I don't remember seeing a Classic Masher vine, the last one was likely Ring the Bell. Can you link to the one you are referring to?

great find, jake3! funny that three of the songs transmarine spoke of aren't included. it'd be cool if the pixies just released some of those demos.

It's not a clip of him singing over the actual music, just him singing it casually. Turns out it was 4 months ago, ha.

Is it confirmed that there will only be 3 eps ? For some reason I assumed that quite a few more tracks were recorded and that there will be 4 or even 5 eps released while the tour goes on . Then probably a deluxe package containing all ep tracks and accompanying videos . I don 't think we'll get an album any time soon as the bands current stance is so anti album they would look like chumps if they backtracked and put one out, that's just my two cents .

Nothing has been said about how many EPs are being released, but from the interviews we've heard over the past few months, I believe there has only been 3 EPs worth of material produced. Everything else they've done is probably in demo form at the moment.

I would like the 25-ish new songs listed on BMI to be released on a double album, with bonuses like all the demos, artwork, acoustic live versions, (and even videos)
And of course re-recorded with Paz on bass, vocals, maybe violin, and remixed / remastered

When was EP3 supposed to come out again? Was it March or April?

I think the only time frame is the somewhat quarterly schedule established and the fact that they've coincided with holiday weekends. There was a bullshit date on wikipedia and it was deleted.

I'd either just expect the unexpected, or at best, maybe shoot for the next major tour leg and/or holiday. Memorial day? Ahhh that seems like too long of a drought between releases.

Expect the unexpected IMO.

wasn't a month mentioned in one of the interviews? i seem to remember that. maybe i'm wrong. i can't really remember where i got that. i'll have a look. (i just thought maybe someone else would also remember this and have a fresher memory of it.)

ok, i had a look, and i find multiple articles and reviews stating 7 april as the release date of EP3. i assume that's the date was incorrectly announced on wikipedia.
so we don't know, basically. all right. thanks for your help, johnny and brank.

yeah, it's absolutely this. whenever they exhaust an EP of music videos, they release the next one. there's nothing remotely surprising about the releases. it's all bizness.

Silver Snail – 3:29
Ring the Bells – 3:35
Jamie Bravo – 4:24

Just type in Pixies:
http://repsearch.ppluk.com/ARSWeb/appmanager/ARS/main?cont=A

Seeing as only the previously released songs and these 3 are on the site I'm pretty certain that EP3 will contain these + 1 other (most likely Classic Masher as Frank's done it live solo + there was a Vine of him singing it). Unless of course it's a 3 song EP. Perhaps the forth song is the one they recently recorded with Paz??



It makes even more sense as Dave said in an early interview that they came in with 5 songs and wrote 7 more in the studio. 12=Bagboy+EP1+EP2+A 3 track EP. We know in fact that they have more songs than that so maybe he meant they completed an additional 7 songs and the rest were left as demos. I'm sure I've read an interview saying they produced a lot of new music in the studio whilst demoing even more.



Looks like this was Spot On!
Some other predictions in this thread, not so much.

Can we combine the 2 EP-3 threads to make things easier?

Combining pre and post EP-3 thoughts and predictions in one place? Having only 1 thread titled EP-3? Maybe I'm the only one that goes back and reads past posts?

I think it's good idea. Interesting that no one predicted "Bagboy" as the opening track??

Or that instead of packaging EP-3 with a t-shirt or a hoodie this time, they've decided to compile all the previous releases in one place and call it an "album"...

Am I bitter? ...
