About
Heading into <i>Bossanova</i>, the Pixies were at an impasse. If 1988’s <i>Surfer Rosa</i> had made the band underground heroe, the following year’s <i>Doolittle</i> had landed them somewhere between real popularity and mainstream appeal two years later. (Interviewed for <i>People</i> magazine in 1989, a sign of the times in and of itself, Black Francis said he no longer had to worry about paying for a movie ticket but that his favorite place to write was still the bathroom.) They were touring a lot and fighting like it, too. Frustrated by her voice in the band (or lack thereof), bassist Kim Deal formed the Breeders—an equally great band—and for a little while, the Pixies were on pause. .
