I can't stand these hypocrites.

When Frank went solo they were like, "Oooh that's crap, it's not COOL, it's not the PIXIES, whom we all should love and worship now that they are dead. Bring back the Pixies, I don't want to hear what Frank Black has to say now."

Now he brings back the Pixies and they say, "What a pity, he's doing it for the money, the Pixies have stopped innovating, that's NOT cool. Besides, look, he's fat!"

Then he does try to innovate with the Pale Boys thing and they go, "It's pathetic, makes us want to go back to the Pixies."

Note this: "Auparavant, il avait écoulé tout ce qu'il pouvait : best of, live, faces B (C, D...), coffret, inédits, démos... "

("Prior to that, he'd peddled all he could: best of, live, B-sides, C-sides, D-sides, box set, unreleased tracks, demos...")

Uh, I'd love to see the box set, Dumbo. We're talking PIXIES here, not Nirvana.


"Just kill the one with the sword first."
"Ah," Reagan says, raising his waxed and penciled eyebrows, and cocking his pompadour in Shaftoe's direction. "Smarrrt--you target them because they're the officers, right?"
"No, fuckhead!" Shaftoe yells. "You kill 'em because they've got fucking swords! You ever had anyone running at you waving a fucking sword?"

That has to be the worst review I've read. I was about to post it too.

Libé? Même mon derrière n'en veut plus...

[edit] Liberation? Even my ass can't stand it anymore.

Well, I'd say the issue isn't whether they still are revolutionaries, but whether they have their own taste in music (preferably good, but hey, let's not ask too much too soon) or if they blindly whorship whatever hoverhyped bunch of strumming mongoloids is shoved their way by pushy PR assistants.

I have my opinions about which is the biggest sin :)

That said, they gave the new Pinback album a good review.

Pinback are definitely one of the most underrated bands. Their music is really subtle and original.

Pinback are touring the US - they're in California at the moment. And they play Japan in January! You can see recent posts by Noexx (although only tour dates and such) on Pinback's Yahoo group. You can also see him (well, I suppose so, it's not like I actually know him) on Pinback's new video, AFK.

LUTINS, comment tu sais quel goût ça a ?...

Maybe he means "Cough cool".

I think I need a shorter sig.
