Si bien todo el mundo elige a Doolittle como el mejor album de los Pixies para mí esté EP fue el que lo inició todo, contiene todo lo que hizo grandes a la banda, la fuerza, la energía, las letras, la hermosa voz de Kim contrastando a la de Black Francis. En mi opinión la mejor forma de iniciarse en una banda.

Know....l I’m sure you did...
