Best of 2014 #5 - The Pixies - Indie Cindy (PixiesMusic)

I was incredibly habit to finally hear new music coming out from the legendary noise-pop band The Pixies. After years of touring, the band finally gave its fans some new music to chew on. And it was good, but not without controversy (I've already written about this, so I won't go into it in detail.) Could there be a Pixies without Kim Deal. Yes, there could be, and they made a damned fine album. This is not Doolittle, and nor should it be. This is the 2014 Pixies and they're just about as good as they can be. Indie Cindy was a very solid effort of noisy, melodic post-punk with Frank Black's odd lyrics intact. No idea if the band will continue with new music, but no matter. This holds up well to the Pixies' legacy and is a nice kick off to a possible future.
