They gave birth to the grunge scene first off, Alice in Chains, Nirvana, Soundgarden, Pearl Jam, they all recognize the influence the Pixies had on their music, especially Kurt.
But damn, the music, wow.
Bossanova is one of the best albums i can think of right now, particually in terms of Alternative, I mean It's right up there with Aenima and unknown pleasures for me.
Come on Pilgrim is an awesome album also. As is all their albums tbh.

Yeah, they're great.
Even their albums which i don't dig as much, like Trompe Le Monde, have great tracks.
Where is My Mind is probably my favourite joint, amongst many great jawns.

they aint shit when it comes to Nirvana or even the Breeders.Fuckin Kims band was waaaay better than Franks shit.
I put Radiohead over Pixies.
Pixies is a must though and at least top ten status in their field

yo I remember buying surfer rosa and taking the shit back.some of you know this story. i worked at a record store and would take shit back constantly. Surfer rosa was one of the first I took back and once they let me take that back I took back all kinds of shit.lmao.the line was draw with a Wu release and I wont say which one I took back cuz its like this
most of the shit IM like "fuck no" to ... I end up later being like "hell yes" to ...even "fuck yes". hahahhaha
so you never know.
But proclaiming a band to be the greatest ... you better make sure nobody else close to that genre can touch rim cuz if so...ITS ON!!!!
