Our Take

Ah, the Pixies - the band that has inspired countless indie rockers while maintaining a level of cool that most can only dream of. Their fourth studio album, Trompe Le Monde, is a wild ride through the minds of frontman Black Francis and company.

From the opening track "Trompe Le Monde," it's clear that the Pixies are not messing around. The guitar work is frenetic, the drumming is on point, and Francis's signature yelps are as captivating as ever. "Planet of Sound" takes things up a notch, with its rumbling bassline and infectious chorus making it a standout track.

But it's not all frantic energy on Trompe Le Monde. "Velouria" showcases the band's softer side, with its dreamy guitar melodies and ethereal vocals creating a sense of otherworldly beauty. Meanwhile, "Bird Dream of the Olympus Mons" is a masterclass in building tension, with its repetitive riff and haunting lyrics leaving you on the edge of your seat.

Overall, Trompe Le Monde is a testament to the Pixies' enduring talent and ability to push boundaries. It may not be as immediately accessible as some of their other albums, but give it time and it will reveal its hidden depths. So grab your headphones, press play, and let the Pixies take you on a journey you won't soon forget.
