It has lately come to my attention that some very smart people I know — who otherwise have great taste in music and art and all things cultural — don’t know who the Pixies are. If this is the case with any of our readers, I’m going to fix that today. The Pixies [...]

The reunited Pixes kicked off their nine city US tour -- the one where they play Doolittle cover to cover -- in Los Angeles earlier this week. The band's celebrating a lot, from the 20th anniversary of that classic LP to the release of the physically massive Minotaur boxed set (not so much a coffee table decoration as a coffee table), in various ways this week. You can download a free live EP culled...

Everybody pins Pixies' awesomeness on lead songwriter Charles Thompson, aka Frank Black, and it's true that in its genius late '80s run, when Pixies inadvertently created alternative rock, he wrote those fantastic compacted/fragmented psycho-pop songs. And the famous sex 'n' violence 'n' mythology lyrics.

The Pixies frontman ponders life, success and his band's reunion as the group prepares a 'Doolittle'-themed trio of shows at the Hollywood Palladium. The man they called Black Francis sipped his morning coffee, munched on chopped fruit and chuckled at the strange odyssey of this thing called life. In the past, the singer for the Pixies was famous for sounding crazed, possessed or sinister onstage,...

We played at the Monolith festival. That's in Colorado right? We played the same day as The Brian Jonestown Massacre. I have some amazing debauched stories about them.

It is rare when scifi geekiness and indie rock come together. Usually one must turn to the Pixies or early Frank Black for such things. Fortunately there are a few others. Butterglory, an underrated 90s band, has the Skills of the Star Pilot. It really just uses some scifi imagery, but I will take what I can get. A nice low key tune.

When Art Brut comes to town, I get excited. Not only do I love the band, I also see them as the kind of band that tends to quit on the U.S. They blast onto the scene with the exceptional album Bang Bang Rock & Roll, and I saw them touring to promote that album [...]
