When the Alternative scene exploded into the mainstream many pointed to Seattle as the origin of it all. Funny, how many of those bands pointed back East to the Pixies as the group who was really responsible.

With Pop hooks laden with jagged start stop motions and roaring guitars, the Pixies were unlike any other band of their time. This was a band that simultaneously followed the rules of Rock and Roll construction yet broke them at the same time. Virtually every Alternative act of the 90’s pointed to the Pixies as a major influence and though they were not the band that became a household name, they paved the way for many who did. Incidentally, it is these facts that could see the Pixies as a first ballot entry or perpetually omitted from the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
