Afghan Whigs get Soulful on Their New LP, Black Love
Dave Thompson, Rolling Stone, November 1995
JOE PIXIE IS PISSED. TWO FEET TALL, with a voice like a pubescent munchkin, he has been phoning around local fast-food joints trying to get a job. He never gets one. "It's because my voice is funny, isn't it?" he says. "But if you don't give me a job, I'm gonna crawl up your leg and kick your ass, motherfucker."
