Motoroller sounded very very Frank

I like it. Kinda one-note but at least that note is rocking.



Seconded. I think it'll work well as a late-album-pick-me-up.

I'm also going to avoid it. I already know too much of this album.

I still see it as more of a Seven Fingers type song than a Trompe le Monde type song,

But I like it a lot

Yeah, I was thinking of Seven Fingers as well - maybe a mash of "I Sent Away" and something off TLM?

Great news about the upcoming recording session (I imagine it'll be shortly after this tour wraps up in Europe next week). I'm glad to see that he's getting into more of a groove of consistent recording after a decade-and-change of three year gaps between releases.

I was also going to write that the vocal delivery on Oysters reminds me of I Sent Away

OK I did end up listening in the car as Spotify popped it up and I was curious what my wife would think as she's been really into Teenager of the Year lately.

I definitely like it, but I wasn't blown away. I like that it has strange structure. Two verses and a long instrumental part in between?

Does anybody think Frank practicing the Teenager songs for the upcoming tour may have a songwriting effect on him for the next go round?

Don't know about that. Was he influenced by playing a Doolittle tour in 2009?
What about Bossa x Trompe this year?

https://www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/m0021wmn

It was BBC6 Huw Stephens All Points East Live show from Friday Aug 23. Charles' interview starts at 1:40:10

They play You're So Impatient after the interview, no Oyster Beds. so it's audio-spoiler free. Great little interview, the last little bit where Charles is talking about trying to hold the audience's hand and be all chatty and rock n roll showman-like was hilarious.

Oyster Beds is easily one of my favorite 2.0 songs. It just sounds like Pixies to me.

So last night in Galway, Ireland it looks like they played 5 songs off the new album: Vegas Suite, You're So Impatient, Chicken, Motoroller again, and they debuted Oyster Beds. Man I wish some video would surface of those last two in particular. https://www.setlist.fm/setlist/pixies/2024/galway-airport-galway-ireland-7bab3e20.html

Anyone going to the gig in Belfast tonight? Please record the new stuff if you do!

There's a video on Instagram of them rehearsing Motoroller. Sounds pleasant enough, reminds me of Neil Young in his Harvest or Comes A Time mode. Wouldn't be aching to hear it live though.

Was considering going for a stroll near the gig tonight but it'll probably lash with rain.

It's like their own original Winterlong indeed
Neil Young vibe all the way
Also heard some Abba in it!

Damn, those comps may be appealing to some but they bum me out. Too much FB in these last few albums for me.

I understand, but in the context of an album it could work
