Pixies - Trompe le Monde - LP

180 Gram Vinyl — the thunderous close of Pixies' golden run, newly remastered from the original analogue tapes for the band's 40th anniversary!

Continuing the band's 40th anniversary celebrations, Pixies are repressing Trompe le Monde (1991) with newly remastered audio — engineer Kevin Vanbergen returned to the original analogue tapes to deliver stunning new masters that reveal more layers to this much-loved record. Translated from French as "fool the world," the band's fourth album, produced by Gil Norton, is arguably their most playful — Black Francis' lyrics on UFOs and conspiracy theories keep things weird while power pop creeps in to amplify the space rock of Bossanova. Fifteen tracks in a quickfire 40-minute salvo, bookending a golden run of landmark records that cemented Pixies as one of the best of a generation.
