Bossanova is the third studio album by American rock band Pixies. It was released in August 13, 1990 on the English independent record label 4AD in the United Kingdom and by Elektra Records in the United States. The album's sound, inspired by surf rock and space rock, complements its lyrical focus on outer space, which references subjects such as aliens and unidentified flying objects.

Minotaur (Pixies album). The contents include new artwork by the original Pixies designer Vaughan Oliver and photographer Simon Larbalestier.

The Pixies sent the tape out to every major label they could find and got rejected by every single one. However, Throwing Muses bandleader Kristin Hersh used this tape to convince her manager to get the Pixies signed to her label: Ivo Watts-Russell’s 4AD Records. Watts-Russell recieved the tape, hated it at first, but then saw that his girlfriend of the time – 4AD press secretary Deborah Edgeley – liked it, so he gave it another shot. Most of the remaining songs were re-recorded for later release – they’ve appeared on every album from Surfer Rosa to Trompe le Monde, but were never released in their original form until the spinART label reissued them in 2002.
