Mother Mother's lead singer, Ryan, met Joey at a bar and Joey played new & unreleased Pixies songs for him on a headset. Not sure if this story is referring to Zombies or to an earlier album. It's amusing that Joey walks around with new Pixies music in his pocket at the ready.

Ryan tells the story here: https://youtu.be/05An5P_Yaso?t=347

Here's Mother Mother covering Cactus and Gouge Away. Ryan plays an interesting solo during Gouge Away: https://youtu.be/EOYxc5tS8fM?t=298

Nice find! Presumably it was Zombies since they should only be beginning their next round of sessions with Tom in the UK right around now since the tour just wrapped up in Ireland.

mother mother are really cool. good canadian band!
i saw them one time at a festival and was surprised when they played two pixies covers (cactus and gouge, same as the other show posted above).
seemed odd to take up a fairly short time slot with two songs that are covers.
but i loved it! they do a great job on them and clearly are very passionate pixies fans.

i got the impression from listening to that video clip that joey playing him those unreleased songs wasn't recently, since he said "i met the guitarist at a bar ONCE..."
could be wrong but i'm thinking it isn't the currently unreleased songs he heard
