I finally got around to buying Bossanova by Pixies. I wasn’t too sure how it could ever compare to Surfer Rosa and Doolittle. I’m glad I gave it a chance. I’ve listened to it twice through, and I am 98% sure it will grow on anyone who listens to it more than once.
I had read so many things about Velouria being amazing, so I was kind of figuring it would be stupidly overrated. It’s not. It is freaking great. The other songs are awesome too, but Velouria is definitely the one that has stood out the most over my two listens.
As a whole though, it is THE most fitting album to listen to with headphones, while lying on your bed and looking through a liquid filled kaleidoscope. I just nicknamed that activity Kaleidoscope Gazing. It fits ridiculously.
