2 serious classics that have very little to do with each other...
If you dont like the Pixies, then get the hell out. Just kidding...but seriously, dont piss me off...listen to this album a hundred times.
If you dont own this album, I forgive you, but God wont. He is a HUGE Rites of Spring fan and he told me he would personally bitchslap anyone that doesnt get into them right now. Now meaning yesterday, so get on it!

For some reason, I always prefer Bossanova and Trompe le monde over Doolittle
i can live with that...Trompe Le Monde is pretty awesome....Surfer Rosa is also on that level....
Bossanova, while execellent, is my least fave of their albums...
Just curioous as to what you think of Rites of Spring as opposed to Embrace. I've always liked Rites of Spring that little bit more, even though they're both amazing emotional experiences.
Oh yeah, and I don't listen to the Pixies much. They're not punk enough
haha!!! yeah. only Surfer Rosa is punk in anyway. and only about half the album...
I do in fact like Rites of Spring more...Embrace never did it for me until later in life. but i always likd RoS...
i have a great comp of Embrace covers...its the whole album done by mid 90's hardcore bands like Lifetime, Avail, Undertow, Groundwork, Ashes and others....check back in the very first few posts here, and if it is active, grab it. otherwise let me know and i will re-up for you...
hey... just found your blog and am LOVING it... i too own the comp of embrace covers, and after the embrace album being one of my favourites for years up until that point, the comp took over for quite a while, well into the 21st century. it definitely blew my mind, especially lifetime doing "money" with that new jersey swagger in the vocals, avail's awesome leads at the start of "said gun", and sparkmarker, one of my 90's faves, doing "do not consider yourself free". that's a comp everyone should have, especially since it was a homeless benefit. shame it's been out of print for oh so long.
