Is it 1989?
Quite.
Say, heard of these Nirvana fellows? They seem rather rad.

No doubt you do.
For me, Debaser is ultimately associated with 1989. That's the year I was born, and apparently, my grandmother was watching Un Chien Andalou that very same day.
And, of course, Doolittle actually came out in that year.  I can rarely mentally separate a song and the album it appears on.
In a related fashion, I have a distinct emotional attachment to each Pixies record, the best song on that record, and the year it came out. 1988 belongs to Surfer Rosa and "Gigantic". 1989 belongs to Doolittle and "Debaser" (COP/I've Been Tired, Bossanova/Dig for Fire, Trompe Le Monde/UMass in their respective years).
Plus, I enjoy the Nirvana reference more than, say, 'you lot heard of that new Public Enemy album with the outlandishly long title?' or any other throwback to the music of '88.

Interesting. I could certainly see how one could tire of Nirvana (frankly, Unplugged is the only album of theirs I still reguarly listen to), and PE approaches timelessness far more than do most rap artists.
But I will never tire of the Pixies. Poor you.

I still like In Utero and listen to it fairly regularly. Public Enemy I only have Fear Of A Black Planet but what a solid album that is.

In Utero is certainly a good album, but the band covered up Pennyroyal Tea with far too much screechiness. That song belongs in its acoustic state. Other than that though, it's pretty great.
It Takes a Nation of Millions...is certainly worth the purchase.

Interestingly, I still listen to Public Enemy but I've long since tired of Nirvana or Pixies.

How could you tire of the Pixies?

To be fair, Frank Black (or Black Francis, or Charles Michael Kittridge Thompson IV) is the only one of them who is fat in the truest sense of the word.  Kim has only put on some age pounds, and Joey and Dave are still thin.

However, Frank is the frontman, and he is quite fat, so he makes the rest of them look fat. 

Or maybe you meant "fat" in a metaphorical sense.

Show me.  I have no beef with fat.

I would go back in time and bone her. Now she's as big as a fucking house.

As for 1988/1989 music I still listen to...Pixies, yes, the songs I have from Nirvana's Bleach album, Nine Inch Nails' first album, but most importantly Straight Outta Compton by N.W.A.

So are they making a new album or what?

I can't tell if I want them to or not.

Indeed they are. Pitchfork's byline for one of their numerous announcements of the band's forthcoming album read, "every other band breaks up, having no reason to exist anymore".
Pitchfork is easy to mock, but their masturbatory style can still provoke my giggles.

She isn't fat. She is phat.

No, seriously. I saw her on Austin City Limits two years ago or so. She sang 'In Heaven (Lady In The Radiator Song)' instead of Frank Black and I was all like "hort. soooo hort."
