I feel like I've just listened to a Pixies record, and all it left me with was a desire to go and listen to the Pixies. This isn't a terrible record, they play very well as a group, it's just not their sound I'm listening to. Their debut self-titled record had a southern rock n' roll sound, while this album is all over the place with its influences. In isolation there are some great tracks to listen to here. The second track Aberdeen seems to set up the sound for the record but then it's sadly a jumbled mess from there on out. Go and listen to the Pixies or The Stooges instead, but if you're curious you can listen below.
