The older I get, the more appreciation I have for Joey Santiago. He is so subtle yet so damn powerful!

Imo the driving musical force of the band. Not mentioned enough as one of the better guitar players in all of popular music. He has definitely gotten better over time. Meticulous comes to mind. Great guitarist imo. Original, creative, colorful. Love Joey.

The way they can go from mellow to hard is unparalleled. Keep putting out outstanding music. Who needs the radio when you have the internet?

They are really something. Almost every song sounds like a smash hit. Plus so great they found Paz.

Fantastic!

[@Chris-tc8cm]

Tout à fait juste !

[@WxkR]

I really like Paz, and don’t think there’d be a better match to replace Kim. However, the creative force of Pixies left with Kim. When you hear The Breeders and compare them to the Pixies’ post-Kim albums, it is clear she was the core of their characteristic style of grunge.

[@somethingyettocome]

@@WxkR Hmmm. She was definitely important. But still Frank wrote almost all the songs...

[@WxkR]

@@somethingyettocome “writing” a song in pop music genres does not mean that you write every instruments part, or even the entirety of the harmonic changes, or the backing vocals. It usually means writing a sketch of the melody over a basic chord progression and the lyrics. The “arrangements” result from what every musician does in their instruments and collective decisions (negotiation) over structure (intros, sections, solos, etc.), harmonic substitutions, and sound effects/engineering. The “sound” of a rock/punk/metal/etc. band depends a lot less on the “composition” (“writing”) than on these other -non written- factors (the opposite of what happens with “classical” music).

Have just found this, going through you tube, I love it❤. They never loose their touch, one of my top 5 bands of all time, they are hugely inspirational in my personal opinion. I grew up in the 80’s, loved them then, still love them now. I’ve never been lucky enough to see them in concert. However my son who is 25yrs, has seen them, my Brother has seen these fantastic musical geniuses several times. I am obviously very jealous, but maybe one day I will get to see them. They are passionate, creative, and I would be sad if they ever stopped doing what they do so well. David Lover Ring, he has me transfixed,mesmerised, his amazing drumming, I then get my chopsticks out😂, and attempt to drum using various kitchen utensils . He makes me want to learn to play the drums, but I’m in my 40’s, have always wanted to learn, but don’t think it would go down well with neighbours, and family etc. plus drum lessons are expensive, as is a drum kit. I love Kim Deal, she is a legend, always was, and continues to be so. This beautiful lady is equally a fantastic musician, and should be respected as such. Fantastic concert, and great background, they will obviously have stunning architecture around them.🕍.
