Coinciding with the band’s 40th anniversary, Complete B Sides: 1988-97 by Pixies has been remastered and is being reissued 25 years after its initial release on CD. This will also mark the first time the release is pressed on vinyl. Collecting all the b-sides from the band’s classic 4AD-era, Complete B Sides contains some of the Pixies best “other” tracks including “Wave of Mutilation (UK Surf)”, “Into The White” and “The Thing”.

Originally released on CD in 2001, when the band were nearly a decade into a hiatus, Complete B Sides: 1988-97 featured all 19 non-single tracks from the band’s unbelievable run of 1988-1991 singles. To complete it, it concluded with the instrumental version of “Letter to Memphis”, which previously only appeared on the US version of the release of the Alec Eiffel maxi-single.

And as there is space for more music across four sides of vinyl, this updated version sees six live tracks added, culled from latter Pixies releases including 1997’s Debaser re-release.

This new vinyl edition works as a companion piece to the band’s recent Live at the BBC compilation where designer Chris Bigg (v23) has created striking new art, taking photos from Simon Larbalestier’s archive that were originally slated for use by the Pixies but later shelved. Both long-term collaborators with the band, they worked on both releases in tandem to remember and honour the band’s late-visual director, Vaughan Oliver.
