Member Movie Reviews K. K. (GAMER) Reviewed on 5/4/2025... The Pixies is music that you have to let grow on you since no other bad is like them in singing or their music style. There's one song you will really enjoy that you know and other songs you will like some and not like others.
Movie ReviewsIntimate Pixies Phil NJ | NJ USA | 08/25/2006 (5 out of 5 stars) "Really good video. Most of the songs translate to acoustic really well. Compared to "Pixies Sell-out", this has quite a very different, more subtle dynamic. Francis's weird, edgy lyrics become much clearer. A good thing! Stand-outs: "Mr. Grieves", "Wave of Mutilation", "Gauge Away", "Hey" and "Debaser"...from the BTS docu. Excellent behind-the-scenes bonus footage. You get an intimate view of the band working out the new arrangements." Great Set For The Fans GK128 | Providence, RI | 08/23/2006 (4 out of 5 stars) "This DVD isn't going to blow any non-Pixies fans away, but if you love The Pixies like I do then pick this up." Not tame. Jason Steiner | Glendale, AZ USA | 08/28/2006 (5 out of 5 stars) "From the behind-the-scenes practice and dress rehersal on this DVD, it's apparent that the Pixies were not particularly comfortable performing an acoustic set. They had no reason to be nervous. It takes a lot more than a distortion pedal to make a Pixies song a Pixies song, and removing it just brings those signature elements to the surface. In particular, Joey's expressive guitar playing. Sounds I once assumed to be synthetic are now obviously the result of his gonzo style. But everyone contributes, and the clean acoustic arrangements make the sheer energy and catchiness of many Pixies songs stand out. How can you not sing along to "Hey" or "Gigantic"?
Pixies fans will buy this DVD regardless, but I think it may make a great introduction for new listeners. If you're just curious about the Pixies, give it a listen. Sing along a little. You'll like it." |
