... and the Courtney Black Rumour strikes again!
http://www.20minutes.fr/journal/culture/article.php?ida=55973
"Frank Black en solo, bien entouré
Honeycomb, le nouvel album de Frank Black, est une vraie surprise. Roots et apaisé, on n’y retrouve pas le son saturé des Pixies, groupe mythique du chanteur et musicien américain. Les nouvelles chansons sonnent comme des standards avec leurs mélodies solides et rétro et leurs influences soul, country ou rock classique. Normal : elles ont été enregistrées avec des pointures des légendaires studios Stax. Mais cette perfection n’empêche pas l’émotion, maniée ici avec finesse par un musicien évoquant parfois Neil Young, comme sur un duo charmant avec Courtney Love. On le retrouvera avec les Pixies le 25 août au festival Rock en Seine à Saint-Cloud (92). I. Ch."
"Frank Black solo, in good company
Honeycomb, the new album by Frank Black, is a real surprise. Rootsy and quiet, it doesn't feature the saturated sound of the Pixies, the mythical band of the American singer and musician. The new songs sound like standards with their solid, old-fashioned melodies, influenced by soul, country or classic rock. No surprise there: they were recorded with hotshots from the legendary Stax studios. But this perfection doesn't prevent emotion, finely crafted by a musician sometimes reminiscent of Neil Young, as showed on a charming duo with Courtney Love. We'll see him again with the Pixies on August 25th a the Rock En Seine festival, in Saint-Cloud."

This Courtney Love bullshit has got to stop.
Can one of you French fb.netters set the record straight with this publication?

Hey, I did it with Les Inrocks (who'd published the "news" on their website), was that ever a waste of time (and a slightly nerdy thing to do). They plainly ignored me - left the item on the site - and then they published the article Denis posted, acknowledging Frank's denial. Sheesh. Better late than never, I guess. Still way better than writing it's Courtney after hearing the album! (Assuming they did...)
Anyway, my point is, you just can't educate them.
As Billy O'Connell once wisely said, you gotta take the bad with the good.

That's so great that you guys tried, though. I am sure Frank would appreciate that and perhaps he will read this and know of it...
