I wouldn't exactly suggest making it a college class, but I think it would be cool if there were people devoted to interpreting what exactly is happening in songs like this one. From a philosophic perspective, what exactly is likeable about a gutiar that sounds like it's being played on a rainy day in a barn, mixing with this big drum beat, mixed with these people's weary, jaded voices altogether make? There's something going on with the Pixies, something they are trying to say, intentionally sad and desparing. I don't know what it is, but I think this sounds of this song influences the sounds of the 90's. Not to try to deconstruct the sounds of other bands into being influenced by the Pixies, but I am curious to what feeling the Pixies are creating and what kind of feeling that would leave other bands wanting to feel like. It's no so much that other bands are unoriginal by this kind of offbeat country, weary voiced sound, but it's that they connect with the pixies music and want to recreate the feeling or emotion of the song. "Hey we are not trying to be like the Pixies, we just feel like the pixies, therefore our music may sound similar." Therefore what is the feeling and meaning of the Pixies sound that was so contagious to music.
One of the problems I have with listening to music is that there isn't much dialouge to why we feel the way we do when we listen to it. Why do I like the Pixies? It's much more than a like, there's something that connects in the heart with the sounds of the music. Normally we like things that make us happy, I do not think the Pixies make me happy, rather they can at time reinforce any numbness that I feel in life. So it's like having a conversation with somebody frustrated with life.
I assume that Rolling Stone, SPIN, AP and other music magazines were origianlly the people who explained what and how the music was making us feel and why we feel a certain way when we feel it. However, there is no dialouge of how music makes us feel and why we feel it. At least, I don't think there is, and I would desire an outlet or at least other people telling us why my soul feels a way whenever you hear the big "BOOM" in "Silver."
y'know I actually checked the name to convince me I didn't write this myself when I was in a unaware mode. Not at all to dismeanor or belittle you. Im no sludge from NY or NJ.
I am a bit highhanded myself. But I give you this, you are more highhanded. But since then you have changed. No doubt in my mind that you did. Pity you didn't never meet my girlfriend.
