1	Bossanova (1990) more music like this by Pixies When Bossanova arrived in 1990, it reflected the exhaustion the Pixies felt after Doolittle's enormous success: For the first time, the band seems to be running out of ideas. Tellingly, Kim Deal contributes no songs, having formed the Breeders to give her work an outlet; that summer, their debut Pod won a warmer response than Bossanova received. ... see all copies from £2.73! new only from £8.29!
2	Doolittle (1989) more music like this by Pixies After 1988's brilliant but abrasive Surfer Rosa, the Pixies' sound couldn't get much more extreme. Their Elektra debut, Doolittle, reins in the noise in favor of pop songcraft and accessibility. Producer Gil Norton's sonic sheen adds some polish, but Black Francis' tighter songwriting focuses the group's attack. Doolittle's most ferocious moments, ... see all copies from £4.07! new only from £8.01!
3	I'm Your Fan: The Songs of Leonard Cohen By... (1991) more music like this by Various Artists An incoherent tribute to Leonard Cohen, I'm Your Fan contains some fine versions of some of his best songs, but too often these renditions are half-hearted. Of particular interest are R.E.M.'s "First We'll Take Manhattan" and The Pixies' "I Can't Forget." Stephen Thomas Erlewine, All Music Guide see all copies from £5.43! new only from £7.65!
4	Wave of Mutilation: The Best of Pixies (2004) more music like this by Pixies 4AD tries, tries again with Wave of Mutilation: The Best of the Pixies, the second Pixies best-of they've released since the band broke up in 1992 and the companion piece to the long-awaited, simultaneously released DVD Pixies. Lessons have been learned from 1997's half-baked Death to the Pixies: this compilation's track listing is in more or less ... see all copies from £7.26! new only from £7.26!
5	Surfer Rosa [Reissue] (2003) more music like this by Pixies One of the most compulsively listenable college rock albums of the '80s, the Pixies' 1988 full-length debut Surfer Rosa fulfilled the promise of Come on Pilgrim and, thanks to Steve Albini's production, added a muscular edge that made their harshest moments seem even more menacing and perverse. On songs like "Something Against You," Black Francis' ... see all copies from £7.67! new only from £7.67!
6	Trompe le Monde (1991) more music like this by Pixies The title might be French for "fool the world," but with Trompe le Monde, the Pixies weren't fooling anyone: this was essentially Black Francis' solo debut. It focuses on Francis' sci-fi fascination and lacks any Kim Deal songs; even her backing vocals are far and few between. Yet the band sounds revitalized on Trompe le Monde, as if it were ... see all copies from £2.73! new only from £8.12!
7	Come on Pilgrim [EP] (1987) more music like this by Pixies Amazingly, the Pixies' 1987 debut EP, Come on Pilgrim, was compiled from the quickly, inexpensively made demo tape -- paid for by Black Francis' dad -- the band made at Boston's legendary Fort Apache studio soon after they formed. 4AD was so taken with the tape that they released eight of the songs as this mini-album. It's easy to see why they ... see all copies from £6.83! new only from £6.83!
8	Surfer Rosa (1988) more music like this by Pixies One of the most compulsively listenable college rock albums of the '80s, the Pixies' 1988 full-length debut Surfer Rosa fulfilled the promise of Come on Pilgrim and, thanks to Steve Albini's production, added a muscular edge that made their harshest moments seem even more menacing and perverse. On songs like "Something Against You," Black Francis' ... see all copies from £4.42! new only from £13.15!
9	Complete B-Sides (2001) more music like this by Pixies Like the rest of 4AD's Pixies retrospectives, Complete B-Sides is equally exciting and frustrating: Many of their B-sides are just as good as their album tracks, so it's terrific to see them collected onto a single disc. But a number of factors make it somewhat disappointing, not the least of which is that Complete B-Sides is available only as a U ... see all copies from £6.39! new only from £6.39!
10	Dig for Fire (1990) more music like this by Pixies see all copies from £2.73! new only from £4.15!
11 view cover	Surfer Rosa/Come on Pilgrim (1988) more music like this by Pixies When Rough Trade reissued the Pixies' seminal full-length debut album, Surfer Rosa, on CD, they added the terrific mini-album Come on Pilgrim as a bonus. While it's nice to have these two records on one disc, the sequencing of Come on Pilgrim after Surfer Rosa is a little disconcerting, since the two albums each have distinctive sounds that clash ... see all copies from £15.54! new only from £15.54!
12 view cover	Pixies (2002) more music like this by Pixies Most Pixies fans know that the mini-album Come On Pilgrim was taken from The Purple Tape, the 17-song demo the group cut during their first studio session in 1987. Fifteen years later, Pixies answer the nagging question, "What became of the rest of the demos?" While many of them appeared on bootlegs, this nine-song collection is a useful document ... see all copies from £5.71!
13 view cover	Death to the Pixies 1987-1991 (1997) more music like this by Pixies Death to the Pixies distills the highlights of the Pixies' remarkably consistent catalog. Most of the usual suspects are here: "Debaser," "Here Comes Your Man," "Bone Machine," "Gigantic," "Where Is My Mind?," "Velouria," "Nimrod's Son," "Wave of Mutilation," and "Monkey Gone to Heaven." Disc Two is a 21-song live disc culled from a terrific 1990 ... see all copies from £9.39! new only from £18.41!
14 view cover	The Bridge: A Tribute to Neil Young (1989) more music like this by Various Artists In theory, The Bridge: A Tribute to Neil Young was a perfect concept, since most alternative bands of the late '80s owed the singer/songwriter a heavy debt. In practice, it wasn't entirely satisfying. Some groups, like Bongwater's collage of "Mr. Soul," made their interpretations self-consciously distinctive, while others, like Soul Asylum and ... see all copies from £8.06! new only from £10.37!

16 view cover	Surfer Rosa [Limited Edition] (2007) more music like this by Pixies One of the most compulsively listenable college rock albums of the '80s, the Pixies' 1988 full-length debut Surfer Rosa fulfilled the promise of Come on Pilgrim and, thanks to Steve Albini's production, added a muscular edge that made their harshest moments seem even more menacing and perverse. On songs like "Something Against You," Black Francis' ... see all copies from £19.53! new only from £19.53!
17 view cover	Pixies at the BBC (1998) more music like this by Pixies Between 1988 and 1991, the Pixies performed six sessions at the BBC, playing on a variety of programs. For years, these sessions were hot bootleg items, especially since their first session for John Peel (on May 3, 1988) featured two otherwise unreleased covers -- the Beatles' "Wild Honey Pie" and "(In Heaven) Lady in the Radiator Song," from ... see all copies from £6.38! new only from £8.12!
18 view cover	Monkey Gone to Heaven (1989) more music like this by Pixies Containing the college radio hit "Monkey Gone to Heaven," this EP showcases that track along with three additional songs that weren't available on the Doolittle LP. Vocalist/rhythm guitarist Black Francis and group manage to make two of the three songs interesting. You hear an especially different Pixies on "Weird at my School," which delves into ... see all copies from £3.41! new only from £11.61!
19 view cover	On the Edge [Razor & Tie] (2000) more music like this by Various Artists Razor & Tie's On the Edge collects late-'80s/early-'90s alternative hits like the Pixies' "Here Comes Your Man," the La's "There She Goes," Elvis Costello's "Veronica," and Crowded House's "Don't Dream It's Over." REM's "Orange Crush," the Smiths' "How Soon Is Now," Jane's Addiction's "Been Caught Stealing," and the Red Hot Chili Peppers' "Higher ... see all copies from £2.73!

24 view cover	Rubaiyat: Elektra's 40th Anniversary (1990) more music like this by Various Artists The label's current artists cover its all-timers, e.g., The Cure meets The Doors. An interesting idea, it has sketchy results. Dan Heilman, All Music Guide see all copies from £4.30!
