True legends of American rock, Pixies have inspired numerous musical careers: from Nirvana to The Smashing Pumpkins, from Radiohead to The Strokes, so many bands have formed in the wake of this adventurous quartet. Founded in Boston in the mid-1980s by guitarist Joey Santiago and singer-songwriter Black Francis (also known as Frank Black), the Pixies have left an indelible mark on the history of independent rock with the tectonic force of their music, which blends rock guitars, corrosion punk, melodic surf-rock, and ragged acoustic passages. Their albums Surfer Rosa (1988) and Doolittle (1989) remain essential listening, but their more recent releases, including Beneath the Eyrie (2019) and Doggerel (2022), prove the relevance of their reunion. In a word: Gigantic!
