I first got into the Pixies with Doolittle but I do like Surfer Rosa way more.

I got tired of the Pixies before I got to Bossanova and Trompe Le Monde.

True.

Surfer Rosa is my favourite one. I can't stand Doolittle apart from a few songs, weird eh?

lechaoscestmoi 10.02.2008 03:56 PM

surfer rosa is alright but DOOLITTLE is really where it's at, one of the best rock albums ever

Pax Americana 10.02.2008 06:04 PM

I really do enjoy all their albums, but Surfer Rosa is probably my fav.

EMMAh 10.02.2008 06:07 PM

Surfer Rosa, no doubt about it.

Trompe Le Monde was my first Pixies album. I honestly didn't know what to think about it at first. I've since purchased and repeatedly listened to all of the others... and Trompe has actually become my favorite.

I have genuinely grown to love that record.

Bossanova is (for me) their absolute worst.

gmku 10.02.2008 06:22 PM

Each album has its charms, and I like them all very much. Come On/Surfer is abrasive punk (sort of). Doolittle is accessible pop rock (even sounds R&B-ish here and there). I think of Bossanova as space surf. Trompe is like straightahead classic rock (sort of).

Doolittle

Favorite songs:
-Hey
-Weird at My School
-Velouria
-Vamos
-Isla De Encanta

SuperCreep 10.02.2008 06:37 PM

Doolittle, but I love all of them.

Velouria is delicious. Great song.

Sonic Youth 37 10.02.2008 06:47 PM

Yes it is. It is about the only great song on Bossanova, the rest are just meh, even when compared solely to Trompe le Monde

gmku 10.02.2008 06:55 PM

Really. I like almost all of Bossanova. I have to be in a certain mood though. Summer dazed surfer dude mode, sort of.

SuperCreep 10.02.2008 06:58 PM

I have to be in the mood for the Pixies in general these days. I'm really burnt out on them. The only album of theirs I think I've played this year is Surfer Rosa.

ZEROpumpkins 10.02.2008 07:40 PM

Surfer Rosa has better songs, and starts out awesome, but I think Doolittle is overall just a tad better.

whereboysfeartotread 10.02.2008 09:37 PM

trompe le monde because its got all my favorite songs on it.

doolittle because its the first album i heard by them.

ZEROpumpkins 10.02.2008 09:55 PM

Trompe le Monde is their most underrated, far better than Bossanova.

Sheriff Rhys Chatham 10.02.2008 09:59 PM

I voted for come on pilgrim.
Short and sweet. More than 20 minutes of the pixies is too much any way.

No puple tapes?

atsonicpark 10.02.2008 10:33 PM

Purple tape suuuucks.

atsonicpark 10.02.2008 10:33 PM

I do love the b-sides and live at the bbc though.
