These new songs are starting to grow on me. Give them a chance.

I fucking love this. A lot of people may think that it isn´t as good as the old times, but holy shit, this is something different and you can actually enjoy their hard work. This is one of those bands that are saving music.

Bagboy actually grew on me. I really like it now. I'm hoping all this new stuff will do the same.

I loved this band 20 years ago, love them now! Jaime Bravo is phenomenal.

Jamie Bravo for the win from this I one . Blue Eyed & Magdalena from Ep 2. What goes Boom from the first. All of those = awesome new Pixies tracks to me that hearing them got me fully excited. Next tier down- Silver snail, another toe, snakes, indie. These are growers for me - I like them lot. Ring them bells, andro - jury is out still . Time will tell. Bag boy , Greens & Blue - I find myself hitting skip. You know though? That's a pretty good strike rate for a new pixies album considering how old they are. Well done Pixies. You get a gold star!

I for one commend the courage and bravery of Black Francis and the crew. Ok, it might not always hit the spot but they've had a good go at it!! Can't wait to see them this summer.....

Sounds great! Totally agree with "Guillermo" Thanks for posting another great Album, Frank gets better like fine wine. Ta. John P-90

I love all of it. Love is a pretty big word...yep.

Jaime Bravo is classic Pixies.

Jaime Bravo - WOW. I'm continuously amazed by this *ultimate* of bands - their gaps between songs are better than the output of most others tbqfhwy.

I saw pixies in a Chile concert, just one word: fanfuckin'tastic, this band is really really cool, they played awesome! i wish see 'em again.

these eps are better than some of the pixies old stuff

So very pixies, Dark, Poppy, Doesnt make any sense, So moving, So pixies!!! Just like twenty year ago, makes me wanna do something unusual...

I can't agree with some of the more negative comments here. I've been a Pixies fan since their beginning, but just as I, now in my 40's, have changed and matured over the years so have they. With one or two exceptions, I think the new material is very good, and will likely stand the test of time.

sounds like AC/DC with a drum machine

Definitely not the pixies best stuff but way better than 98.456% of the crap that's come out the past 20 years.

I don't care for any backlash this comment may receive. I stand by my opinion that this is amazing music and an amazing set of Pixies tracks. All the way from EP-1 to EP-3. People who describe the new songs as "Boring" just doesn't cut it for me. The more I listen, the more I appreciate. And hasn't that always been beauty of this band? I'm glad to be a long-time fan who thoroughly enjoys the new songs. Sure, they sound different. But Surfer Rosa/Come on Pilgrim and Trompe Le Monde are a universe apart in sound and content. I don't know why I'm trying to justify my liking of these new songs to those who simply wont listen. But hell. I LOVE them! Greens and Blues... I can't even describe how that song and video makes me feel. My girlfriend even bought the song for her journey to work, which really surprised me. I guess we have a new song we can revel in together.

that 2nd track is the deal.

Brilhante... isto sim Pixies... parabens amo...

Silver snail is catchy

Some of these are very atmospheric in my sense of a sunny day, outside with a good friend doing shit thats fun

thx awesome ❤😂

I"ll die and won't see my two favorite bands live: U2 and Pixies. I'm so sad about it

The true question around here is: "What would Kurt say?"

My current "preferred tracks" list for the new stuff. Fair warning that I swear no long term allegiance to these ratings, this list will probably change 20x over the next year as I adsorb it all, that's the beauty of Pixies: 1. Greens and Blues (luv how I rate it #1 and previous two posters last. Pixies in a nutshell) 2. Indie City 3. Andro Queen 4. Magdalena 5. Blue eyed hexe 6.Ring the Bell 7. Jaime Bravo 8. Snakes 9. Bagboy 10. ANother Toe 11. Silver Snail 12. What goes boom. All subject to change after repeated listening until its a 12 way tie for first ;o).

it"s better if the Pixies had done remack of their old songs,than trying something new like U2!

@landondonovanify these are produced by Gil Norton. The Same producer who produced all of the Pixies albums, except for the first one which is produced by Steve Albini. Gil Norton is an exceptional producer but tends to sound more polished these days. Why is frank singing like that? Because usually Kim is there to sing those parts, but if you listen to Tromp le Monde and bossanova, he has vocals like this all over the place, he is just better with pitch these days so they sound less bob dylan and more like Brian Wilson now. In the context of the chronological order of pixies albums, frank black albums, then back to the pixies, this sounds like a natural progression, to me.

Got to admit I really prefer the album version of Bagboy to the EP version. It tones down the "cover your breath, polish your speech" a little bit.

Edit #3: 1. Greens and Blues 2. Blue eyed hexe 3. Indie Cindy 4. Magdalena 5. Andro Queen 6. Jaime Bravo 7. Ring the Bell 8. Snakes 9. Bagboy 10. What goes boom 11. Silver Snail 12. Another Toe Jaime Bravo is indeed one of those Pixies sneaker growers all right.

I like bagboy an silver snail not so keen on ring the bell an less keen on jaime bravo.i think after 20 odd years you cant expect a band to write how they did when they were in there height of youthful creativity an the voice changes as you get older your vocal cords arent as flexible taken that in to account there are still some good songs on the new album blue eyed hexe,bagboy,,silver snail, magdalena, indie cindy.if nirvana were still going would they be writing songs as good as nevermind or in utero no they wouldnt it just doesnt happen.i like this new pixies album cause i wasnt expecting it to be like surfer rosa or any other of there albums written 20 odd years ago.

gente, esto es Pixies, cualquier comentario negativo queda automaticamente anulado

First edit already: Again, fair warning that I swear no long term allegiance to these ratings. This list will change 20x over the next year as I adsorb it all, that's the beauty of Pixies: 1. Greens and Blues (luv how I rate it #1 and previous two posters last. Pixies in a nutshell) 2. Indie City 3. Andro Queen 4. Blue Eyed Hexe 5. Magdalena 6.Snakes 7.Ring the Bell 8. Jaime Bravo 9. Bagboy 10. Another Toe 11. Silver Snail 12. What goes boom. All subject to change after repeated listening until its a 12 way tie for first because I can no longer pick one from another among the awesomeness ;o).

gil norton still murdering some of these songs....silver snail is so dark and creepy alive ...here... it is just so flat.......shame.

Having heard them played live I would say that the songs are actually really pretty decent. The problem is that in certain songs (not all of them) the production seems to have just zapped out some of the soul from them.

Why is Bagboy on ep1 AND ep3 ?

I'm such a massive Pixies fan, but all these EPs are so.......boring. The production makes them boring yes but I just don't know what to think, have they tried as hard as they could? Or have they settled for this generic more mainstream easier rock sound? Because you listen to something like Debaser or I've Been Tired or Tame, those songs are really rocking and just brilliant songs. Most of these new songs have none of the dynamic of the old stuff, they sound like crappy boring attempts at something vaguely resembling Pixies songs. The ones that have got closest are Bagboy and What Goes Boom which are the best two new songs they've produced, and by a long way and still not really up there with the old classics. Also why does Frank sing in that high pitched, "soothing", overly produced melodic way so much on these songs? What the hell? The Pixies don't do that! Frank, live you sound better screaming and plus he can still scream but he can't really sing live the way he does in these tracks like Ring The Bells.....so why do it in the first place?!!?! Arghhh Pixies whyyy.

So......average. Hope their next material is better than this.

I really dislike this EP. The songs sound so dramatic and slow and there just isn't that classic Charles Thompson bite to it, that screachy preachy sound that always got me amped up. The other recent EPs have had a few good songs come out of them, like "blue eyed hexa". overall however EPs 1-3 are not very good and thats not just in comparison to their old music, im talking about in comparison to other music today of the same genre. Aside from a couple good songs these EPs are below average

the tree eps are awful :c make me so sad

These eps are getting progressively worse.
