Doolittle by Pixies

Before we had mass shootings in the US weird kids just listened to shite like this and got beaten up. Not entirely sure what was worse. 'Here Comes Your Man' is a great song but the rest of the album is pretty weak, some nice melodies but too often interrupted by a gimp having a cy scream. I quite liked the sound of the female singer and some of the lighter moments the album offers which is why it gets an extra star. Too often the band sound like they are trying too hard to cool or different or something, which really doesn't matter as it has all aged really badly. Ooooh aren't we edgy seems to be the order of the day with most of the filler tracks, which is everything but HCYM and Debasser which left me feeling like OK grandpa. At 38 minutes it does outstay it's welcome too, it all becomes rather boring and similar with no attempt to try an do anything different or make a good song.
