The group, consisting of Black Francis, Kim Deal, Joey Santiago, and David Lovering, is known for their distinctive mix of punk energy, indie sensibility, and surf rock influences.

Their third album, Doolittle (1989), is considered an alternative rock classic. With hits such as "Debaser" and "Here Comes Your Man," the band’s innovative blend of loud and soft dynamics made a significant impact on the music scene and influenced bands like Nirvana.

The Pixies disbanded in 1993, but their legacy continued to grow. They reunited in 2004, sparking new interest in their music. Their recent albums, including Indie Cindy (2014) and Head Carrier (2016), brought them back into the spotlight.
