EVERYONE’S A CRITIC
Pixies Head Carrier By Andrew Perez
From forming in Boston in 1986 to being one of the chief influences on Kurt Cobain and scoring that last shot in David Fincher’s Fight Club, the Pixies have come a long way.
Head Carrier, the Pixies’ second album since reform- ing in 2004 (the first being 2014’s Indie Cindy), continues the band’s winning formula of oddball alternative rock. The Pixies sound like nobody else, and

despite losing cofound- ing bassist Kim Deal in 2013, the band retains its unique insanity. From the Talking
Heads–like title track that opens the album to the tender “All the Saints” that closes it, Head Carrier is an enjoyable romp.
A solid entry in the Pixies’ oeuvre
Lead guitarist Joey Santiago’s dreamlike warble is highlighted in “Might As Well Be Gone,” “Oona,” and the catchy “All I Think About Now,” which sounds like a companion song to “Where Is My Mind.”
Other highlights include the frantic “Baal’s Back,” the silly “Um Chagga Lagga,” and the strange “Plaster of Paris.”
Sometimes the album missteps, like on the predictable “Talent” and “Classic Masher,” but overall, Head Carrier is a solid entry in the Pixies’ oeuvre.
Music Reviews from Our Readers
Guided by Pollard By Dryw Keltz
Guided by Voices’ per- formance was minimal on both sloppy drunk- enness and actual GBV songs. Of the 53 songs performed, more than 20 were from either Robert Pollard side projects or solo albums and 8 were from the new Guided by Voices album Please Be Hon- est, which is, since we’re being honest, a Pollard solo album. The fact that the show wasn’t a march of “the hits” did allow some minor gems from Pollard’s songwrit-
ing catalog to get played live and loud. “Tabby and Lucy” and “Love Is Stronger than Witchcraft” were standouts The show felt
At over two hours with two encores, you got to wait for the GBV nugs.
like a performance by a pro-level band. Doug Gil- lard’s contribution to this outfit can’t be under- stated, as his guitar wizardry is the jelly to Pollard’s peanut butter.
The show stretched to over two hours, but the die-hards that hung in there were treated to some tasty GBV nugs (“Motor Away,” “Don’t Stop Now,” “Teenage FBI”), which were sprinkled among two sets of encores.
