Pixies - Gigantic Live Performance at Corona Capital Festival in Mexico City
In November 2010, during their performance at the Corona Capital festival in Mexico City, the Pixies were riding a wave of renewed popularity after a long hiatus. By this time, they had already released a string of impactful albums, with "Doolittle" being one of their most acclaimed efforts from 1989. This album solidified their unique blend of punk rock, surf sounds, and surreal lyrics, making them a cornerstone of alternative rock. The live recording of "Gigantic" from this festival is particularly noteworthy—it's a classic Pixies track showcasing their signature sound that influenced countless bands in the '90s and beyond. Interestingly, by 2010, the band had reunited and embarked on a series of tours, even teasing new music later on. The energy captured in this performance is a testament to their enduring appeal and the way their music continues to resonate with both longtime fans and new audiences alike.
