Pixies - Debaser Live Performance at Music Box, Hollywood
Ah, the Pixies—those sonic sorcerers who've etched their name in the annals of indie rock! So, let’s set the scene for November 19, 2011, when they graced the Music Box in Hollywood. By this time, the band was two years into their reunion tour, which kicked off in 2004 after a nearly 12-year hiatus. They were riding high on the nostalgia wave, but they weren’t just leaning on old hits; they introduced fresh energy into their classic catalog, including tracks from their iconic album *Doolittle*. Released back in 1989, *Doolittle* was such a pivotal moment for them, becoming a cornerstone of alternative rock. In fact, during the live recording of "Debaser," you could feel that reverberation of brilliance in the air—a crowd electric with excitement, reliving those golden years. It's wild to think that songs written more than two decades earlier continued to resonate so deeply, isn’t it? That’s the magic of the Pixies; they can make old feel new!
