=pal/ Region 0, Live 1988, Videos, On The Road & Docu= |
| | Description: | A complete live concert from the groundbreaking band recorded in 1988 at London's Town & Country Club with about an hour of live material augmented with 8 promotional videos: "Monkey Gone to Heaven", "Here Comes Your Man", "Velouria", "Dig for Fire", "Alec Eiffel", "Head On" and "Debaser". Also includes behind the scenes footage of the band on the road and "Gouge", a documentary telling the story of the band featuring remembrances from David Bowie, Jonny Greenwood & Thom Yorke (Radiohead), Graham Coxon (ex-Blur), Fran Healey & Andy Dunlop (Travis), P.J. Harvey, Tim Wheeler (Ash), Gavin Rosdale (Bush) and Damon Gough (Badly Drawn Boy).Tracks 1 to 15 recorded on 1st May 1988 at The Town and Country Club, London. Mixed at Southern Studios. 5.1 mix at Mensch.
The DVD also contains 'On the road' footage and 'Gouge', which shows several other artists commenting their own experiences of the Pixies and how the band influenced them.
This captivating DVD release, issued by the renowned independent music powerhouse 4AD/Beggars Group/Indigo, offers an in-depth portrait of the legendary alternative rock band Pixies. Focusing on their groundbreaking contribution to indie and alternative music, the film combines rare performance footage, archival material, interviews, and background stories to trace the Pixies' rise from Boston's underground scene to global cult status. Viewers gain insight into the band's distinctive sound--dynamic loud-quiet-loud structures, surreal lyrics, and a unique blend of punk urgency and pop sensibility--that would profoundly influence the rock landscape of the late 1980s and 1990s.
The DVD explores key creative phases around classic albums such as "Surfer Rosa", "Doolittle" and "Bossanova", and charts how tracks like "Where Is My Mind?", "Debaser" or "Monkey Gone to Heaven" became reference points for an entire generation of musicians. In interviews and commentary segments, band members reflect on songwriting, studio work and life on tour, while collaborators and scene observers shed light on the cultural context and the enduring legacy of the group. High-quality sound and picture mastering, as well as thoughtfully curated extras (such as additional scenes or extended interview clips, where included), make this DVD an attractive choice both for long-time fans and for newcomers discovering the Pixies for the first time.
The production is released by 4AD/Beggars Group/Indigo, a label constellation that has long stood for artistic independence and stylistic diversity. 4AD and the Beggars Group have played a key role in shaping alternative and indie music since the 1980s, working with influential artists across genres and giving innovative bands the freedom to develop their own distinctive aesthetics. Indigo, as an experienced distribution and label partner in the German-speaking market, is known for carefully curated catalogues and high production standards, ensuring that important releases from the international indie world are made accessible to a broad audience.
Central figures in this film are the members of the Pixies themselves. Frontman and songwriter Black Francis (also known as Frank Black) is presented as the creative driving force whose unconventional compositions, striking vocal style and rich discography outside the band have secured him a permanent place in alternative rock history. Lead guitarist Joey Santiago is highlighted for his inventive, often minimalist guitar work that helped define the band's unmistakable sound and has been widely praised for its influence on later guitar-based music. Bassist and singer Kim Deal is portrayed as a charismatic musician whose contributions to the Pixies and subsequent success with The Breeders significantly shaped the sound of alternative rock, while drummer David Lovering's precise, dynamic playing is shown as the rhythmic backbone that holds together the band's unpredictable arrangements.
Where a director or additional leading creative figures are featured, the film emphasizes their experience in music-related and documentary projects, focusing on a sensitive visual language that captures both the raw energy of the band and the more intimate, reflective moments. Instead of sensationalism, the production opts for a respectful, detailed approach that situates the Pixies within the broader history of modern rock music. By combining musical highlights with personal insights, this DVD becomes more than a simple concert or portrait--it serves as a comprehensive audiovisual document of one of the most influential bands in alternative rock. | | | Age rating: |
