Pixies were a vastly influential band who didn’t stick around for too long or release too much music in their first incarnation, which means people have been mining their discography for decades. Somehow, though, someone has found a handful of Pixies tracks that have never seen the light of day. Later this year, Pixies will include those tracks on new reissues of their third and fourth albums, 1990’s Bossanova and 1991’s Trompe Le Monde. <\/p>\n
In September, Pixies will release remastered editions of both of those albums, and there will be two limited-edition vinyl pressings, the “Dinked International Editions,” that’ll include bonus 7″ singles with those previously unreleased tracks. The Bossanova reissue has a version of “Dig For Fire<\/a>,” one of that album’s singles, that the band originally recorded with Steve Albini during the 1991 Surfer Rosa sessions. It’s also got “Go Man Go,” a song that Black Francis and Kim Deal wrote together. The Breeders recorded their own version during the Last Splash sessions, and that version came out on a later reissue, but this will be the first release for the Pixies version.<\/p>\n As for the Trompe Le Monde reissue, the bonus 7″ has two songs, “Brackish Boy” and “Punk Loop.” Black Francis included a later version<\/a> of “Brackish Boy,” on the self-titled album that he released as Frank Black in 1993. “Punk Loop” seems to be an experimental track that’s never come out in any form. <\/p>\n The Bossanova and Trompe Le Monde reissues are out 9\/11 on 4AD. You can pre-order Bossanova here<\/a> and Trompe Le Monde here<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Pixies were a vastly influential band who didn’t stick around for too long or release too much music…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":715298,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[28],"tags":[64,63,134,136],"class_list":["post-715297","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-music","tag-au","tag-australia","tag-entertainment","tag-music"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/715297","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=715297"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/715297\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/715298"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=715297"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=715297"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=715297"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
