Pixies: Gouge Away Live Performance at NorVa in Norfolk
On May 13, 2015, when Pixies delivered an electrifying performance of "Gouge Away" at The NorVa in Norfolk, they were riding the wave of a remarkable comeback. This live recording came a little over a year after the release of their album "Indie Cindy," which debuted in April 2014, marking their first full-length studio album in over two decades. The energy from this performance reflected the band's revitalized spirit and evolution, merging their signature alt-rock sound with fresh material, appealing to longtime fans and newcomers alike. Interestingly, "Gouge Away," a track from the iconic 1989 album "Doolittle," showcases their unique blend of frenetic energy and emotional depth, a hallmark of their style. It’s a testament to how the Pixies have not only maintained their artistic integrity but also continued to resonate deeply with audiences, proving that great music never really ages.
