Pixies - Trompe le monde (180g Audiophile Reissue)

Released in 1991, Trompe le Monde is the Pixies’ fourth studio album, produced by Gil Norton. The record sees the band lean into heavier, more aggressive tones — with sci-fi-tinged lyrics (“Planet of Sound”), surf-rock guitar, and anthemic moments like their cover of “Head On.” The title, French for “fool the world,” is a clever play on phrases like trompe-l’œil.

This 180 g audiophile reissue (4AD / Elektra) delivers a deep and rich sound.
