In a word: YES. The Pixies are fucking seminal. If you liked alternative music at all, you really have to give props to the Pixies.

I don't understand how that would work? Would it just be the taste of the powder or something..

Ok, because it seems that this board is low on Pixies awareness, I will try to help out. They were basically one of the most influential rock bands of the late-80s/early-90s. Kurt Cobain admitted dozens of times that he was trying bite their sound. They wrote hummable songs about sadistic shit, crazy band. Here are some of their classic songs:

Debaser
Gouge Away
Here Comes Your Man
...oh fuck it, everything from Doolittle and Surfer Rosa is essential. Listen to the Pixies damnit!

Dont forget Alec Eiffel

I haven't heard that version, but the Promise Ring does a horrible cover it. They make it so bland. But that's what they do best.
