Pixies "Distance Equals Rate Times Time" Trompe le Monde
I know it's not a popular view among Pixiefiles, but I loves me some Trompe le Monde.
Alec Eiffell attends U Mass, finds it educational, and climbs the Olympus Mons?
(With a sweet Jesus & mary Chain Cover?)
Sign me up.
Sign me up.
I sort of forget how much I loved the Pixies, and I did like TlM a lot, too. Particularly the way "Palace of the Brine" slammed right into "Letter to Memphis."
