Complete B-Sides: 1988-97 (Remastered)
Pixies
4AD
Released 25 years after its original CD-only debut, Complete B-Sides: 1988-97 marks the first time Pixies' definitive collection of non-album tracks has been officially pressed on vinyl — and it arrives sounding better than ever. Remastered from the original analogue tapes by Kevin Vanbergen, whose work completes an extensive remastering of the band's entire catalogue, the compilation gathers all 19 b-sides from the band's legendary 4AD era (1988-1991). As Pitchfork noted in their glowing 9.6 review of the original release, the Pixies were the "blinding visionaries of the 80s" — and virtually everything they touched was groundbreaking.
With the original tracklisting fitting neatly across three sides of vinyl, a fourth side of bonus live tracks has been added — six tracks drawn from later Pixies single releases including the 1997 Debaser re-release. New artwork by longtime collaborator Chris Bigg (v23) uses previously shelved photographs from Simon Larbalestier's archive, created in tandem with the band's recent Live at the BBC reissue to honour their late visual director Vaughan Oliver. Part of the band's 40th anniversary celebrations. Available on standard Black vinyl or Indies Exclusive Crystal Clear vinyl. Out 26th June 2026 on 4AD.
