I do feel like the critics or Pixies fans praising Daniel Boone, I just want to be like "if you like that song check out Frank Black & The Catholics albums..."
Could you recommend a specific song?
Daniel Boone reminds me of songs like Manitoba, Man of Steel (ok not technically Catholics?), I Will Run After You, The Swimmer, Dog in the Sand, Coastline, etc...My point is that for Pixies fans, having this emotional existential kinda ballad seems like a departure, but a lot of Catholics music has that kind of feel to me...music to drive around to and feel these cathartic sad feelings. Boone feels like a Catholics song to me so much more than a Pixies song, not that what the Pixies band does with it is nothing short of perfect. |

| Awesome response, that makes me want to give FB&C another chance. I haven't really enjoyed what I've heard (s/t, pistolero, sunday & dog). I'll give the band another shot and especially the songs you've listed. |

I didn’t think this was possible, but I love this song even more after listening to the podcast episode about its creation and recording. Everyone in the studio knew it was special from the moment FB showed it to them, and they did such a good job adding the parts until it was a classic — especially Tom Dalgety. Wow.
