Pixies

By June 2004, the Pixies had been enjoying a resurgence since their reunion in 2004, following an extended hiatus that lasted about a decade. They had just released their first album in over a decade, "Indie Cindy," in 2014, and were working towards recapturing the raw energy that defined their earlier classics. However, during the live performance captured at the Southside Festival, they were still riding the wave of nostalgia and excitement that came with their reunion tours. Performing "Where Is My Mind?"—a song that consistently evokes a specific emotional landscape—showcased their ability to connect deeply with fans, both new and old. Interestingly, this track has an experimental charm that reflects the band's unique sound, combining elements of punk, surf rock, and surreal lyrics. It's fascinating how this performance in Geneva, underscored by the band's legendary live intensity, highlights their ability to translate studio magic to the stage. It feels like a reminder of how music can transcend time, doesn't it?
