Pixies announce 25th anniversary Doolittle reissue
This year is the 25th anniversary of The Pixies’ Doolittle, the band’s most celebrated album and arguably their best — though there’s certainly an argument for Surfer Rosa. We’re not going to get into that right now. To celebrate the anniversary, 4AD is releasing an expanded, three-disc reissue of the album that features two bonus discs full of Peel Sessions material, B-Sides, Demos and more. The reissue also features updated artwork by Vaughn Oliver, which you can see above, and will be available on both CD and vinyl on Dec. 2 (one day earlier in the UK/Europe).
