Good point. I was just thinking to myself there, why hasn't Joey done more stuff with other people asides from with Frank and his own solo projects? i think heis a pretty good guitarist. Is he? Or is he just a second lead/synth to back up Frank? Maybe he just has a sound but can't really do much more. There was a rumour the Pixies might be also getting into some film soundtrack more recently + films can sometimes take many years to complete for all manner of reasons, triple equilateral triangular dot character maybe all this speculation if you can call it that is leading up to some soundtrack or involvement with an upcoming film score in some way? Just some thoughts



Joey is a hugely talented guitar player and musician in his own right. Joey has been hugely influential in guitar playing and has a very distinctive sound quite difficult to replicate. The man quite simply is a God. I worship at his alter. He is certainly no one trick pony.

Has anyone had a good listen to Joey's soundtrack work? Is it distinctively Joey? Now I'm curious about it cos I pretty much agree with Sam.

Matto, did Joey play with the Residents at some stage?

Trobi - i have heard some bits from the TV series weeds that he did and that was cool and kind of funky but its incidental background music secondary to the Visuals. The instrumental version of bullet he did with FB for the crime and punishment film ( think) is a thing of great beauty. I love the guitar work there. I remember reading as well about when Dave Philips joined the Catholics he was in awe of Joey and his playing on DW. Dave Philips seemed like an outstanding player to me in his own right.

'Lonely Cholo' came on shuffle the other day and I have to say it increased my excitement for the possible new Pixies album tenfold. It took me a while to place the song: at first I wondered if it was some 60s or 70s band like Focus but then I copped on it was the Everybody. Some great guitarwork and the keyboards are cathcy as fuck. So yes, it's not the Pixies coming back together to record that's getting me excited, but the fact that Joey and BF will be reunited to make a full album. I'd love it if they actually took some of the riffs and arrangements from Avatar and allowed BF to lay vocals over them.

I know there's been no mention of an album but from what I've read on the forum Frank, Joey and Kim have been in Wales of all places but no mention of Dave so far(?). I'm not on Facebook and my little head has got itself wrapped up thinking this could possibly be Dave's response when questioned about recent Pixie activity.

"No one told me!". Hmm. What came before? Dave uploads photo of himself cooking in the kitchen. Facebooker says "Green pasta's made from people, Dave."

"No one told me!"

I understand David's reply on Facebook as follows:
At 2:02, someome comments on Joey's pic by Charles "New Pixies album in the works!!!"
Then at 2:28, David posts (quite jokingly to me)" No one told me!"
Later someone says "Drummers. Always the last to know." :)

By the way, this is definitely taking place in Rockfield Studios, Wales. Same room, ceiling, monitors and console as in a picture on Rockfield website.

If Jeremy Dubs played the drums on the demos earlier this year, I wonder if David is already in Wales or will record later (maybe with Kim?)

There was a great picture on Facebook of Joey with a guitar by the mixing desk, but it's gone now.

You mean this one? Now, who has the Kim photo? I haven't seen that one.



Here's a picture of Rockfield Studios mixing board from their website. As you can see, it's the same board Joey is sitting in front of.

Your photo of Rockfield is the Coach House (see stone wall) + mixing desks differs
The photo with Joey was taken at the Quadrangle
See http://www.rockfieldmusicgroup.com/gallery_preview.asp?id=64
Same mixing desk, same monitors, same ceiling, and you see the sofa from where a sitting BF took the pic

Another recent pic of Joe. Yup, Joe and Charles are in the UK. New Frank Black, or new Pixies? Anyone have recent photos of Kim or Dave in the UK? That would settle it.

BTW, anyone from the UK know where this is?

that guy over Joe's left shoulder looks so goddamned british.

there's no way a new pixies album would suck.

and there's no way they're making a new album. that would be impossible to keep under wraps, especially with the flaunting of the Joey pics.

Flaunting Joey's pics is nothing amazing by itself. Frank and Joey have worked together on and off since the Pixies broke up, so learning that the two are working on something together would not raise any red flags.

Seeing a picture of Kim out there with them, on the other hand, that would probably upstage global warming or something (and no matter how good a "return to form" it is, a possible Pixies album will always face unreal expectations).

Even if I'm hoping that they really are making another Pixies album, for now I'm just glad to see that Frank seems to be taking his time with this album, and not just recording it in a week. Even if it's just another BF album, it'll probably be amazing.

Still, this thing that they're doing, with the polished demos, and the recordings in a fancy UK studio, just in terms of finantial stakes... has Frank ever done anything like this in his solo career?

Violet recently posted a picture on her Facebook wall of Kim in an English looking pub. The picture was taken down from Violet's Facebook thingy before I could see it. Maybe someone here saved this Kim photo, and will post it?

If you look to the right of that old dude next to Joe, you can see a hand lettered sign that reads: "Home Made Fresh Pies, 2 for £6".

"£" stands for pound, the unit of currency in the UK....although the UK is part of the EU, they retained their own currency and don't use the Euro.

Like I've stated before, I sure am curious to see this mysterious Kim photo.

That's Monmouth market in south Wales. I had a drink in the blue pub in the background a while ago (The Gate House). There were no pie-eating Pixies there that day afaik.

Yup. The Gate House, or is it the The Gate "ouse"? I'm guessing that when you drop the letter "H" it becomes Welch? So Chuckles and Joe are working on something in Wales, in a studio their old Pixies producer now calls home. This is interesting. Recently Thompson said that he could not make another Pixies album without Kim because, "the fans would stone me..". Kim said back in 2007, "There may be a new Pixies record, but I'm not going to be on it." This looks like a question for Intrade.

I lived in Great Malvern near there for a year, 2004 in fact to be precise. I took the train from there to London to see the Pixies on their reunion tour. It used to be really beautiful there before the north pole started melting and fucked up the weather. I rented a flat in a historic building there called Malvern House which had the most amazing views of the Severn, 30 minute walk to the Malvern peaks. I love it there, but they sacked me for refusing to use my mind to design weapons. This place I stayed in is an old hotel and used to be frequented by George Bernand Shaw who used to host plays in the nearby theatre. There was a photo of him in the doorway holding his pipe, I always regretted not taking a photo of myself standing in the doorway with my hash pipe while I was, didn't have a camera then.

First off, everyone knows that the national cuisine of the UK is not falafel, it's kebabs.

Second, that is not a picture of Kim, it's a picture of the sheep she molested.
