	Bossanova Test Pressing - New - MFSL 1-311 Sealed 2010 test pressing from Mobile Fidelity Sound Lab. Remastering by Rob LoVerde; Pressed at RTI. "When Bossanova arrived in 1990, it reflected the exhaustion the Pixies felt after Doolittle's enormous success: For the first time, the band seems to be running out of ideas. Tellingly, Kim Deal contributes no songs, having formed the Breeders to give her work an outlet; that summer, their debut Pod won a warmer response than Bossanova received. Arguably the Pixies' weakest album -- though Francis has said it's his favorite -- most of it finds the band in fine form. Gil Norton's spacious, reverb-heavy production makes the Pixies sound like a Martian bar band, which fits the cover of the Surftones' "Cecilia Ann" and the glorious, shimmering closer "Havalina" perfectly. On the theremin-driven "Velouria," science fiction imagery displaces Francis' penchant for fetishistic lyrics; next to the token kinky song "Down to the Well"'s tired sound, it's a refreshing change. The similarly cryptic "All Over the World" and alien abduction tale "The Happening" add to the sci-fi feel. Quirky pop songs like "Allison," a tribute to jazz cool-cat Mose Allison, and "Dig for Fire," Francis' self-professed Talking Heads homage, heighten Bossanova's playful, slightly off-kilter vibe, but rockers like "Hang Wire" and "Blown Away," fall flat. However, "Rock Music" is one of the group's most fiery outbursts, and "Is She Weird"'s chugging grind and sexy, funny lyrics make it a classic Pixies song. The band was so consistently amazing on their previous albums that when they released a slightly weaker one, critics and fans alike judged them too harshly. But on Bossanova's strongest moments, the Pixies explored their softer side and found different uses for their extreme dynamics. Like a straight-A student who suddenly receives a B+, Bossanova might have been a disappointment initially, but its (small) failings emphasize the strengths of the rest of the Pixies' work."

	Come On Pilgrim New Import - MAD 709 Sealed 2004 180gm Reissue Of Their Brilliant 1987 Debut EP. The debut mini-album from the Pixies, featuring eight tracks that showcase the band's signature sound. From the energetic "Caribou" to the haunting "Nimrod's Son," this album has something for every listener. The Pixies' blend of punk rock, surf rock, and pop influences creates a sound that's both familiar and fresh. The lyrics are cryptic and sometimes disturbing, but always thought-provoking. The band's unconventional song structures, dynamic instrumentation, and unique vocal harmonies create an experience that's unlike anything you've heard before. "Come On Pilgrim" has received critical acclaim and has been cited as a major influence by countless musicians. Rolling Stone named it one of the 500 greatest albums of all time, and Pitchfork gave it a perfect 10/10 rating. more
	Come On Pilgrim New - LP - MAD 709 Sealed 2022 Latest 180gm Reissue/Repress. "Amazingly, The Pixies' 1987 Debut Ep, Come On Pilgrim, Was Compiled From The Quickly, Inexpensively Made Demo Tape -- Paid For By Black Francis' Dad -- The Band Made At Boston's Legendary Fort Apache Studio Soon After They Formed. 4ad Was So Taken With The Tape That They Released Eight Of The Songs As This Mini-album. It's Easy To See Why They Were So Impressed: The Pixies' Essential Sound -- Francis' Unearthly Shriek Of A Voice, David Lovering's Propulsive Drumming, Joey Santiago's Insistent, Prickly Guitar Playing, And Kim Deal's Sugar-and-sandpaper Vocals And Steady Basslines -- Arrives Fully Formed On Songs Like The Bouncy, Yet Twisted, Surfer-girl Ode "Ed Is Dead." Influences Like '80s College Rock Peers The Violent Femmes, The Stooges, Lou Reed, And Hardcore Punk Crop Up On Songs Like "I've Been Tired," The Group's Surreal Take On Sexual Frustration, And "Isla De Encanta." Most Importantly, The Ep Introduces The Spooky, Theatrical Vision The Group Brought To Their Simple Guitar-bass-drums Lineup. Francis' Lyrical Fetishes For Sex, Death, And Religion And His Twisted Sense Of Humor Crop Up On Every Track, From The Eerie Opener "Caribou," Which Urges Listeners To "Reeeeepent!," To The Final Song, "Levitate Me," Which Borrows Christian Folksinger Larry Norman's Catchphrase: "Come On Pilgrim, You Know He Loves You!" "The Holiday Song" And "Nimrod's Son" Provide Voyeuristic, Back-to-back Glimpses At Incest, As Well As The Priceless Lyric, "My Sister Held Me Close And Whispered To My Bleeding Head/you Are The Son Of A Motherf*cker" (From "Nimrod's Son"). Gary Smith's Less-is-more Production Allows The Full, Primal Impact Of The Band's Combustive Sound To Blast Through, Offering What May Be The Purest Version Of Their Perverse Punk-pop. An Electrifying Debut, Come On Pilgrim Remains As Raw, Vibrant, And Engaging As The Day It Was Recorded." AMG - Heather Phares. more

	Doolittle Audiophile - New - MFSL 1-309 Sealed 2009 limited edition (No. 003271) 2LP half-speed mastered reissue, newly remastered and specially plated/pressed on 180gm high definition vinyl. THEE definitive pressing of what is widely considered to be one of the greatest albums of all time. "More than three decades removed from its original release, the Pixies’ 1989 sophomore record, Doolittle, remains among the best and most important albums ever made. The accolades span continents. Q magazine declared the rock landmark as one of the 100 Greatest Albums Ever. Mojo inducted the record into its Hall of Fame. Nirvana’s Kurt Cobain cited it as a primary influence. Most prestigiously, Rolling Stone placed Doolittle high on its highly regarded 500 Greatest Albums of All Time list, where the hyper-melodic record landed ahead of familiar classics by the likes of dozens of household-name artists. Mobile Fidelity is proud to honor this distinguished effort with a sonic treatment that presents Doolittle as it was always meant to be heard. Mastered from the original master tapes, the label's numbered-edition 180g 33RPM LP of the cleanly produced record yields see-through clarity, vibrant immediacy, stunning transparency, and tonal punch. Every note and passage is greatly improved and properly scaled, be it vocal textures, life-size drum beats, or the multitude of musical elements that, on previous incarnations of the record, went unheard. Need examples? Check out leader Black Francis and bassist Kim Deal’s back-and-forth gasps on “Gouge Away,” the solar-plexus-hitting guitar effects on the anything-but “Tame,” and atmospheric vibes on “Wave of Mutilation.” Of course, the content is deserving of the brilliant sound. Chock full with violent surrealism, religious symbolism, and a head-spinning range of material that encompasses atomic pop, theatrical country and western, abrasive post-punk, and giddy surf rock, the record is a synthesis of contagious tunefulness and linguistic wit. If that’s not enough, fits of romance, humor, and glee balance the addictively fun narratives of now-standard tunes such as “Here Comes Your Man,” “Debaser,” and “Monkey Gone to Heaven.” - Mobile Fidelity Sound Lab more

	Doolittle New - LP - CAD 905 Sealed 2021 Reissue. "After 1988's Brilliant But Abrasive Surfer Rosa, The Pixies' Sound Couldn't Get Much More Extreme. Their Elektra Debut, Doolittle, Reins In The Noise In Favor Of Pop Songcraft And Accessibility. Producer Gil Norton's Sonic Sheen Adds Some Polish, But Black Francis' Tighter Songwriting Focuses The Group's Attack. Doolittle's Most Ferocious Moments, Like "Dead," A Visceral Retelling Of David And Bathsheba's Affair -- Are More Stylized Than The Group's Past Outbursts. Meanwhile, Their Poppy Side Surfaces On The Irresistible Single "Here Comes Your Man" And The Sweetly Surreal Love Song "La La Love You." The Pixies' Arty, Noisy Weirdness Mix With Just Enough Hooks To Produce Gleefully Demented Singles Like "Debaser," -- Inspired By Bunuel's Classic Surrealist Short Un Chien Andalou -- And "Wave Of Mutilation," Their Surfy Ode To Driving A Car Into The Sea. Though Doolittle's Sound Is Cleaner And Smoother Than The Pixies' Earlier Albums, There Are Still Plenty Of Weird, Abrasive Vignettes: The Blankly Psychotic "There Goes My Gun," "Crackity Jones," A Song About A Crazy Roommate Francis Had In Puerto Rico, And The Nihilistic Finale "Gouge Away." Meanwhile, "Tame," And "I Bleed" Continue The Pixies' Penchant For Cryptic Kink. But The Album Doesn't Just Refine The Pixies' Sound; They Also Expand Their Range On The Brooding, Wannabe Spaghetti Western Theme "Silver" And The Strangely Theatrical "Mr. Grieves." "Hey" And "Monkey Gone To Heaven," On The Other Hand, Stretch Francis' Lyrical Horizons: "Monkey"'s Elliptical Environmentalism And "Hey"'s Twisted Longing Are The Pixies' Versions Of Message Songs And Romantic Ballads. Their Most Accessible Album, Doolittle's Wide-ranging Moods And Sounds Make It One Of Their Most Eclectic And Ambitious. A Fun, Freaky Alternative To Most Other Late-'80s College Rock, It's Easy To See Why The Album Made The Pixies Into Underground Rock Stars." AMG Review By Heather Phares more

	Doolittle Used - LP - 60856-1 1989 original, SRC pressing complete with the custom printed inner sleeve. DMM by Howie Weinberg. Glossy, VG+ vinyl. "After 1988's brilliant but abrasive Surfer Rosa, the Pixies' sound couldn't get much more extreme. Their Elektra debut, Doolittle, reins in the noise in favor of pop songcraft and accessibility. Producer Gil Norton's sonic sheen adds some polish, but Black Francis' tighter songwriting focuses the group's attack. Doolittle's most ferocious moments, like "Dead," a visceral retelling of David and Bathsheba's affair -- are more stylized than the group's past outbursts. Meanwhile, their poppy side surfaces on the irresistible single "Here Comes Your Man" and the sweetly surreal love song "La La Love You." The Pixies' arty, noisy weirdness mix with just enough hooks to produce gleefully demented singles like "Debaser," -- inspired by Bunuel's classic surrealist short Un Chien Andalou -- and "Wave of Mutilation," their surfy ode to driving a car into the sea. Though Doolittle's sound is cleaner and smoother than the Pixies' earlier albums, there are still plenty of weird, abrasive vignettes: the blankly psychotic "There Goes My Gun," "Crackity Jones," a song about a crazy roommate Francis had in Puerto Rico, and the nihilistic finale "Gouge Away." Meanwhile, "Tame," and "I Bleed" continue the Pixies' penchant for cryptic kink. But the album doesn't just refine the Pixies' sound; they also expand their range on the brooding, wannabe spaghetti western theme "Silver" and the strangely theatrical "Mr. Grieves." "Hey" and "Monkey Gone to Heaven," on the other hand, stretch Francis' lyrical horizons: "Monkey"'s elliptical environmentalism and "Hey"'s twisted longing are the Pixies' versions of message songs and romantic ballads. Their most accessible album, Doolittle's wide-ranging moods and sounds make it one of their most eclectic and ambitious. A fun, freaky alternative to most other late-'80s college rock, it's easy to see why the album made the Pixies into underground rock stars." All Music Guide - Heather Phares more

	Head Carrier Used - LP - PM018LP 2016 180gm gatefold original worldwide pressing on black vinyl. EX copy, some light run-in noise. "Though they crafted a signature -- and endlessly copied -- style, Pixies' music never stayed in the same place for long. During their early years, the band relished change, moving from Come on Pilgrim's scrappy apocalyptic visions to Doolittle's gleaming pop to Trompe Le Monde's riff-rock at a rapid pace. Indeed, it could be argued that part of the reason their 2014 comeback Indie Cindy underwhelmed was because it tried too hard to recapture the past. On Head Carrier, Pixies usher in more than a few changes, the biggest being bassist Paz Lenchantin. Replacing a member may be inconsequential for some bands, but for this one, it's a big deal (pun intended): Founding bassist Kim Deal departed prior to Indie Cindy, and the use of a session player on the album only underscored that a vital part of the group's appeal was missing. Thanks to Lenchantin, Pixies sound like a full -- if slightly different -- band again, whether she's sweetening "Oona"'s crunch with her harmonies or helping shape the album's character in general. The rest of the band's ease at having her in the fold is audible, and Head Carrier is a surprisingly nice album. "Classic Masher" and "Bel Esprit" recall the amiable jangle of "Here Comes Your Man" and the band's cover of "Winterlong," and the easygoing vibe continues on "All the Saints"' slo-mo surf and "Plaster of Paris." However, the niceness turns strange on "All I Think About Now." A musical thank-you note to Deal written by Black Francis and sung by Lenchantin that shamelessly borrows from "Where Is My Mind?," it manages to be both jarring and overly nostalgic. As on Indie Cindy, when the band looks back too much, it feels forced; "Baals Back" is shrieky and Biblical, but lacks the true oddness of their best songs about fire and brimstone. Fortunately, the high-speed chase that is "Um Chagga Lagga" and the roaring title track are in the vein of Pixies' classic rockers without feeling contrived. "Talent" is even better, a piece of satirical, snotty garage-rock that reaffirms Francis doesn't need to sing about the Bible or aliens to let loose. While it feels like Pixies are still figuring out how to continue their legacy, Head Carrier's best moments suggest they're heading in the right direction." All Music Guide – Heather Phares. more

	Trompe Le Monde New Import - CAD 1014 Sealed 2021 180gm Repressed Reissue. “The Title Might Be French For "Fool The World," But With Trompe Le Monde, The Pixies Weren't Fooling Anyone: This Was Essentially Black Francis' Solo Debut. It Focuses On Francis' Sci-Fi Fascination And Lacks Any Kim Deal Songs; Even Her Backing Vocals Are Far And Few Between. Yet The Band Sounds Revitalized On Trompe Le Monde, As If It Were Planned As Their Last Hurrah. The Raucous "Distance Equals Rate Times Time" And The Explosive Cover Of The Jesus And Mary Chain's "Head On" Are Fairly Straightforward, But The Lyrics Remain Quirky On "Planet Of Sound," A Song About A Martian Who Lands On Earth, And "Palace Of The Brine," A Tribute To Sea Monkeys And Utah's Salt Lake. He Even Disses Hipsters And Pretentious Students -- Basically, The Pixies' Fan Base -- With Nasty Little Digs Like "Subbacultcha"'S "I Was Wearing Eyeliner/She Was Wearing Eyeliner" And "U-Mass"' "It's Eduuucaaationaal!" Musically, "Trompe Le Monde"'S Psychedelic Sheen And "Alec Eiffel"'S Atmospheric Keyboards Prove That The Pixies' Sound Wasn't Defined By Steve Albini-Style Rawness. There's Also More Emotional Depth: "The Sad Punk" Features The Strangely Poignant Bridge "And Evolving From The Sea/Would Not Be Too Much Time For Me/To Walk Beside You In The Sun," And "Letter To Memphis" Is A Heartfelt, If Cryptic, Love Song. Though Trompe Le Monde Doesn't Sound Quite Like The Pixies' Other Work, Come On Pilgrim's Spooky Beginnings, Surfer Rosa's Abrasive Assault, Doolittle's Deceptively Accessible Punk-Pop, And Bossanova's Spacy Sonics Helped Make Trompe Le Monde A Rousing Swan Song And A Precursor To Alternative Rock's Imminent Success.

	Trompe Le Monde New - LP - CAD 1014 Sealed 180gm Reissue. “The Title Might Be French For "Fool The World," But With Trompe Le Monde, The Pixies Weren't Fooling Anyone: This Was Essentially Black Francis' Solo Debut. It Focuses On Francis' Sci-Fi Fascination And Lacks Any Kim Deal Songs; Even Her Backing Vocals Are Far And Few Between. Yet The Band Sounds Revitalized On Trompe Le Monde, As If It Were Planned As Their Last Hurrah. The Raucous "Distance Equals Rate Times Time" And The Explosive Cover Of The Jesus And Mary Chain's "Head On" Are Fairly Straightforward, But The Lyrics Remain Quirky On "Planet Of Sound," A Song About A Martian Who Lands On Earth, And "Palace Of The Brine," A Tribute To Sea Monkeys And Utah's Salt Lake. He Even Disses Hipsters And Pretentious Students -- Basically, The Pixies' Fan Base -- With Nasty Little Digs Like "Subbacultcha"'S "I Was Wearing Eyeliner/She Was Wearing Eyeliner" And "U-Mass"' "It's Eduuucaaationaal!" Musically, "Trompe Le Monde"'S Psychedelic Sheen And "Alec Eiffel"'S Atmospheric Keyboards Prove That The Pixies' Sound Wasn't Defined By Steve Albini-Style Rawness. There's Also More Emotional Depth: "The Sad Punk" Features The Strangely Poignant Bridge "And Evolving From The Sea/Would Not Be Too Much Time For Me/To Walk Beside You In The Sun," And "Letter To Memphis" Is A Heartfelt, If Cryptic, Love Song. Though Trompe Le Monde Doesn't Sound Quite Like The Pixies' Other Work, Come On Pilgrim's Spooky Beginnings, Surfer Rosa's Abrasive Assault, Doolittle's Deceptively Accessible Punk-Pop, And Bossanova's Spacy Sonics Helped Make Trompe Le Monde A Rousing Swan Song And A Precursor To Alternative Rock's Imminent Success. Whether That Means Their Music Remained Pure Or They Missed Their Chance To Cash In Is Debatable; Either Way, The Pixies Are One Of America's Greatest, Most Influential Bands.” – Heather Phares, AMG more
