The ultimate "best of" of America's most influential indie bandsOn the occasion of the 2004 reunion, the ultimate best of America's most influential indie bands is releasedIn 1986, an ad appeared in the Boston Times in which Charles Thompson (aka Black Francis) and Joey Santiago were looking for a bassist and drummer who liked Hüsker Dü and Peter, Paul & Mary. Kim Deal (still as Mrs. John Murphey on the first two records) and David Lovering answered the ad and the Pixies were complete. With their thunderous rock, brutal tempo changes and cutting guitar riffs, they became the indie rock band of all time. Kurt Cobain admitted that he couldn't have written a song like "Smells Like Teen Spirit" without the Pixies' inspiration, "I was trying to write the perfect pop song, I was trying to rip off the Pixies." Whether he succeeded remains to be seen. What is certain is that the Pixies created indie classics like "Debaser," "Here Comes Your Man," "Monkey Gone To Heaven" and "Where Is My Mind?" have produced indie classics. (from laut. de)
