on the day a new pixies song is released, here we are with bf. what a bizarre world it is this very moment.

also, agree 100% with the Fall comparison. it almost IS the Fall.

Love the song! It sounds kinda like a natural evolution from Trompe Le Monde, in my opinion. So... When's the album coming out?

That's pretty wild that that's not Kim singing. I've never heard Jeremy sing but I guess if he is a smaller stature guy then that makes sense.

However, I'm not really sure how Pixies fans are gonna take this. Personally, I'm a bit disappointed that the backing vocals are not only not Kim, but a guy who sounds (quite) a bit like Kim. Seems artistically weird, but that's just me...no offense intended.

Damn I just realized Dubs' last album is on amazon. I was waiting for The Bureau's online store to be up again.

Hopefully, people will listen to the music and then like it or dislike it based on that, rather than worry about stuff like the above. And I think that a lot of Pixies fans will. I'm seeing a lot of positive comments about this song.

I thought Frank just meant it was Dubs on bass? Surely that's Kim singing

There was something on Dub's facebook page that said he sang on it, but it seems the post has been deleted cause I can't find it.

I think it was a Jeremy Dubs interview where he mentioned his contributions to some BF demos last year - backing vocals, drums etc.

He plays drums with BF live sometimes. He is an insanely talented guy.

Oh wow, pretty great opening my emails and seeing that Pixies email. For a moment I was despairing and thought it was gonna be some sort of bag merchandise.

Liking the track - a lot. Opening kinda blew me away as it didn't really sound like Pixies (were they drum machines?) but then Santiago's guitar came crunching in.

Love that refrain Black Francis, keep on keepin' on!

Yes sir. That band mutated in Bunnies which, I think, just released an album.

First thing I did this morning after hearing this song was brush my teeth with Colgate teeth whitening toothpaste (because I'm Scottish and have yellow teeth)

It sounds fucking great. So catchy. Charles properly sounds like he's channeling the giddier, higher-pitched BF of yesteryear.
