Bossanova is the third studio album by the Pixies, released in 1990 on 4AD in the United Kingdom and Elektra Records in the United States. Coming off the critical success of Doolittle, the band pushed their sound in a surf-tinged, otherworldly direction that set it apart from anything else in the alternative rock landscape at the time. It remains one of the most distinctive entries in the Pixies' celebrated catalog.
The album is a wild, eclectic ride through topics as varied as alien encounters, government conspiracy, the immigrant experience, and the death of stars — all delivered with the Pixies' signature blend of tension and release. Frank Black, Kim Deal, David Lovering, and Joey Santiago craft a sound that moves effortlessly between phantasmagoric dreamscapes and driving, riff-heavy rock, making Bossanova a deeply rewarding listen from start to finish.
