ep = extended play
i.e. not a single, not an album.
"Idiot" is just her sig. |

EPs generally have more songs than singles, which are typically the "A" side (the actual single, in this case, Cpt. Pasty) and one or more "B" sides (unreleased tracks, album tracks, live versions, etc). An EP would typically have all new material (and, in this case, the LP version of Cpt. Pasty). So I was excited for new Frank songs.

Hopefully will have some quality B-sides on there. Captain Pasty is a good choice for a single, I reckon. I wonder if there'll be anymore off Bluefinger.

When it comes to CD singles, the differences between singles and EPs can blurred sometimes. I've seen CD "singles" have 5 or 6 tracks on them.
However, in the UK, I think the chart rules there (as of 6, 7 years ago) say that singles can have no more than 2 b-sides so this will likely be a 3-track CD. More a single than an EP.
So THIS IS NOT AN EP, DENIS. |

Sorry... :( I thought everyone would get excited over this and I fucked it all up cause I wrote "EP" instead of "single"... And now I can't edit my post and everyone's mad at me... I think I'll just curl up and die in a pool of my own tears. Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!
Seriously... I'd bet on the b-sides being the covers of Rockafeller Skank and History Song. Not my fave covers by Frank but I wouldn't be surprised.

Does anybody knows if there were some remix or overdubbs of Pasty since the leaked Bluefinger version? I never understood why Frank's voice sounds so exausted on this song, like he's singing this just after waking up. |

I think it could be Frank recording the vocals live, save for a couple of overdubs. |

Why's that, because they'll pull it before release?
I can get to it through vilainde's link, but I can't seem to be able to search for it on the site. Strange. How on earth did he find it? |

"I'm French" would have been a better answer.
There's a perfect explanation for the shit that I've been in. As soon as I find out, I'll let you know. |

I'd love to know what's going on with this. Meanwhile some music webzine posted a (clueless but good) review for Captain Pasty:
http://www.digitalspy.co.uk/music/a67539/black-francis-captain-pasty.html
<<Black Francis: 'Captain Pasty' Released on Monday, August 6 2007 By Alex Fletcher
3/5 stars
Charles Thompson doesn't like to make things simple. Whether he fancies being called Frank Black, Black Francis, Frank Black and The Catholics or the plain old lead singer with The Pixies, he never seems quite content playing by the conventional rules of music marketing. While many die-hards will have been keeping their fingers crossed for yet further Pixies material after the re-union tour, Black has decided to delay their musical return by focusing on his solo album Bluefinger. 'Captain Pasty', released on August 6, is the first track off the album and it sticks to the usual Black formula of screaming vocals and clattering guitars.
While there is a slight tinge of disappointment that the track is not about a man's passion for the Ginster's pasty selection, anyone familiar with Black's material, or The Pixies' for that matter, should find themselves head-banging in approval to this thrash-along rock-out. At just over two minutes long, the track has little time for nuance or subtlety, with Black's sneering, snotty voice carrying a filthy, clunky guitar track to an abrupt, snap conclusion. The musical equivalent of being walloped in the face by a frying pan, offering enjoyment to those who seek their musical thrills in the extreme. >>

So it seems the official release date is now August 27th, but I still have no clue about the b-sides...

Uh. According to..? The link still says 7th August, and it's not searchable on the site. Looks cancelled to me. |

Black Francis - Captain Pasty (Cooking Vinyl) UK release date: 27 August 2007
Captain Pasty is an early offering from the former Pixies frontman's forthcoming new album Bluefinger, due out in September and dedicated to Dutch modern artist/musician Herman Brood. On first listen it heralds a return to the best days of the Pixies. Gone are the introspective, country acoustics - which perhaps explains the name reversal, after using Frank Black as his more usual nom de guerre these days.
While this is hardly unwelcome it does, inevitably, mean that it's a step backwards, to post-punk growling and furious guitars which, while he certainly does better than most, he does no better here than he's done countless times before.
As a taster of what's to come, it's both tantalising and infuriating. He's made so many leaps and bounds in the past decade that it would be a shame for him to stop evolving. Except of course that if he did, short, sharp post-punk shocks like this would be a very small price to pay.

I certainly don't agree. Apart from vague ressemblance in sound, melodies and musical signature with previous work he's done before, BF is in a different class, a class of it's own.
