Tonight in Seattle:  

"No Deal!" says Kim Deal about a new Pixies album deal

Well, Pixies fans, I hope you got your fill with the Pixies last tour. Although many words were written about rumors that the venerable modern rock stars would record a new album, NME is reporting that there will be NO new Pixies album. Kim Deal apparently sees no need for new recorded Pixies material, and Black Francis/Frank Black says that's that.

I actually kind of agree. I'd hate to see the Pixies become like the Police or Jane's Addiction.

And considering it's Friday and rainy (well, in Davis), I think we all would enjoy the Pixies performing "Gigantic" (from 1988 ... even if Kim is wearing a UCLA t-shirt).

Too late.

Honestly, I'd rather see these reunited acts at least *try* to make another good CD instead of just coasting on the nostalgia angle. That's just plain sad to me, and the Pixies have been doing it for years now.

First off, the Deal sisters are the some of the coolest chicks in rock; period.

I think Kim is smart to not keep trotting out something whose time has past and left an indelible mark on Rock History.

She has moved on (The Amps, The Breeders & Solo) and so has the rest of the band (including that Frank Black guy).

I am way more interested to see and hear what she does next than hoping for another Pixies record.

PS - Breeders Title TK is in my top 20 records of all time and The Amps "Hooverin" in in my top 100 songs, so I am a bit biased.

I'm glad to read that someone else thought Title TK was great. I seem to remember it got a lot of flack when it came out.

I would love a new Pixies album. For that matter, I would ADORE another reunion tour. Because well when they reunited the first time, I had no idea who the pixies were, I was 12.

Maybe I'm niave, but I don't think they were doing it for money or anything like that. This post made me very sad D:
