatest bands of all time, which is a really odd thing for me to say considering that I hardly ever listen to their records, but it's true.
The pixies are simply the greatest band ever.Everyone of their albums has a feel to it that words cannot describe.
Come on Pilgrim is the Pixies as punk rock band, Surfer Rosa is Pixies as weird alternative band, Doolittle is Pixies as Pixies, Bossanova is Pixies as surf-metal band, and Trompe Le Monde is Pixies as total pop band.

While the Pixies did cancel their planned American tour, due to "exhaustion," the band reconvened in the spring of 1991 to record its fourth album, again with Gil Norton.
While the Pixies were touted as the band to bring indie rock into the mainstream, they simply laid the groundwork for the alternative explosion of the early '90s.
Combining jagged, roaring guitars and stop-start dynamics with melodic pop hooks, intertwining male-female harmonies and evocative, cryptic lyrics, the Pixies were one of the most influential American alternative rock bands of the late '80s.

The Pixies came back together in late 1990 to record Bossanova with Norton, but personality clashes continued, inspiring Deal to announce from the stage that the band was breaking up during an English date in support of the album.
He went on to record a string of often bizarre solo albums that aimed for the same mix of noise and melody as the Pixies, but failed to connect with a mass audience.
The band has not yet gotten together to begin rehearsing for the tour, but, given their ugly breakup in 1993, the announcement is one of the most unlikely and anticipated reunions in the history of indie rock.

That is, Pixies tells the band's faithful supporters, spenders and collectors more about what they don't have than what they do, about what's missing rather than what's there.
Meanwhile, the songs on Pixies that did make it onto LPs offer the type of works-in-progress cultural appeal that most collectors and fans savor.
As much as the release of the Purple Tape -- now known to music store clerks simply as Pixies -- tries to recapture the quartet's brilliant reconfiguration of music convenion right before it dropped on the few people that were desperately awaiting it, it actually does the opposite: highlight a glaring Lacanian lack.
