The pixies make their intentions clear by opening the albumn with possibly their best ever tune - Debaser. From this moment on its clear why kurt cobain would try to make nirvana sound so much like the pixies. This is perfect pop music. This the pixies third albumn is their finest albumn that they recorded in their all too short career. It is understandable that many people believe that there latter work does not match up to Doolittle. How could they improve upon this though? The tracks are spiky and punky generaly abiding by Black Francis' much copied formula of quiet verse and explosive chorus. That is not to say that the songs are not diverse, a mixture of different musical styles and even languages (with some verse in spanish) mean this albumn has a long shelf life. This is a must have for anyone who wants to know where all the alternative acts of the 90's got their ideas from.
