Our Take

Ah, the Pixies. The band that brought us classics like "Where Is My Mind?" and "Debaser" are back with their fourth studio album, Trompe Le Monde. From the opening track, "Trompe Le Monde," it's clear that the Pixies are not messing about. With its fast-paced drums, distorted guitars, and Black Francis's unmistakable vocals, this album is a whirlwind of sound.

Songs like "U-Mass" and "Alec Eiffel" showcase the band's ability to blend catchy melodies with raw, unapologetic lyrics. Meanwhile, tracks like "Bird Dream of the Olympus Mons" and "Motorway to Roswell" take us on a sonic journey through space and time.

But what really sets Trompe Le Monde apart is its experimentation. The Pixies have never been afraid to push boundaries, and this album is no exception. Whether it's the screeching guitars on "Planet of Sound" or the haunting vocals on "The Sad Punk," the band keeps us on our toes, never quite knowing what to expect next.

Overall, Trompe Le Monde is a testament to the Pixies' enduring talent and creativity. With its eclectic mix of punk, surf rock, and noise pop, this album is a must-listen for fans old and new. So grab your headphones, press play, and let the Pixies take you on a wild ride through Trompe Le Monde. You won't regret it.
