What's not to love about a first-time vinyl pressing of the Pixies....and bonus tracks?
Just announced this week in continuation of the band's 40th anniversary celebrations, Complete B-Sides: 1988-97 by Pixies is being reissued 25 years after its initial release, out June 26, 2026. Having been remastered, the compilation of the band’s timeless “other” tracks will be available on double black vinyl, double clear vinyl, and double CD; also marking the first time the release has been officially pressed on vinyl.
Originally released on CD in 2001, while the band were almost a decade into a hiatus, Complete B-Sides contained 19 b-sides from the band’s classic 4AD era (1988-1991) and featured beloved Pixies tracks including ‘Wave of Mutilation (UK Surf)’, ‘Into The White’, ‘Bailey’s Walk’, and ‘The Thing’. As Pitchfork said in their glowing 9.6 review, “If nothing else, this release proves that, like Dylan in the 60s and Brian Eno in the 70s, the Pixies were the blinding visionaries of the 80s. Virtually everything they touched was groundbreaking and revelatory, leaving one to wish they could only have touched more."
Designer Chris Bigg (v23) has created striking new art, taking photos from Simon Larbalestier’s archive that were originally slated for use by Pixies, but were later shelved. Both long-term collaborators with the band, they worked on both reissues in tandem to remember and honour the band’s late-visual director, Vaughan Oliver.
