I probably know three, but every time I've gotten into it, I just haven't found anything that I like.
DaneHOST
I kind of file them in with Pixies, even the Violet Femmes.
DaneHOST
I don't even know what you would call that.
DaneHOST
Alternative music, post arts, punk.
TomHOST
like the things that people say have been massive influences.
TomHOST
Like say you look back at something like the Pixies, who are like a band that have influenced bands that have influenced bands that have influenced bands that have influenced.
TomHOST
Like there's always that chain.
TomHOST
So like even if somebody who is currently like making rock music that is sort of of a particular style may have never heard of the pixies uh it's entirely likely that they were influenced by a band who loved the pixies like there's there's always that chain of like of influence that exists no matter no matter what we do um and like i like part of sort of my my my obsessions with music come in sort of like finding these connections and sort of Not documenting them, but sort of like cataloguing them in my mind, I guess.
Will RockGUEST
I mean, it's interesting how you mentioned the Pixies, because that sort of alternative rock style, that sort of grungy sort of sound.
Will RockGUEST
Like, I like some grunge, but I know Nirvana were massively influenced by the Pixies, weren't they? Exactly, yeah.
Will RockGUEST
And I've always hated Nirvana with every core of my being, and I know some people hate me for that, but I don't care.
Will RockGUEST
um but um so I, as a result, I never really listened to the Pixies.
NickHOST
my two favorites.
NickHOST
I mean, the Pixies, though.
GeoffHOST
Oh, the Pixies.
GeoffHOST
Everybody's in there.
GeoffHOST
Rudy
Steve HillGUEST
great festival.
Steve HillGUEST
I think the fall, they didn't headline, but the fall played before the Pixies on the main stage.
Steve HillGUEST
So for me, half an hour basically in the tent and the fall on the main stage, I mean, if I were curating that festival, it wouldn't have been much different.
Steve HillGUEST
No.
Joel MorrisGUEST
And the only thing that will be interesting is because that dynamic, I love harmonies.
Joel MorrisGUEST
I love the dynamic between two different voices is why the Pixies are amazing.
Joel MorrisGUEST
I love people joining in and the audience joining in.
Joel MorrisGUEST
But what happens at Oasis is that one man sings and the audience joins in.
Scott HortonGUEST
It's worse than Star Wars 8, that black album.
Scott HortonGUEST
I've worked at Thundercloud Subs and we had the five disc changer and we had Ill Communication, Jerky Boys, God, like the Pixies or something, and Load.
Scott HortonGUEST
And I had to listen to Load over and over.
Scott HortonGUEST
This is like two or three after the Black album.
Brooklyn PeteHOST
Yeah.
Brooklyn PeteHOST
Dark Side of the Moon, Goodbye, Yellow Brick Road, The Cars' first album, Life's Rich Pageant, which I was back and forth with like three or four different R.E.M. albums, Pixies, Doolittle, Radiohead, The Benz, and Boxer.
RobinHOST
Oh, that's a solid nine right
Brooklyn PeteHOST
there.
Simon HyndGUEST
It can be that.
Simon HyndGUEST
It's like as a teenager when you hear Pixies for the first time, you go, oh, music can be that.
Simon HyndGUEST
Or, you know, Aphex Twin, music can be that.
Simon HyndGUEST
And especially like, you know, I'm in my 50s now, so I feel like it's harder to surprise me.
ScottHOST
There's so many artists that record on that label and have done over the years.
ScottHOST
Pixies are probably the most famous.
ScottHOST
And, of course, they did all their early releases on 4AD.
ScottHOST
Not their latest ones since they were reformed.
TraceyHOST
And Paz Lenshanton.
TraceyHOST
Yeah, who was the bass player in Pixies after Kim Deal there.
Colin Jackson-BrownHOST
And more importantly, A Perfect Circle on their first album.
TraceyHOST
Oh, okay, right, right.
