Pitchfork: Pixies Plan New Record!
One of my all time favorite bands is planning to make a new record. My last ever concert with Boghandle was a support gig for the Pixies in Copenhagen at Pumpehuset in June 1989.

Pixies Plan New Record!
Every other band breaks up, having no reason to exist anymore
We all pretty much saw it coming, but today at last arrives word from Frank Black himself. According to NME.com, the reunited Pixies hope to one-up 2004’s lackluster ‘Bam Thwok’ single and begin work on a brand new album in the coming year.‘Since we got back together we’ve played almost everywhere we can,’ explained Black to the NME website. ‘I know we like playing and everyone likes touring together, so to keep doing that and not record anything is kind of like being a county fair band. We don’t want to do that, so the only thing we can do is become a vital band again.
‘So it’s just a matter of doing it, I guess.’
Black also revealed that a new Pixies disc is no deal without bassist Kim Deal: ‘We’re rehearsing in January, if we can persuade Kim to come out of her house. We offered to go to her but we figured if we book the rehearsals she’ll show up.’
So there you have it”
