LOUD QUIET LOUD : A FILM ABOUT THE PIXIES (2006)

STEVEN CANTORMATTHEW GALKIN

Plot

When the genius that was ‘the Pixies' broke up in 1992, their fans were shocked and dismayed. When they reunited in 2004, even the cynics were secretly delighted. loudQUIETloud follows the rehearsals and the warm up shows for the full-fledged, sold out reunion tour. It also catalogs, in the cinema verite style of the Rolling Stones' "Gimme Shelter" and Bob Dylan's "Don't Look Back", the less glamorous side of the touring band lifestyle, getting as close to this enigmatic act as anyone is ever likely to get. LoudQUIETloud captures the Pixies, their families and their fans in a slice of rock n' roll re-birth.
