Pixies to perform new music in Houston

Joey Santiago , beginning player Pixies alternative rock godfathers , is somewhere on the way from the East Coast , doing press as he proposes a low.

" My ears ar phase shift off ," he jokes . Or at least we have a tendency to expect , therefore.

The band plays from Monday to Friday night at Lake Music Center, with guest support Best Coast. The last time the Pixies Fri place in the Gregorian calendar months of 2010, a friend rushed across the stage of " Where Is My Mind ? " Everyone's favorite song of the encore Pixies.

" It scared the ( expletive ) out people at the time," says Santiago. "We did not grasp what was happening . "

The band quickly left the stage in which the person was approached by security, and then the right song started where they left off after returned .

Luckily that did not swear to withdraw from the city lake .


Fans are following last year Pixies activity through Santiago 's tweets as they create a welcome return to the world of rock with a series of videos, singles , EP releases and a key change alignment.

Player founder Kim Deal left the band last summer because the Pixies were waist deep in study sessions in Wales, sharpening their new initial recordings in a decade greatly. Said the leader of Pixies, Frank Black Rolling Stones was absolutely fine " clumsy " . The band is currently road with Paz Lenchantin on bass.

That new music - " EP1 " September and last month " EP2 " - unlike this road spherical previous outings . There was the triumphant 2004 REUNION - still no new music - and the dates 2010-2011 spherical celebrating " Doolittle " . around this point , although ' the band may have to play eight new cuts .

"We selected tiny snacks instead of giant dishes ," says Santiago. "These days an album out and is gone. " The idea behind these "mocks " types was that there was easier for fans and newbies to digest.

They are terribly real and definite possibility of cathartic EPs and an LP -stop on the way.

Conciseness seems to be a problem on earth Pixies. None of his iconic album ran over forty minutes. 2 EPs enter fifteen minutes each | for each | each } - each consisting of Gil Norton - and have no wasted area from the side .

" There ar classic albums out there with no filler , like 'The White Album' , ' dark side of the moon. " No fat in these records , "says Santiago.

The short model apparently fits the Pixies in 2014 , though 'Santiago wonders why a lot of bands do not sleep with subjecting themselves and fans at fifteen topics that assume they have to offer in place of one or ar two prime beef .

" We did not come to finish off a black circle over a brilliant record," says Santiago. "It's pieces on a laptop . "
