Apr 29, 2014While this does seem more like a Frank Black record than a Pixies album proper, it nevertheless is a welcome return in my opinion. Not all of the tracks work well, but there's just enough of the old magic to justify adding this to your collection.

May 8, 2014Overwhelming hype on this album makes it underwhelming on first listen but after a few successions starts to stand out as a an album on par with music made by the pixies 20 years ago! If this album was released after trompe le monde it would fit perfectly in the Pixies legacy.

May 4, 2014I actually enjoyed this album throughout more than their older stuff. It seemed more like REM though than "The Pixies". Classic REM that is... not 2008 REM.
Was just hoping for some of the songs to gain a bit more "Catchiness" to them. -

May 21, 2014Indie Cindy sounds more like a Frank Black solo album than a Pixies one, because you know Kim Deal isn't there and it's not the same without her. This is still a really good record with songs like ''What Goes Boom'', ''Magdalena 318'', ''Blue Eyed Hexe'', and ''Another Toe in the Ocean''.

Jun 16, 2014TRUE Pixies fans will like the album. Is it their best album? No, but it's pretty darn good. The guitars are there, the droning is there, BF's voice is there, yep, you'll like it.

Aug 17, 2021Overhated record! Solid Rock and not much more.
Of course not as good as earlier pixies work but still really good!
Personal Highlights: Greens and Blues

Classic Rock MagazineDec 18, 2014A worthy addition to one of alt.rock's greatest canons. [Jul 2014, p.92]

Jul 23, 2014At least Pixies didn't try to fake their way into recreating every aspect of their former glory. But the music here is so unfortunately forgettable.

MagnetJun 18, 2014Yes, some of these are very stupid songs.... And like Doolittle, there are great songs here. [No. 110, p.58]
