NOTES:
1. “…How long were they supposed to wait? Ten years after the Pixies launched their reincarnation as
a touring band, they've cranked out a new album – exactly what fans praised them for not doing back
in 2004. It might seem like sacrilege, especially without the much-missed sass of Kim Deal, but that
depends on how mystical you want to get about a band as pop as the Pixies. …”
