Black Is Back
The Pixies leader talks about the break-up, the reunion, and the band?Äôs return to Boston.
"Though Thompson gets to it in only a roundabout way, it?Äôs clear (as it was a dozen years ago) that there was friction between him and Deal. When I bring up the Breeders and the success they had post-Pixies, his response is, "People have success for all kinds of reasons. It?Äôs showbiz. So the Breeders didn?Äôt surprise me. I have come to realize more than I realized back then that Kim has a lot of charisma. I mean she just stands there smoking a cigarette and people go bananas. People just like her. I don?Äôt know why. I?Äôm not saying she?Äôs not likable. But she doesn?Äôt have to parade around going, ?ÄòLook at me, look at me,?Äô and people still go nuts over her. I hate to sound like I?Äôm getting down on women performers because there are just as many if not more shitty male performers, but there are a lot of women in rock who kind of play up the whole sexual thing even when they?Äôre supposedly not playing up the sexual thing. There?Äôs nothing wrong with that. But that is what it is. And Kim doesn?Äôt do that. So when she doesn?Äôt do all the stupid shit and say, ?ÄòLook at my boobs, everybody,?Äô and she just stands there in her jeans and rumpled T-shirt, it just drives men insane. She?Äôs totally being herself. I think people sense that. They appreciate that she?Äôs not going for all the obvious moves because she?Äôs a gal or dumbing the whole thing down. She just has this attitude that?Äôs like, I?Äôm going to rock and either you like me or you don?Äôt, but I don?Äôt give a shit. People love that. And before, I may have been put off by that, for whatever the reason."

Gigantic Steps
It took money troubles to get the celebrated Pixies back together. But no one could have predicted the large and passionate crowds that have greeted the band on its first tour in more than a decade.

Magical Pixies: Montreal Review
The reunited rockers sounded fabulously weird at CEPSUM stadium, their exhilarating set showing they're still ahead of their time.
It sounds like a recipe for nostalgia: reunite your band after more than a decade, and plunge into one of the most influential repertoires of the late 1980s and early '90s. But there was never anything warm and fuzzy about Pixies.

Pixies Sail Into Town On A Wave Of Adulation
The Pixies' reunion concert on Saturday night, the first of five at the Aragon Ballroom, may go down as the ticket of the year, but it kicked off with all the fanfare of a bus ride: "Hi!" welcomed Kim Deal, behind a warm little smirk.
And with humility out of the way, for the following 90 minutes, the Pixies' desperately awaited reunion did everything it was supposed to do, revived everything it was supposed to revive, relegated over a decade's worth of alt-radio replicas to their places and helped put the Boston quartet's legacy squarely before more mainstream eyes.
