Pixies by Tom Oxley
“This time around we have grown,” Pixies’ Joey Santiago says. “We no longer have under two-minute songs. We have little breaks, more conventional arrangements.”
Pixies will release their eighth studio record on September 30th.
Doggerel sessions began late last year when Black Francis worked on the early sketches of 40 new songs with producer Tom Dalgety in Massachusetts, before the final 12 were completed with the rest of the band in Los Angeles.
“We’re trying to do things that are very big and bold and orchestrated,” Francis explains. “The punky stuff, I really like playing it but you just cannot artificially create that shit.”
“There’s another way to do this, there’s other things we can do with this extra special energy that we’re encountering.”
