i’m sick of hearing about the pixies

the pixies are in australia at the moment. they are a very important band, who invented music, and also invented time and space. many may previously have believed that the pixies emerged as a by-product of the conjunction of time and space, but it turns out that they actually predate material existence, as evidenced by the phenomenal potency of their musical importance. i remember the first time i heard a pixies song, it was soon after that that i began to perceive the seventh dimension.

I love Pixies, but this is still hilarious.

Yes, I agree with Emily. But what a funny idiot you are ;)

Just picture a pile of turds covered in piss, in a bed of caramell vomit. Then add some ear wax and boogers. That’s you.

Fucking shit It’s true Pixies are egocentric like Jack Gallgher and his fucking brother. Pixies did not invent music, they create some music. It’s a band that’s all. Descartes, He invented something big, close to space and time. Use your mind!

i would like to shit and piss in the mouth of the person who done this. a really sloppy shit, and really dehydrated yellow piss. ill then wipe my arse on there nose. i would then proceed in doing the peoples elbow on them followed by the worm and even maybe do the 3D with a willing tag team partner. if they dont mind getting all shitty.

finally, some intelligent debate on this page

13 tim k { 12.21.08 at 10:10 am }

they didnt invent music… i did.

14 Dave { 02.01.09 at 11:57 pm }

The pixies are a fucking deadly band. Kim Deal is a bit of a prick but they’re still great. The picture is funny but Charles Michael Kittridge Thompson IV DID invent music, time and space.

I love the pixies and do believe they invented music or at least modern-day rock, but this is funny in a satirical kind of way.

“Cool Quotes”

“Psychedelic. Balearic. Straight up pop. Call it what you want, this is memorable music.” keytarsandviolins

“Lush, dreamy future pop that just begs you to dive in headfirst, your heart in close second. Just be careful how many times you dip in – you might find yourself blissfully lost in here.” mess+noise

“Impressive elastic strands of plaited sense associations; extract of flashy disco, pastoral swoon and computer exploration.” threethousand

“A total cottage industry – one guy recording, pressing and releasing his own music – and it’s an example of how to do it right from the bottom up.” Stylus

“A manic journey of sounds, bound by neither genre nor era.” Beat

“Cuts-and-pastes big samples with delicately rendered instrumentation. A party jam. Four stars.” Pitchfork
