PAZ. Just putting aside for a mo the fact that she may be the most beautiful woman in rock music - TOP bassist and, for me, brought the Pixies right back to the top of the pile which is where they should always be. Ace bassist and utterly beautiful and compelling woman. Love you and what you've done for Pixies!
Is it possible a 30 year old song is becoming the new hit of the Pixies? Gouge Away was always a solid song, but it feels more like a song of this decade
I don't think Elbowonfire is saying in the way you have interpreted , it's her band as she is in the band, that's how I read it, the written word is very arbitrary this way !
When I first Heard Black Francis scream out this song It felt like he was confronting some abuser or bully in his past! He actually scared me with his intensity! I thought good let it out! Let the pain and anguish out and confront the Abuser and just give it back to them. That’s the only way to get over it!
listen her solo work. she's a multi instrumental player with a fantastic work and tons of creativity. she's much bigger than it's possible to see playing with pixies.
As much as I respect Paz as a musician and I´ve seen her plenty of times with other bands ... well ,lets be straight about this : Kim Deal is irreplaceable in this band , sorry ! Band sounds diminished without her ... incomplete ... but all you older Pixies fans already know this anyways ... meh!
No question in my mind. Having followed Pixies from the start, they have been reborn in the last couple of years and Paz has been the catalyst that made this wonderful band vital again. Kim was just as important but Paz proves no-one is irreplaceable (maybe Frank I suppose in this context). Paz is the better musician and just ACE!
I love Pixies and was lucky enough to see them in the 90s. These days, I am sorry to say this, but Frank's voice is quite weak and cannot recreate the old intensity of their songs
When I first heard, Something against you, I knew something was wrong with Black Francis. I mean, he sounded disturbed on this song like he wants to hurt someone. Maybe he was ridiculed or bullied in high school or something. I don’t know but it’s sounds like genuine anger to my ears. I avoid people who scream like that.
What I see? They are singing "Broken Face" and there is no pogo-dance under the scene? I know, pogo in pure version is not a fun for young girls and metro-sexual men.I was finishing this dance with "broken face" and my blood on t-shirt not one or two times. BUT! As I said - it was not a fun for young girls or metro-sexual men...
By the way: Hard-core in short dress looks ... very palatable. Paz! Forgive me please, but I couldn't take my eyes off your legs! HIGH CLASS! Nations! On your knees before!
jonathon kiner Because she has only worked with Maynard Keenan, Josh Homme and Billy Corgan before. I am sure the Pixies feel very lucky also, I would be
She's a seriously accomplished musician. She is not Kim Deal 2.0, she's not in the same orbit in terms of musical chops, as she is far superior to Deal. That being said, I loved Kim Deal in the Pixies, but Paz is a far better bassist and musician.
@Antonio Tabet showzão hein? Não lembro de ter visto uma apresentação melhor dos Pixies com essa nova formação. Eles pareciam estar realmente empolgados. Muita sorte de quem esteve lá.
