Steve Lamacq on BBC 6 Music yesterday started his show playing a Pixies song, then announced there will be some new music coming later in the year. |

According to my calculations there are 66 original Pixies 1.0 (including the covers) - maybe one or two more I've missed? - and thus far they have recorded 46 or 47? original Pixies 2.0 songs - which means if they release 40 new songs this year then that will mean they will have released more 2.0 than 1.0 songs - which feels weird |

He has written 40 news songs but that doesn't mean they're gonna record 40 songs! I think they will rehearse and record just a few of them... |

Yes but only half of those could mean potentially crossing into Pixies 2.0 now has more songs than Pixies 1.0 world, is ultimately what I'm getting at here |

At least we know he wasn't faffing about during the pandemic, I was getting worried for a while watching these clips of him banging saucepans. |

I wouldn't read too much into the 40 songs thing. That's just how a lot of these seasoned guys work. If you look into the stories behind Bob Dylan and Tom Petty albums, they might start off with 30-50 songs and then that gets sanded down to the 12 or so that work best together. It's not all that crazy.
My only takeaway is "More music coming, yay!" |

Is that the artwork for the single, or album?! If so, I LOVE it. Such a change of pace for Pixies. Never seen them use artwork like this before. If not, and it's some Lamacq or BBC6 thing, then uhh nevermind haha |

I'm guessing Pixies rather than Lamacq. They posted this gif on their twitter account too. Looks like the same artist https://giphy.com/gifs/pixiesofficial-crime-pixies-human-2dam0IQq3QVykEymn3 |

"Human Crime"
I'm sorry I missed you I was already gone No goodnight kiss No one for me to lean on Into the blue sky Takes me far away Into the sunset Rising in from another day
Don't you be unkind That's a human crime Don't you be so bright It'll come back to you sometime
I went round your place There was nobody there At the cocktail lounge Someone else was in your chair Now even the sunshine Feels like misery Even the blue skies Are falling down on me
Don't you be unkind That's a human crime Don't you be so bright It'll come back to you sometime Don't you be unkind That's a human crime Don't you be so bright It'll come back to you sometime
Don't you be unkind That's a human crime Don't you be so bright It'll come back to you sometime Don't you be unkind That's a human crime Don't you be so bright It'll come back to you sometime
Come back to you sometime Come back to you sometime |

Really, really good single. Apparently a stand-alone recorded last fall. Just played on BBC6. I just wish this was part of an album. -oddball |

First play.....Well I don't know. But sometimes that can be a positive sign.
But Blimey Lamacq, call them The Pixies for God's sake, everybody has been since the 80's. 'Pixies' sounds naff! |

Went back and relistened to Hear Me Out, just to make sure. Yup. Their last round of music was really good. I'm not sure what happened with this new song... hopefully it isn't an ill omen. |

aw drat!! i thought this was the beginnings of an album roll-out... that's pretty disappointing.
but the song is nice! i particularly like the keyboards/organ in the second verse. but yes, i do really wish it was just a preview for an album rather than a once-off. but hey, there is still an album on the way, sometime... |

If this was recorded in LA last fall, it might very well just be a stand-alone single, since the most recent round of recording wasn't in LA. I personally like it a lot, but, as is so often the case with new material, some love it and some hate it. It has the quirkiness, layers, and chord changes that make me a Pixies fan. I just hope there's more on the way. Those 40 songs mentioned in an interview got my hopes up. -oddball |

Sentences I never thought I'd write.
I prefer their version of Que Sera Sera
(Seriously it's very good) |

Hm, should this not be its own thread?
Anyway, the video is cool (except that they're not in it. If a rock band video doesn't have the band in it embarrassing themselves I'M NOT INTERESTED!) and the song is catchy, though like many new Pixies songs, it feels quite mainstream and accessible and easy to like in ways I feel weird about still. |

It’s good because it doesn’t sound like the Pixies trying to make a Pixies song for Pixies fans I’m still hooked by those BTE demos for similar reasons probably Human Crime sounds like the two previous records, and sadly next one is also the same producer ? I think I already don’t care about the next album. But A lot of rough and lo-fi Bsides or nice side projects like this will definitely do it for me.

I like the production, specifically in the verses - the solo is also good - but unfortunately I find it a bit bland, which I have to admit I was expecting after reading the lyrics yesterday. |
