Much like the Velvet Underground before them, the Pixies' early record sales were modest but their influence was then, and remains now, huge and helped sculpt the sound of a subsequent genre. Having released four albums in as many years between 1988 and 1992 Boston's finest were unwittingly forefathers of the grunge movement, with one Kurt Cobain being a notable early champion. After more than a decade away, this maverick collective reunited in 2004 and continues to play live to this day, although new material remains tantalisingly elusive. Pixies - The Lowdown celebrates the remarkable legacy of this pioneering quartet whose spirit and style continue to resonate throughout the alternative rock landscape today. Disc one features a collection of interviews with the band taken from throughout their career, during which Black Francis, Joey Santiago, Kim Deal and David Lovering talk with refreshing honest about the highs and lows of their illustrious existence. Disc two meanwhile offers a unique overview of the Pixies' story by way of a spoken-word biography. With a host of exclusive revelations, in completion, this entertaining and insightful two disc set will prove an essential addition to the collections of fans everywhere.
