QUOTE: | New Numbered Limited Edition Mini-LP-Style Packaging! To follow up their 1988 classic Surfer Rosa, the Pixies brought Gil Norton (Echo & The Bunnymen, Patty Smith, Foo Fighters) on board to produce. The result, 1989's Doolittle (only their second full LP and major-label debut) was an equally brilliant if not superior release to its predecessor. A full-on sensory audio roller coaster, these forty minutes are both a benchmark and timeless monument, mixing surf-pop, alternative and grunge with schizophrenic pacing and lulls-to-head banging jolts. Over forty percent of this album was chosen to make up a 1997 compilation. Case closed. 5 STARS, All Music Guide Featuring: "Monkey Gone To Heaven", "Wave Of Mutilation", "Here Comes Your Man", "Debaser" and "Hey" |
