day 80: Wave of Mutilation

Wave of Mutilation, by the Pixies.

Once again, this song is from the Pump Up The Volume soundtrack that absolutely planted itself in my brain. The “UK Surf” mix, of course. This is definitely one of those songs where I heard the remix first, and the original always irritates me by not having the same vibe. (Big Day Coming by Yo La Tengo does this in reverse; I like the heavy one, and the slow one never drops the beat, it just leaves me waiting.)

A little annoyed with myself that I didn’t let the drums start, but I tried to get the vibe close enough. That’s what I get for adding the drums toward the end of the process, natch. This was fun.
