Pixies bracket: Morning Bell (5) v You Never Wash Up (12)

"Morning Bell"
Kid A
(5)

"It's very, very violent. Extremely violent," according to Thom Yorke. Also, it's either about divorce, King Solomon, ghosts or something else. I can say that the pliable Rhodes combined with the hurried drum fills give this song a pacing that feels like endless freeway driving.

VS

"You Never Wash Up After Yourself"
My Iron Lung
(12)

Johnny Greenwood unleashes in inner Eddie Hazel while Thom wonders aloud if the band is getting to comfortable.
