(Gibson) Since the Pixies reunited in 2004, fans have been eager to have the alt-rockers regroup in the studio to make a new album. According to NME.com, even one extremely famous fan has encouraged the band to make new music together."Bono even asked… He's like, 'Please make a record!'" Pixies guitarist Joey Santiago said. Up until now, Black Francis and company have remained a strictly touring enterprise (with the exception of one single, "Bam Thwok"). Their last album, Trompe le Monde, was released 20 years ago. Santiago said that it might be time for a new full-length release from the band – which also includes Kim Deal and David Lovering.
"We can't leave that unturned," Santiago said. "That would frustrate me. It would. I think we should do it. But it's up to everybody." more on this story
