Strange Talk - Cast Away is coming out April 29. It's been out in Australia for like a year, maybe more. In summary, the music industry are stupid dinosaurs. The end. [youtube]KSbA_tm7Ntw[/youtube] [youtube]SxDLd0bhhKk[/youtube]
I don't get the obsession with these guys. Once you've heard one of their songs, you've heard them all.
Kinda. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/EP1_(Pixies_EP) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/EP2_(Pixies_EP) I had never listened to Pixies until like a year ago, when I randomly listened to all their albums. Or at least the first three - can't remember if I finished. I thought Surfer Rosa was overrated but the rest was solid.
