Return of the Fat Man

Twenty-two tracks of high-voltage live energy. A raw, unpolished document of the band's signature loud-quiet-loud dynamics and surreal surf-punk grit.

1998 · Black Pearl (10)

A frantic, high-tension explosion of surrealist energy and melodic grit.

Moments Worth Listening For

The transition from the eerie bassline of Hey into the jagged, feedback-drenched guitar solo.

The sheer vocal shredding during the climax of Tame that pushes the limits of the microphone.

The haunting, melodic vocal harmonies between Black Francis and Kim Deal on Where Is My Mind?.
