“Gigantic” “ Gouge Away” “where is my mind” which I’ve been hearing in a few commercials lately are really good ways to get a feel of their sound imo.
Pixies are Nirvana, Radiohead, The Smashing Pumpkins, and Weezer’s biggest influence. A lot of bands were influenced by them. Pixies were the pre cursor of what was to come in 90s and early 2000’s alternative rock and grunge. Pixies were way ahead of their time. Kurt Cobain even said that they were trying to copy them
Lex said that it was really different. 😆 That was the point! '80s alternative music. Ahead of its time for sure. Influenced a lot of bands in future, too ('90s and '00s).
I’d even throw in early modest mouse as highly influenced by the pixies too.
@@TonsMoreCowbell yeah they DEFINITELY belong in this list
Bowie too
@@TonsMoreCowbell yes! Modest Mouse, White Stripes, Interpol, Arcade Fire, and the Strokes
The Pixies are great. You will find a lot of surprising moments listening specially to the Surfer Rosa and the Dolittle. There are very few albums with such a wide spectrum.
the Pixies slapped hard!
Suppressing? Or surprising?? 😉
@@Johonnac thanks - my fault
Indeed - the best way to get to know the Pixies is to listen to these two albums in one piece. Listening to just one song is like looking at a pixel of a painting.
This song is such a present to humanity.
Came here after seeing this posted on FB by Pixies. This was great. I was already a huge Pixies fan before hearing this song, but watching two people hear it for the first was a lot of fun. New subscriber here 🙋♂️
Man you've got 5 albums to check out now - every song on each of them has something wonderfully quirky about it.
At any given moment back in high school you could have asked me what was in my discman and most often my answer would have been either Pixies, Floyd, Zeppelin or Metallica
saw them live at reading festival in 1990 headlining ..at the bottom of the bill was the little known nirvana
Pixies are still one of the best to this day...
I envy you getting to listen to Pixies songs for the first time and experience that culture shock ❤️
I was a teenager when I heard Doolittle and Surferosa for the first time. Blew me away at the time and they still do.
The pixies where very raw and a unique sound for the late 80/
There are so many amazing Pixies songs out there: Debaser, Alec Eiffel, Here Comes Your Man, Dig For Fire, Planet Of Sound, Motorway To Roswell, and the list goes on...
Pixies and Jane's Addiction came immediately before grunge, and were probably 2 of the most direct influences for that entire movement.
The best thing about alternative-i.e. not commercial music-is that it expands the listener’s musical arcs. The Pixies musical painted on canvasses of odd shapes and sizes to make unique art. Unique gets noticed and is built upon hence the endless list of artists the Pixies have influenced. Thank you for doing this reaction!
Pixies, THERE is a rabbithole for you! Everything is totally different for them. They are all over the place. The music is killlllllllller. They're in the rare air of bands like Pink Floyd -- there's just no one like them and they are so inspirational for so many musicians because they broke so many molds. Genres like lo-gi, grunge, grunge-rock, garage rock, alternative, new wave -- the Pixies are considered seminal to them all. You create a pyramid of bands that influenced the most musicians, and the Pixies are gonna be up at the top, above REM, above Nirvana, above so many others that came in the '90s and thereafter.
Just a few to dabble in:
LEVITATE ME
WAVE OF MUTILATION
WHERE IS MY MIND
DEBASER
MONKEY GONE TO HEAVEN
...and countless others. Probably one of the most influential bands ever. Really.
This is one of the best songs ever written. Nothing else sounds like it before or after. I remember being a teenager listening to this in the 90’s and thinking “Wow! This song is genius.”
I'm so glad Brad liked this! Pixies are wonderful!
"Hey!" Literally been my text message tone since my first phone capable of sending texts :)
Been waiting, on you, to do another Pixies song. Brad gets it!
Pixies is probably the most influential alternative bands. When asked about “Smells Like Teen Spirit”, Kurt Cobain said “I was just trying to rip off the Pixies”. He wasn’t joking. If you listen to the Pixies song “Debaser” you can hear the guitar riff from Smells Like Teen Spirit all the way through the song.
Been waiting on this one.
Definitely belongs on a CAKE Playlist.
Add to that list: Eels, They Might Be Giants, The Flaming Lips
Pixies are one of the major indie bands that would go on to influence Grunge in a big way. You should check out Sonic Youth as well.
Ooh. I LOVE Sonic Youth but are they ready??
@@inphanta I think Brad will like Sonic Youth, very unique group. He seems to love alternative/indie rock. and punk rock type music. May take Lex (she does like it too but usually has to grow on her) some time to dig them, though. lol
Public Enemy was recording "Fear of a Black Planet" in the same studio when Sonic Youth was recording "Goo" and they were featured on SY's "Kool Thing". That would be cool. ermmm, Kool.
@@JaneDoe396Hz I remember the music video, too. really cool!
@@JaneDoe396Hz I don't know if it was just before or soon after you posted here about the song and this collaboration, but Couch Gang did react to Kool Thing
Love to see Pixies reactions! Some of their stuff is louder and they were a huge influence on 90's alt-rock. As others have said Kurt Cobain was a huge fan.
As others have stated, Pixies influenced a ton of the greatest bands. I listened to them growing up, but never really could get into them much. Frank Black's voice was a little much for me to get past even when I dug the music. Then I got into Modest Mouse at the beginning of 2000 and it opened up the door to a ton of new (for me) bands like Pixies, Built To Spill, and Califone. I would suggest Gouge Away, Wave of Mutilation (UK Surf), UMass, or Monkey Gone To Heaven (since I know you've already done "Where Is My Mind").
But, it's also interesting to look at what and who influenced the Pixies sound. First time I heard the Gun Club, I thought, now this sounds vaguely familiar. Frank Black must have heard Hüsker Dü and Bad Brains too.
@@RisforRockit If you open up that bag of cats, you start to question what Bad Brains' influence was over music, and you never come back from that black hole/epiphany. Gun Club was a HUGE influence on "The Seattle Sound" and was Mark Lanegan (Screaming Trees and so much more...RIP) favorite band (album?). Husker Du started ALL OF this Pixies/Modest Mouse stuff, and I give them "Rush Respect" (I dont love the band, but I respect the band's obvious greatness and place in music history) for that all day. That's just Frank Black though. Now do the influences of the rest of the band. They are ALL OVER THE MAP. They all come together in this weird soup that is either strangely delicious, or just off enough that I dont want a whole bowl of it. Totally unique and I would understand anybody else obsessing over the band or totally not being able to get into it. MASTERS of doing it their own way, while also pioneering a sound that would pop up in many genres in many ways...launching 1000 Indie Rock ships in the process. Kim Deal, as a bassist, songwriter, and back-up singer, should probably have a statue up somewhere. It blows my mind that she isnt celebrated as a Patron Saint in these "identity driven" times, because she's worthy of every bit of praise one could throw on her.
Thank you for this!!! I'm a huge Pixies fan, but this is probably my favorite Pixies song. Earlier today the official Pixies FB page promoted this, and already being a fan of Brad and Lex, I geeked out and then had to wait through my whole work day before I could watch your reaction to my favorite Pixies song. The wait was worth it! You did not disappoint! Such a great reaction! Ya'll are the best.
Pixies redeemed the 80's, music bloomed into Grunge and pop-punk from here, the guy with the top comment mentioned, a few (British) bands were influenced to form bands by attending Pixies concert I know that at least two members of Blur went to the first night and secured tickets for the next night. Different guys from Radiohead may have attended both, I can't remember and can't be bothered googling it! Special mention to Husker Du for sparking the Pixies idea in Charles and Joey's minds!
To add on to what Noah said, David Bowie was a huge fan of the Pixies. Particularly the lead Man, Charles Thompson a.k.a. Frank Black a.k.a. Black Francis.
This was from one of last years '80s alternative streams. Spring time. We need another one.
Loved them growing up.. so different but so melodic and just their own band.
I listened to Doolittle all the time, I don't think there is one song that I dislike from this.
It's a great album, maybe my favourite album of all time.
Same. Dolittle is one of my default albums. Can always go back to it and just enjoy it.
Pixies are so influential and still a great band.
Hey guys I loved your reaction....pixies are so unique...they've influenced so many bands, radiohead nirvana and many more...thanks again keep the reviews coming, can I suggest blue sky by the Allman brothers 🙏
The Pixies are out there, especially the lyrics, but the music is so groovy. And Brad’s right, Very Cake-like
NO THE.
We love playing this piece on our radio.
Your getting into my teen years. All this is great. Thank You!
The Pixies are nothing but fun.
Awesome! Please do more Pixies!
I'm an old lady now, but they are an incredibly great and influential band. His voice is brilliant! Love seeing someone new find them☺️
I’m so glad to see you reacting to a song I absolutely love.
It's so funny watching Brad fall in love with this tune and his expression going from "woww whats this" to "Oh yeah this is a banger"
I absolutely love this song. I find it mesmerizing
Such a unique sound.
This is such a good song!! I showed this too all my friends! They never heard it before. I felt so cool haha
you really really really should try and catch Pixies live.
Kim Deal's bass playing is never complicated, but it's always Amazing!
Sooo happy you guys listened to this!!! Great karaoke song..lok
We had such mood in our music growing up.
There is new stuff out there that is good, but we had the Pixies.
I remember Frank Black saying he wanted to write songs similar to Happiness is A Warm Gun.
Rolls reversed. Most I've seen Brad move in a long time, least I've seen Lex move.
Brad likes this kind of music?
Yes! I notice Brad likes alternative and indie music. 🎶 And punk rock, ska punk, and others.. I could see him playing stuff like this on a guitar. Unique music style.
Maybe hard rock and country music, too. He likes those.
Doolittle is a friggin masterpiece. I actually let out an audible squeal when I saw the title of this video lol
For some weird but amazing stuff check out "Cocteau Twins". Their song "Heaven or Las Vegas" is a good place to start the journey.
Oh man I am so happy brad likes the Pixies! He always keeps me guessing
An absolute tune by the Pixies is Monkey gone to heaven, please react to this.
Some advice for you both which will help you "feel" and understand the song even more: listen to "Doolittle", the album which contains the song "Hey" all the way through. Great music can be appreciated more within the context of the entire piece
Wow, thanks for introducing me to this song, I love it.
Listen to it a few times and you will find the rhythm. It’s very fun to sing along with too…once you get all the little changes and pauses down. One of kind band. They can be very quiet and very loud. They blew my mind back in the late 80’s when I first heard them. Extremely influential on many bands.
5:12 - Actually, Lex pretty much nailed it right there. 👍
Before she said that, I was about to post: They're actually very talented musicians who just happen love the "garage band" sound/vibe, so that's exactly what they go for.
The best song in the word for me!!! It get me chills every time a hear it!!! The sounds are amazing the completely master piece!! ❤️❤️❤️🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻✨✨✨✨✨✨❤️🤟🏻🤟🏻🤟🏻🤟🏻
Esta canción me la se de memoria😍😎Escuche a pixies por primera vez a los 14 años, gracias a mi hermano, saludos desde Ciudad de México🇲🇽
Yes Kurt Cobain famously said about Nirvana - "Basically we're ripping off the Pixies".
I dig that Brad didn't get too much into the words and just went with it.
I just came on TH-cam to hear some pixies and found a new pixies song and someone new to subscribe too, if you never heard debaser or where is my mind, those are two songs that still gives me chills even after 30 years!!! Great video, great song
Since there are so many pieces of their style in everything out since their heyday, I don't think the uniqueness of the Pixies sound and Frank Black's dynamic compositions translate. Im glad it still holds up as an edgy yet catchy tune to those who haven't heard them yet. But man, when these songs were originally released, no one had heard anything like it before. At least I hadn't.
Pixies are legends
My favorite song from them.
The Boston scene was incredible back then.
Amazing Band!!!
Pixies...So influential.
Founders of alternative music 💯
Brad likes Pixies! It's just instinctive, it's a good noise on the ears, no more more explanation needed really.. 😜Thanks for the reaction!
Everyone influenced by pixies softened their sound to be more successful. Even nirvana after album one, shifted maybe not consciously for nevermind then went back to the raw original model for “in utero” pixies are the owners of the quiet open. They can contrast this with something a soft & beautiful as “wave of mutilation” maybe the Yeah Yeah Yeahs are worth a listen 🎧
That's the Pixies, Baby!!!!
Watch, Pump Up The Volume!!!!
That movie is the Pixies.
Interesting choice. I’d recommend “Gigantic” by The Pixies.
Radiohead worshiped the Pixies back in the day.
Pixies
Pixies were alternative before there was alternative!
this band is a trip - you want some more weird stuff brad and lex? check out at the drive in - One Armed Scissor for example
Don't hold on to music, live through it
Btw, the singer Frank Black is Jack Black's brother for those who don't know
Pixies are awesome. If you want another weird, seminal band you should check out UK band Cardiacs. The singer/composer sadly died not long ago, which is a tragedy for alternative music.
Watching Lex freak out was great. Ha, welcome to the insanity of the Pixies. A band that launched 10,000 bands.
The Pixies were the inspiration for Nirvana.
They should have played (I've been tired) would have blown their minds
Loved how you paused it mid solo.
I can’t offer valid reasons why, but Hey is the greatest song ever created.
This particular Pixies song has a Leonard Cohen/ Velvet Underground level sexiness to it.
check out frank black los angeles. He's the singer from this band.
Yeah man! Pixies!
I only say "been trying to meet you" after I say Hey now
Love the pixies...
the dead weather
master piece
And the sound quality is very good😱
Charles recorded the vocals for this in a closet
Best band in the world
the way you reacted to the way their songs changed, the structure, is the reason the Pixies became the most influential band for ALL band that cane after them. U2, Nirvana, Foo FIghters, etc etc etc . they change the game. literally threw away the set structure of a song and create their own. cake wouldn't exist without the pixies.
Maybe the best Pixies song of them all? As usual, Kim's backing vocals add so much to the atmosphere.
Kim is the best
Gigantic for me! Kim shines
Gouge away for me, but hey it's awesome too
@@JT-ne8du Gigantic is an embarrassment as far as the lyrics go, from the point of view of a person whose white friend has a black boyfriend but in true Pixies fashion the musical sum of it's parts is greater and saved the day when it came out; wouldn't fly now though.
cactus, break my body, tame, hey. in that order.
Brad has a great ear. Pixies are wonderful in the same way Cake is. Odd, great bass, and funky. Love both bands. Pixies were so ahead of their time, they would fit perfectly in the mid 90s.
When he said that I was like, "We gotta get this dude into Ween!"
The 90s was their time.
Wasn’t their base player the one that went on the form the Breeders in the 90s?
@@queenshersei896yep
Kim deal
This song is so underrated. I love the vocal performance in it. A clear influence on Modest Mouse. Brad loves when singers do weird inflections in their vocals.. so he loved this.
Yes, I was thinking the same about MM!
Thank goodness someone said it no one mentions mm when talm bout bands that take such heavy inspo from the pixies like yeah nirvana weezer smashing pumpkins are MASSIVELY bigger and better bands but regardless mm is still in the convo !!!!
@@scarecr0w62 100%
I don’t wanna be that guy but it’s really not underrated. It’s one of their most popular songs.
Modest mouse freely admits they were heavily influenced by the pixies .. they toured with them this past summer and I saw the show with my 22 year old daughter
Everyone unanimously agrees that Pixies are directly responsible for creating alternative rock. Everyone wants to be the Pixies, even to this day. Such a great band.
I feel like I want to give that distinction to Jane's Addiction, but at the same time I don't want to disagree with you
no
Velvet Underground? The Stooges? Television? Sonic Youth? Husker Du? The Replacements? The Clash? Roxy Music? Janes Addiction? Faith No More? I love the Pixies, probably more than any of those bands previously mentioned but they are not directly responsible for alternative rock. An important band and had a big influence on 90s alternative rock but they were not directly responsible for it, many bands played a part in influencing alternative rock in the 90s and beyond.
There were many other bands that influenced the alternative music scene.
Perhaps the Pixies were one of the more influential bands at the time certainly not 'directly responsible' for creating alternative rock.
Did they influence Dinosaur Jr,Sonic Yourh,'Husker Du,Big Black,Mudhoney,The Replacements?
Nope,because all those 'influential' bands came before Pixies.
It’s all post punk- so direct influences to alternative would be the 70s punk bands - major players would be the smiths, the cure, joy division aka new order, all of the early emergent bands that were off shoots of direct punk like X-ray specs, sex pistol, Ramones etc.
