Here is the Pixies album Doolittle as an instrumental album. There are still some of Kim's backing vocals present on some of the tracks, but mostly it's pure instrumental. Enjoy. Links for individual tracks in the comments.

Thank you! This is very important work you are doing and much appreciated. Will be relevant long after we are all gone. If you can do instrumental versions of the other four albums the Pixies released or any Frank & The Catholics as well it would be epic!

+The Average RU-vid User Sorry, it can't be done. Doolittle is the only one that can be done like this, though I believe The Sad Punk might also be do-able, but I've never seen it myself.
Yep - I mixed it this way as I was experimenting and wanted it to sound as rough and dirty as possible. So gritty is another way of describing the sound I was going for.
When compared to how Surfer Rosa sounds, Doolittle is definitely "smoother". From memory, I essentially just turned up the guitars and bass a bit more I think. Yep, it does distort a bit at various times, but it just sounds meaner, and I like it too.
It's very badly balanced in some places got to admit, there are different instrumental mixes out there of all these songs that sound much better. The clipping here is distracting, the bass is bad and it's in mono!
Pretty sure it comes from the video game Rock Band, the company had to get the stems from the band for a few songs I think and they were hidden somewhere in the files?
There's a much better instrumental mix of the whole album out there. This sounds like just the same mix but in mono, with lots of signal distortion/clipping and lacking bass, like its an mp3 download?
