DESCRIPTION
US alternative rock band formed in early 1986 in Boston, Massachusetts. The original lineup consisted of Black Francis (real name Charles Michael Kittridge Thompson IV) (vocals, guitar), Kim Deal (bass, vocals (1986 to 2013), Joey Santiago (guitar) and Dave Lovering (drums).

Kim Deal left the band in 2013, and was briefly replaced for live performances by Kim Shattuck, before Paz Lenchantin joined the band as permanent bass player.

'Surfer Rosa' is the first full-length album by Pixies, released in March 1988 on the British independent record label 4AD.

The album's unusual and offbeat subject matter includes references to mutilation and voyeurism; this is augmented by experimental recording techniques and a distinctive drum sound. 'Surfer Rosa' contains many of the elements present in Pixies' earlier output, including Spanish lyrics and references to Puerto Rico.

'Surfer Rosa' is often cited as a favorite of music critics and is frequently included on professional lists of the all-time best rock albums. Many alternative rock artists, including Billy Corgan and PJ Harvey, have cited the album as inspirational; Nirvana's Kurt Cobain frequently acknowledged that 'Surfer Rosa' was a strong influence on 'Nevermind,' and, in 1993, Cobain hired the album's recording engineer Steve Albini to record his band's album 'In Utero.'
