it's just personal preference

I realise the influence they've had, especially on even more influential bands like Nirvana

Ok fair enough, but in that case then surely it'd make more sense to say "not a mediocre band, but I don't like them."

favourite album without a doubt- doolittle.
all their songs are quality. Doolittle is easily the best album

Pixies are one of my favorite bands, and my most listened to artist on Last.FM by far. I love Alternative music, and it doesn't get any better than the Pixies.

I would agree with many of you that Doolittle is their best effort, with Surfer Rosa and Bossanova close behind. Trompe Le Monde is a great album, just not a classic like the others. I think if they would have limited the number of tracks to 11 or so on Trompe Le Monde that I would hold it in as high regard as I do the other albums.
