Pixies Vinyl, CD & tapes from this artist at Norman Records
Formerly known as possibly one of the best, if not at one point the best alternative rock band, on the planet.
Pixies emerged out of Boston with their own unique sound fully intact. Their quiet/loud dynamics and mixture of frenzied acoustic guitar s...read more »

Doolittle
Second album from alternative rock stalwarts, Pixies. Doolittle is like when you see something disgusting, and you’re brain can’t quite decide if you want to keep looking at it and show it to everyone you know, or shut your eyes and hope it goes away. Surreal, catchy, dirty, noisy and really, really ...view item »
Pixies
Come On Pilgrim
Back in the day 'Come On Pilgrim' was the album you went to after you'd had your socks knocked off by 'Surfer Rosa' or 'Doolittle' or whichever Pixies album first took your fancy. Their debut mini LP with tracks taken almost exclusively from their demo recordings signposts a band arriving fully formed with a spiky and unusual new sound. Contains...view item »

Doolittle 25
In celebration of its 25th anniversary (yes, 25th!) 4AD is releasing a deluxe version of the Pixies’ pivotal second studio album Doolittle. This three-CD/double vinyl package includes all the album’s B sides, Peel Sessions and demos alongside the original album for the first time ever, with nearly half of the tracks being commer...view item »
Pixies
Head Carrier
Here comes the second post-reunion album from the legendary Boston outfit whose previous effort 'Indie Cindy' garnered mixed notices but was still at times a fine blast of noisy avant rock. Now having finally settled on a bassist with the Kim clone Paz Lenchantin now snugly ensconced into the line up, it's time to see whether the band reall...view item »
Pixies
Surfer Rosa
4AD have seen fit to re release the 1st 3 Pixies LP's on vinyl
(Come On Pilgrim, Surfer Rosa and Doolittle) which is a very good thing as they
shouldn't have been out of print in the first place. Some of the most important
records you'll ever own. I remember being utterly obsessed by Pixies
and
when I saw 'em live it chang...view item »
Pixies
Bossanova
This is the third proper full length attempt by Pixies, a legendary band from Boston who actually made some fucking great records back when I were a lad. Bossanova is not one of their great records. To try and follow up the triple whammy of Come On Pilgrim, Surfer Rosa and Doolittle is quite a daunting and challenging task, evident in the r...view item »
Pixies
Indie Cindy
It could be said that there are several things that could put you off this record before you even gave it a proper chance:-
No Kim DealTerrible title and artworkSome lazy half-assed lyricsGil Nortons penchant for over productionA general sense of them coining it in.
But….but but, listen to it in ord...view item »

Hollywood Holidays - The Classic 1991 Radio Broadcast
Pixies continue to release every other record in existence with Hollywood Holidays - The Classic 1991 Radio Broadcast, which offers up a recording of a show they played the year they made like the Ramones and said adiós amigos. Following on from the release of final rec...view item »
Pixies
Trompe Le Monde
If there was any worry that the Pixies would lose the raw energy of 'Surfa Rosa' by their 4th album, Frank Black put those worries to rest. 'Trompe Le Monde' isn't just relentless surf/punk though; "Space (I Believe In)" is a bizarre mix of prog rock and heavy metal and "Lovely Day" re-visits the feel of Doolittle classic "Hey". It may take...view item »

Wave of Mutilation: Best of Pixies
It's an odd one this. A review for a best-of that's been out before and certainly wasn't the original career round-up (that was '97's Death to the Pixies) The reason they're doing this (4AD), other than blatantly dumping another cash-in on our collective lap, is they feel there hasn't been a well sequenced, chronologically accurate primer availa...view item »
