You can pre-order the album here.Vocalist/guitarist Black Francis said of the new album: “We’re trying to do things that are very big and bold and orchestrated. 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.”Guitarist Joey Santiago added: “This time around we have grown. We no longer have under two-minute songs.
We have little breaks, more conventional arrangements but still our twists in there.”In addition to digital/streaming formats, ‘Doggerel’ will also be issued in a variety of physical configurations. There will be a range of gatefold colour vinyl options: the standard red vinyl; a yellow vinyl will be available exclusively from select independent stores, and an orange vinyl that is only available from the Pixies’ official store that also offers an exclusive red cassette.
