Pixies - The Night The Zombies Came

NEW VINYL ON 4AD 2024

180 GRAM VINYL.

‘the night the zombies came is pixies’ tenth album, if you count their classic 1987 4ad mini lp come on pilgrim, and first new music since 2022’s acclaimed doggerel lp. 13 new songs that find pixies looking ahead to the most cinematic record of their career. songwriter, vocalist and guitarist black francis explains: “fragments that are related and juxtaposed with other fragments in other songs. and in a collection of songs in a so-called lp, you end up making a kind of movie.” druidism, apocalyptic shopping malls, mediaeval themed restaurants, 12th century poetic form, surf rock, gargoyles, bog people, and the distinctive dry drum sound of 1970s era fleetwood mac are just some of the disparate wonders that inform the new songs.  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pixies
