What the fuck did I just listen to?

And the Kim Deal song sounds like it belongs at some Bible retreat sung around a camp fire.

This is gonna be a painful 2014.

Didn't buy EP-1, thought it was a bit pricey but it seems to command a tasty price on Ebay these days. EP-2 might be a decent investment unless they've already gone.

Pixies' first album since 1991 sounds like it could have easily have followed Trompe Le Monde – and that's the whole problem

So is Kim Deal with them or not on the tour? They are even coming here this summer, I might catch them if she is with them.

Kim Deal is no longer a Pixie

Well in that case I won't bother.

I like What Goes Boom and Ring the Bell and that's about it. I loved the fact that Frank Black was a weirdo no matter what genre he was writing in. This sounds pretty bland for the most part. Nothing really offensive (apart from Black Francis rapping) but very little stands out.

Thank God for Greg Cartwright.

I like Magdalena 318.

He needs to come round and see your windows, they score on both counts. :wink:
