Why the fuck is this rated higher than Surfer Rosa on RYM?

Literally anybody with the slightest hint of taste knows that Surfer Rosa is the best Pixies album.
>>
dude the pixies suck anyway
>>
>>61746961
I love them both completely for different reasons, it's a tie in my opinion. Both are classics
>>
>>61746961
I agree, steve albini alone cements it, but the songs are just more fun and raw on surfer rosa
>>
>>61746961
Why do you care what some site says? You still like Surfer Rosa more, don't you?
>>
Doolittle has fun little ditties that are generally more memorable so people consider it better because they can remember more about. TRUE fans like you get it though.
>>
>>61746961
B/c Doolittle is a masterpiece, m8.
>>
>>61747295
steve albini was also correct when he said pixies weren't a good band
>>
>>61746961
Nope, Doolittle is the band's best work.
>>
>>61746961
lol no it isn't, doolittle has way more consistent songwriting
>b-but muh abrasive production
fuck off, they're a pop band
>>
>>61748203
steve albini took those comments back and vocally dickrides breeders albums
>>
>>61746961
surfer rosa has a lot of shit on it
doolittle is consistently good throughout, the only bad track is silver
it sucks that they completely dropped the ball with the next two though

B-but I'm a true fan right anon? :(
>>
Doolittle is more consistent
don't get me wrong, Surfer Rosa has really nice production and great songs, but it also has some mediocre tunes that bring the album down a bit below Doolittle

>tfw no one realizes that bossanova is actually the best pixies album
>>
>>61749650
suck my dick you fucking faggot fuck you
>>
HEY!
>>
>>61749706
nah friendo, trompe le monde is the best one. Bossanova hinted at what a heavier pixies would be like, something which TLM proved.
>>
>>61749728
Upset?
>>
Who fucking cares
>>
>>61749551
Did she have any other songwriting credits while she was with them besides that Shrek song
>>
>>61749835
frick off jake i do too have muscles!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
>>
>>61749807
Nigger you are tripping. I do love distance equals rate times time though on trompe le monde, it's one of my faves. Those albums have some good songs but they're not on the same level as surfer rosa and Doolittle
>>
Rosa has a lot of really great stand out tracks but Doolittle is far more consistent. I think that the best Pixies songs are on Rosa, but as an album Doolitle is much more cohesive.
>>
>>61748329
Actually the only bad song is Dead
>>
>>61750796
Dead's alright, if anything it's Tame
>>
>>61751084
Tame's good, but No. 13 Baby is the worst
>>
>>61751202
I second this motion completely. Also. Surfer Rosa is GOAT album
>>
>>61751202
But that ending though...
>>
You are all so retarded. Tame is the best song on Doolittle, and Trompe Le Monde is their best album
>>
>>61751415
No it isn't. You're missing maybe the best part of the pixies on trompe le monde which is Kim's backing vocals
>>
>>61751491
Go listen to the breeders you moon
>>
>>61751415
>>61751491
Also debaser and gouge away are way better than tame
>>
>>61746961
The pixies are average...best song is here comes your man.
>>
>>61751511
No see that's the thing on their own they're both alright but when they come together you get that perfect sound which is so unique to the pixies
>>
I fucking love Cecilia Ann

I love surf music in general though
>>
>>61748333
Of course buddy, I love you :)
>>
What's your guys' favorite pixies song though? I can't decide
>>
>>61752730
Mr.Grieves
>>
>>61752854
Ok...but do you have another opinion? :D
>>
>>61752854
Also I think I might have to go with Bone Machine, it's impossible to decide though
>>
>>61748203
steve albini's opinions are irrelevant
>>
>>61752959
eyy
