Ok. I went slightly over. As ever please feel free to comment. Here goes: Pixies By Neil Beynon The thing looks at her looking at it. Its skin is the colour of Jane’s father’s battered and faded leather jacket, as wrinkled and crumpled as one of his shirts. Its heavy lids blink over wet black, jet black, [...]

Os Pixies são uma banda norte-americana de rock alternativo formada em Boston, Massachusetts em 1985.O grupo separou-se em 1993 por divergências mas voltou-se a juntar em 2004. Black Francis, Joey Santiago, Kim Deal e Dave Lovering são os únicos membros do grupo em toda a sua história. Os Pixies encontraram pouco sucesso no seu país de origem, algo que não se reflectiu na Europa, em especial no Reino Unido (embora tenha sido moderado).A sua música foi muito influenciada pelo punk e surf rock, e embora fosse bastante melódica, também era capaz de conter material mais pesado. Francis era o principal compositor e vocalista do grupo. Geralmente escrevia letras enigmáticas sobre temas pouco comuns, como OVNIs e o surrealismo. Referências a instabilidade mental, imagens bíblicas vio

Pixies are considered guardians of Nature as fairies, elfs and gnomes. They come from the Viking and Celtic mythology.And have always been associated with witches, fairies, and druids, because they use them as spies because of their small size.Following the tradition, their magic can't affect someone who carries a four-leaf clover, or an image of Saint Patrick.The legend tells that Saint Patrick threw the pixies out of the house of God. In the 17th March, the day of Saint Patrick, it is said that the pixies and all the other magical beings come back from their hidden places to make pranks.That's why in the day of Saint Patrick it's mandatory to carry a four-leaf clover, as it is a protection element against magic.When Saint Patrick founded the first church in Ireland, he invited the Celts

I finally got a laptop today so I will no doubt be posting a lot more frequently then usual, assuming that I have something to talk about. I was watching Fight Club the other day for the first time and this was one of those songs that is impossible to ignore. After realizing that I just watched a better than average movie, I went straight to Google to try to figure out what was the song that was playing at the end of the movie as the buildings fell. Without much effort I found out that it was called "Where Is My Mind?". This is a song off of the album Surfer Rosa by a band called Pixies. Released just a little before my time in March of 1988, the album has reached critical acclaim throughout the world. Kurt Cobain has cited Surfer Rosa as the basis for Nevermind's songwriting. When the intensely popular movie, Fight Club, was released in 1999, it sparked a resurgence in interest in Pixies' music. Apparently I was not alone in finding this song to be a perfect fit for the ending of th

I just wanted to share with you the best James Blunt recording I have ever heard... I'll admit I am not very well informed when it comes to his work.. But as soon as I heard Blunt's live cover of the Pixies, "Where is My Mind," I was pretty bowled over! It's a song made famous, actually, by Placebo's cover version in the movie Fight Club. Blunt's version is pretty good.To close out this mini-post (more to come later...,) I have included Blunt's memorable performance on Sesame Street!JAMES BLUNTJames Blunt - Where is My Mind?THE PIXIESVIDEOJames Blunt Web / Myspace

"Come On Pilgrim" foi o meu primeiro contacto com os Pixies. Teria os meus 15 anos quando um colega me entra estúdio (do centro de rádio da escola) dentro com aquele vinil com uma capa invulgar mas apelativa, aos pulos a dizer que tinha mandado vir, via importação e que tinha ali uma verdadeira bomba. Ter-me-á dito algo como "isto é melhor do que qualquer coisa que já tenhas ouvido, até melhor que Gun Club (que era a banda favorita dele). Não há nada como ouvir para verificar, foi o que fizemos, rodou de imediato e rodou de uma ponta à outra com algumas palavras pelo meio entre faixas e para virar o disco. Cada música constituíu um golpe profundo de rock'n'roll duro, crú e directo, sem espinhas. Conheci-os naquela tarde e logo os coloquei entre os meus eleitos onde ainda hoje permanecem. Escusado será dizer que nos dias seguintes voltou a rodar insistentemente no estúdio e em casa."Come on Pilgrim" ouvi-o já centenas de vezes, e é um daqueles álbuns obrigatórios q

Last year in the midst of the cold and flu season, I was working retail. Alright, alright. I was a cashier at a Wal*Mart Neighborhood Market. One of the grocery store versions of Wal*Mart. And even more so, I was the Liquor Clerk. And while all of that alcohol around me would have been a great antiseptic for my sore throat and would have helped me fall asleep even with my worst headache and stuffy nose–and quite well too, might I add–I just kept drinking a huge bottle of water filled with Airborne alongside sucking on zinc lozenges like they were going out of style. And if you could get past the funky neon greenish color that my water had turned, well, I guess I was pretty normal. Even still, I learned how awesome Airborne really was. And what’s even cooler is this free Airborne Power Pixies sample they’re giving out right now on their website. It’s the kids version of the stuff, so to make it the “hip thing” for the kids, there’s

If you haven't seen TV on the Radio yet - the very cool NYC underground band that took the indie world by storm last year - you should check out their myspace page and try to get to a show. And if you can't make it out to a live show they do have a live show link on their regular webpage that will take you to a download especially recorded for itunes. What a sound! Here they cover the Pixies' "Mr. Grieves" - in a performance that I am sure stuck with the live audience for a long, long time.SONG OF THE DAY:TVOTR cover the Pixies!On Stage - photograph by Daniel BoudTV on the Radio - Mister Grieves (Pixies cover)Coming Up: Two Live Show Reviews (one from Los Angeles and one from Boston!) and my take on the new Tiger Army album.

This is delicious and whimsical music. They said "Bossanova" as the weakest Pixies when it was released. It was definitely because of Doolittle's shocking effect on them. Or it was Kim Deal's the breeders which got more attention than Bossanova got. As a distinctive record, Bossanova is one of the best albums in early 90s. And it's still a great album, it never gets old and it knows how to [[ This is a content summary only. Visit my website for full links, other content, and more! ]]

Review by Heather Phares @ allmusic.com 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,

In the past few years, there has been a renaissance of interest in the Pixies, most notably in 2004, when the group reunited for a summer tour and released a greatest hits album. Now that all that’s in the rearview mirror, though, Pixies leader Frank Black is ready to switch the focus back to something much more important to him: Frank Black

So proper roundup later. For now, have a look at the transcript of the Platform Series Q&A with Tom Stoppard which is finally online. The event took place on February 14th this year.The other breaking news for today is that the Tonys committee has ruled that Coast of Utopia will be considered one play. Brian F. O'Byrne will be eligible for the Leading Actor award, while all the other cast members including Jennifer Ehle are in the Featured category. See Playbill.One more thing actually- Kate has kindly shared her thoughts from her pilgrimage to Utopia.

Break out of a winter rut with the colorful mix of quirky goods from Head Full of Pixies. Ranging from totes to home goods to pendants, SAHM and designer Tammie Bennett handcrafts each of her one-of-a-kind items. I especially love her fused glass pendants in bright punchy colors. At only $8.00 each, you can afford to get a bunch of them to switch around on your favorite chain and add some sunshine to your life. Which is exactly what I need now that winter has finally arrived in Cleveland.
