just curious what others think. If Frank is not going to be the one singing, I'm out for an all Deal situashone. I mean, I like when she sings every once in a while like on Bam Thwok it was cool. But, not all the time. That would be like sitting Earl Campbell on the bench to let OJ run. Out.

Yes! Why not? Don't you want to know what a new Pixie record would sound like?

I like the Breeders and The Amps so there'd be no complaints from me.

I like Breeders and Amps, but Pixies is Frank's band and therefore I'd prefer the singing to be done by Frank. I'm not really a fan of the Kim Deal Pixies tunes (I like them but not nearly as much as Franks songs). New Pixies album(s) YES, some Kim songs YES, mostly Frank songs (YES), Kim and Frank singing together (Fuck YES).

| I'm sure Frank wouldn't resist a sing along. I can't imagine a Pixie record without his voice. |

Yes.
And I'm sort of ashamed to say that I want the Sicilian to be over and done with so that I can start anticipating a new Pixies album properly. This is the lowest point a FB fan can reach, I guess, but I've now crossed that line.
I'm just excited to hear what a Pixies song sounds like (to the four of them) after all these years. What Frank's creative muse can come up with, outside the (not so) recent alt-country style. And he knows it'll have to be fantastic, so they'll hopefully not rush anything. |

We don't know much about it yet. I hope the 5 outtakes from Honeycomb will be there (esp. Kiss My Ring!), and the title comes from a "cover" of Gabriel Faure's Sicilienne.

It'd be interesting to say the least,the two songs we've seen so far in my opinion have been restricted creatively,one having to have a poppy feel to it(as it was originally to be on the Shrek soundtrack but not "edgy" enough; how ironic) and the other being a cover.
And with spirits beings high,and there being no immediate pressure on them,they can churn tunes out in their own time,so I'd be hoping for something leaning more towards SR/COP.
And a quick afterthought,the two main creative influences within the band(Frank n Kim), their music has gone in two seperate directions,it'd be mighty tasty to see what happened if it was all brought together(Imagine something along the lines of the Big Bang)

I would prefer Frank to do most of the lead vocals, as big a Kim fanatic as I am. I love her backing vocals anyway.
You just gotta have Frank's scream. And it has to be his scream, not his croon.
Don't believe the type!

If they are smart that's exactly what they'll do and leave the laid-back crooning to solo projects such as Honeycomb.

| I wouldn't be happy if Kim Deal sings a lot on an new Pixies album. The same if she wrote lots of songs for it. I think Frank Black is the main composer of the Pixies, not Kim Deal. And I think exactly the same about the singing... Both singing, yes, Frank alone, yes, but Kim Deal singing alone on several tracks, I'm not convinced. |

Yeah, and there has to be a C#m in there too. Why go forwards when it's 'smart' to go backwards.
But do you really think they'll slip back into quiet loud distortion filled 2 minute wonders?
wow the expectations already begun. You getting this Frank? This is what we want.
Whatever it could be possibly sound like, you know it's gonna be good. It's the Pixies.

Yeah, 17 years ago. And Frank's the one who's been writing the 'crooners'.
Maybe it's gonna be Kim's input that brings back the sound that's wanted. |

Yeah, i've written a song that comprises only of C#m.
You want the tab? Can't give you the melody here, but see what you think:
verse: C#m
bridge: C#m
chorus: C#m
verse: C#m
(repeat chorus)
middle 8: C#m
chorus: C#m |

| At first I was hesitant to hear more Pixies. But after seeing them live three times I am so much more confident that they'd write a bunch of kick ass songs! GOnna be fun to hear, thats for sure! |

I'm not sure if i want to hear a new Pixies album but I do know that I'd be disappointed if kim did the majority of the singing.

Wait... Am I dreaming or did Mike and Kathryn really AGREE on something? I think that's the first time, isn't it?

The Pixies will stay the Pixies.
Frank will wright and sing most songs. There will be chorus by Kim as usual but maybe higher in the mix than it was on Trompe le Monde. There will probably be ONE song written BY or FOR her, à la Into the White, and possibly a co-written song à la Silver. An unusual cover song is likely to appear.
Don't worry!

On the album,
I would actually prefer both Frank and Kim on vocals,
while Joey continously pushes buttons on this device:

So.. about this C#m talk.
Are you referring to Bam Thwok(sp?) or just writing songs in general? |

I'm inclined to think a new Pixies album would be good, regardless of what they do. Sure, it might not be good, but since all of what they've done in the past has been so great, I'm willing to give them the benefit of the doubt. And that's even if Frank croons, or Kim sings lead on every song, or they actually do the album of waltzes Frank jokes about.
For what it's worth, I'm not really familiar with the Breeders or the Amps.

Do we really want a new Pixies CD?
