The Pixies vs Nirvana

Interesting, yes. Maybe the first couple of times. But it doesn't really warrant repeated listening to me. It hurts my ears. But hey, I'm no music connoisseur.

I feel basically the opposite. After 19 years, it's one of the only tracks on the album I'm not tired of.

I've only been listening to it for about a year. Hell, I've only been listening to whole albums for two years, so you're the better judge. I'll give it another shot.

I think I enjoy pretty much every track by either band. I think the only Nirvana tracks I can't do are Moist Vagina and New Wave Polly, and the only Pixies tracks that bug me I can't even remember the names of, but I'm certain they're on Bossanova.

'Polly (New Wave)' is one of my favorites by Nirvana.

So much better than the Nevermind version.

But yeah, Bossanova kinda bores me...

It doesn't even approach the Nevermind version.

I voted that I like them both the same. Two very great bands that have influenced me a lot. I love the way the Pixies use dynamics.
