Steve Albini produjo este disco y, como es de esperarse, la batería tiene un lugar prominente en el sonido del disco. Otro elemento que tiene una presencia fuerte es la dinámica loud-quiet-loud que después popularizarían grupos como Nirvana.
Description:
Surfer Rosa is the first full-length album by the American alternative rock band Pixies, released in March 1988 on the British independent record label 4AD. The album's unusual and offbeat subject matter includes references to mutilation and voyeurism; this is augmented by experimental recording, low-fidelity production and a unique drum sound.
