Beneath The Eyrie - Pixies: Review
Pixies are a legendary American experimental rock band who released a run of four records in the late 80's into the early 90's that is considered among the greatest runs in all of rock music history. After breaking up at the tail end of this run and the departure of one of their key members Kim Deal in 2013, they were set up for a disappointing return. In 2014 the band dropped their comeback 5th record Indie Cindy to critical ire from across the board. Critics and fans alike were let down by the bands cheapened and forgettable attempt at continuing to push the envelope of rock but falling far short. They improved on their next record but just barely as 2016's Head Carrier received only slightly less negative reviews. All of this led to expectations being low for Beneath The Eyrie with Pixies yet to establish themselves since their reunion as anywhere near the band they were before.
