The Pixies - Black Francis, Joey Santiago, Kim Deal, and David Lovering - are unquestionably one of the greatest indie rock bands of all time. 'Surfer Rosa' captured the immense genius talent and fire-power of this incredible and too short lived band.
Credited for producing the blueprint for such bands as Nirvana and Radiohead, The Pixies have created their own classic and incomparable sound. The Pixies' initial six years of existence blew a breath of fresh air through both the independent and national charts.
From the backwoods of Boston to headlining festivals worldwide, the band combined blistering guitar work with a unique approach to songwriting and became one of the most acclaimed acts in independent music. 'Surfer Rosa / Come On Pilgrim' showcases just how The Pixies redefined rock music.
