| The guitar sounds quite Pixies-like but the vocals have me questioning it? I must admit it does sound like he's saying 'Blue eyed Hexe' (A suspected new Pixies title) at the end. |

Does sound like "battle of the blue eyed h...."
Those are some hair band sounding vocals though.
At least things seem to be picking up a bit. |

| Actually really looking forward to hearing it. I agree with IBreed in that it sounds more like the song "rock music" than hair metal. |

Try hitting F11 and then moving the cursor about in the top left corner. The mute/unmute option should appear then.
I'm very curious to hear this song in full. BF in screaming mode (and full-on fucking screaming) almost arouses me. |

Doesn't work for me either and I un-muted it. :-( Is it just a picture with sound? Or does it do something else? I hate all this social media BS.

Not sure why you guys are having problems, but then again I'm no IT guy. What I CAN tell you is that if that ain't a hoax, that puppy has some of the most ripping Black Francis vocals laid down since the last few seconds of Tame.
Dying to hear this album. And it better be an album. otherwise... I might.. Just... er um ... write stuff on this board like the rest of you. Such is the life of an uberfan. This place is like a Star Trek convention for Charles.
And I love it.

Hell yes, I'm dying to hear more. I love the vines and tweets, giving possible insight and clues we just don't understand yet. |

IMO Frank's Rock Music vocals were super-intense without treading into hair metal territory. This... this sounds like it might be crossing that line. May sound entirely different in its full context, though.

Hmmm yeah I'm definitely not hearing any hair metal overtones. It sounds like the exact sort of classic Black Francis scream that I for one have been waiting to hear for awhile on new material. Just my opinion of course.
FWIW I always felt that a staple of hair metal singing was heaping amounts of vibrato with an actual pitch being sung. This has neither. It's just a flat out scream.

from this short clip, Blue Eyed Hexe to my ears sounds similar to Bagboy (drum production, arid guitars), which is good because I feared the album would be heterogeneous, or lack unity (this is of course too early to tell)
The screaming is rather far from classic Pixies rendering. It almost has an Iron Maiden quality to it. Don't know if I like it.
Will be fun to hear if Um Chagga Lagga comes out first, or this one.

I hope it's the Pixies. For the five seconds that we hear it, it rocks.
Also, Frank has good teeth. |

| Sounds like classic Pixies with Trompe Le Monde production. Can't wait to hear the whole song, and suprised none of the album has been leaked yet. I kinda like the drip feeding of new tunes, makes you savour each new song or snippet that little bit more. I'm guessing once the tour kicks off we'll have every new tune posted on youtube 5 minutes after the fact. |

The great thing to me about ‘Rock Music’’s vocals is that it’s just one big ball of energy and manic screaming in under two minutes.
I remember Transmarine saying something about almost every song reaching/surpassing the 4:30 mark? I wonder how they’ll pull this one off.
This dripping of snippets and songs/videos every few week without concrete news regarding the whole bag recorded songs is pure torture. It’ll probably last until the beginning of the tour (or the end of it... fuck), but man, does it hurt.
Ah! For years, Frank didn’t scream like he used to. Now, he’s screaming more and harder than he used to... Got to love it. |

I think it someone reported on here that some songs are around the four minute mark but others are traditionally shorter. As for the screaming it's damn impressive, the sounds theat emerge.
I saw him bellow the slow version of Six-Sixty and it was frightening. His face was red and slick with sweat, his eyes locked into the distance and his neck throbbing as if it would burst; he was a volcano of sound. |

Didn't you claim to have heard the whole album already? |

Thoughts on IF the Pixies record a new album...
