i was thinking.. it's a well known fact that the guy from Coldplay was a fan of the Pixies.. so, it's no stretch to think he's a big Frank Black fan too.

it's my personal theory that the song "Yellow" is an homage to Frank's first selt-titled album "Frank Black".. in the song, the color yellow serves as a metaphor for his undying love and inspiration (and, by extension, his musical inspiration), and he goes on and on about how it "was all yellow"..

it's just too coincidental not to be true.

Also inspired by self-titled? Catchy nonetheless. ;)

If he said "it was all yellow," he clearly couldn't be talking about the self-titled Frank Black album. If it was all yellow, we wouldn't have had this extensive and asinine debate over what color the record is.

I always really liked that song, though I never got around to checking out Surgery For Zebra. Are you a fan?

I'm certainly a fan of metal molly
although I never hears surgery for zebra
All I've got is a EP and their great second album 'The Golden Country'
I can highly recommend them.

Besides,
the site you mentioned, Chris,
doesn't have to second album in their discography, so I mailed them all the details of that one.
I presume it wasn't released worlwide

"I'll call myself Matt Foley and make posts about how I live in a van down by the river. No one will guess my hip cultural reference and then I'll make asswipe comments about people I've never associated with before."

Keep it up Matt. Enjoyed your feeble attempts so far, pussy.
