Pixies / Complete B-Sides

Classic compilation expanded • First time on vinyl

Pixies have announced an expanded and remastered reissue of the 2001 compilation Complete B-Sides.

The original set collected the bonus tracks from the indie-rock pioneers’ classic first run of singles, with highlights including a raucous live cover of Laurel Near’s ‘In Heaven (Lady In The Radiator Song)’, originally taken from the 1988 single, ‘Gigantic’; the Kim Deal-sung ‘Into The White’ (B-side of ‘Here Comes Your Man’, 1989); and a fantastic cover of Neil Young’s ‘Winterlong’, first released on ‘Dig For Fire’ (1990).

Complete B-Sides: 1988-97 has been remastered from the original analogue tapes and includes an additional six live tracks. The first two – ‘Planet Of Sound’ and ‘Tame’ were originally released on the 1991 ‘Alec Empire’ single and were recorded at the band’s 26 July 1991 Brixton Academy gig. The remaining four bonus live tracks – ‘Debaser’, ‘The Holiday Song’. ‘Cactus’ and ‘Nimrod’s Son’ – were first released on the 1989 promo Pixies Live and were recorded on 10 August 1989 at Cabaret Metro, Chicago (they were also released as the 1997 EP Debaser: Live, released to promote the band’s Death To The Pixies compilation).

The reissue will be the first time Complete B-Sides has been reissued on vinyl – a 2LP set on either black or clear vinyl. It will also be available as a 2CD edition. And in keeping with the 2024 reissue of At The BBC, the artwork has been given a makeover, using photographs from the archive of Simon Larbalestier, the photographer responsible for the striking imagery on the band’s classic run of albums.

Complete B-Sides: 1988-97 will be released on 26 June via 4AD.
