Pixies

In June 2010, during their European tour, the Pixies were riding the wave of renewed fame following their 2004 reunion. This period was marked by the re-release of their classic albums and fresh energy in their performances. Just before this live recording at Le Zénith in Nantes, they had released "Doolittle" in a special 25th-anniversary edition, which rekindled interest in their early work. Performing “Cactus” and “Is She Weird,” the band showcased their unique blend of punk rock energy and surreal lyrics, capturing the audience's attention with their distinct style. Interestingly, this concert was part of a broader effort to engage both legacy fans and a new generation, proving that their music still resonates deeply. The enthusiasm of the crowd at that show perfectly reflected the band's enduring appeal—certainly, it was a night where nostalgia met the thrill of live performance, a hallmark of their artistry.
