Pixies - Trompe Le Monde (30th Anniversary) [Green Vinyl]

On their fourth album, Trompe Le Monde, the Pixies were still restless to push their sound forward. Trompe Le Monde goes full throttle with 15 tracks coming in a quickfire 40-minute salvo. Recorded between Burbank, Paris, and London, with producer Gil Norton again at the controls, the record is arguably their most playful, with Black Francis's lyrics on UFOs and conspiracy theories keeping things weird while power pop creeps in to amplify the space rock established on predecessor Bossanova.

The 1991 record features the singles "Planet of Sound", "Alec Eiffel", "Letter to Memphis" and "Head On" - an amazing Jesus and Mary Chain cover.

Limited Edition GREEN MARBLE vinyl produced by Matador Records in 2021.
