Bossanova

Bossanova

Bossanova is the third studio album by Pixies. 1990 was a particularly fertile time for the band with Kim Deal also having success with The Breeders, who released their debut album Pod just a few months prior.

Featuring the singles ā€˜Allison’ (a tribute to jazz and blues pianist Mose Allison), ā€˜Dig For Fire’ and ā€˜Velouria’, plus the first cover to feature on one of their albums ā€˜Cecilia Ann’ (originally by The Surftones), Bossanova showed a less primal side to the band, with surf and space rock rising to the fore. Lyrically, Black Francis is even more cryptic with a recurring sci-fi theme running throughout, which in turn influenced Vaughan Oliver’s classic planet design for the sleeve.
