Pixies Perform 'Monkey Gone to Heaven' Live at Revolution Live in Fort Lauderdale

Venue: Roseland Theater Location: Portland, Oregon, United States Date: November 30, 2017

In 2017, just before their live recording at the Roseland Theater in Portland, the Pixies released their album *Head Carrier*, marking their first studio album in over a decade since *Indie Cindy*. This album showcased a revitalized sound while maintaining their signature mix of raw emotion and artful chaos. Interestingly, this period was pivotal for the band as it signaled a comeback of sorts after their initial split in the early '90s and subsequent reunion. The 2018 live performance highlighted the band's depth, featuring tracks like "Monkey Gone to Heaven," which reflects their knack for blending whimsical lyrics with haunting melodies. Not only did this concert capture the essence of the Pixies' eclectic sound, but it also served as a celebration of their enduring influence in the alternative rock scene, resonating with both longtime fans and new listeners alike. It's a beautiful reminder of how music can evolve while staying true to its roots.
