Pixies versus M.I.A.

[The_Reverend_M]

Yep. You're definately wrong. edit: directed at monkeygrinder's organ

As for the poll ... I LOVE the Pixies and am a fan of MIA - am I missing the basis for comparison? She sampled/aquired some lyrics by them (I forget which) on her latest album but beyond that not sure why this thread exists

 

[Paulie Tandoori]

Wtf is it with this fucked up non comparisons? Pixies piss all kinds of shit over that shitty little no talent fuck MIA.

it's called direct democracy innit, should be right up your street, just vote you fucker

um, the track by one is based on a sample by t'other, hence the (rather obv) comparison is all. nothing to see hear, move along...........

Fuck democracy, I've had it with it. Time for one man one vote, that man being me.

Yeah they had daughters who disgraced their families by releasing unholy shit pop music for western markets. It's a sad sad world man...

 

[isitme]

MIA is great

I mean only for 2 songs at a time like....

 

[Wolveryeti]

I hate MIA and her suck-ass deliberately-out-of-tune voice. Plus she looks like a charity shop vomited on her.

What a coincidence: I'm just listening to a Pixies video for the first time. Sort of sounds like Lou Reed.

 

[ouchmonkey]

a clash versus mia thread wouldn't even be fair tbh. would it?

No. The Clash were a load of pub rock sloganeering rubbish.

although I suspect they'd really approve of M.I.A.

is this a very subtle post, the sort of thing which would be unaccustomed round here, or have you really never heard Pixies before?

 

[Paulie Tandoori]

No. The Clash were a load of pub rock sloganeering rubbish.

yes, i think they'd enjoy her undoubted skills. i love her use of straught to hell myself.

(and the clash were too)

 

[cliche guevara]

MIA, just because the pixies are shit.

 

[El Jefe]

MIA is OK - the beats and the way the tracks are put together is great, but I honestly think she's usually the worst thing on her own tunes.

Brilliant line!

 

[rollinder]

more like the 80s revival line in topshop/peacocks

Pixies. The MIA track's ok, but the Pixies are the Pixies, innit.

 

[Fictionist]

Neither, both are hugely over rated

duh! no they're not. calm down

 

[Fictionist]

Yes they are, get a sense of perspective

 

[Paulie Tandoori]

no they're not, they're both brilliant and i just need to refine my opinion a little bit.....

 

[Fictionist]

No,you need to widen hugely the parameters in which any such judgement could be made

 

[Paulie Tandoori]

widen hugely the parameters you say? qu'est que c'est?

 

[Fictionist]

Come on PT, I know you are reasonably bright.....

 

[Paulie Tandoori]

stop sticking your tongue out, you look like a fly or something.....so vote you fucker vote. show your colours, pin the flag to the mast, reveal yourself....

 

[Fictionist]

There doesn't appear to be a 'both are shit and over-rated option'
