4AD Records will commemorate the 30th anniversary of the Pixies’ debut full-length Surfer Rosa next month with a dual reissue of that album and its 1987 predecessor, the eight-song mini-album Come On Pilgrim, that will include a bonus live set from 1986.
Titled Come On Pilgrim… It’s Surfer Rosa, the reissue will come in 3CD and 3LP packages, plus a limited-edition deluxe 3LP box set with clear vinyl and a clothbound hardbook with lyric booklet and art book. The CD and standard vinyl reissues are out Sept. 28, with the deluxe vinyl set due “later in 2018.”
All three can be pre-ordered now via 4AD.
The set is packaged in new artwork “reimainged” by original designer Vaughan Oliver, and it includes the bonus disc Live From the Fallout Shelter, a 15-song live set broadcast in 1986 by WJUL-FM in Lowell, Mass. The CD version also includes an interview appended to the live disc.
The Pixies currently are on tour in the U.S. with Weezer and Sleigh Bells — they play in the Salt Lake City area tonight — and will perform a run of previously announced Come On Pilgrim… It’s Surfer Rosa shows at London’s Roundhouse in late October and early November.
Below, check out the full tracklist, product shots and a short video teaser.
