Pixies release four unearthed songs and remastered albums

The Pixies are releasing four previously unreleased songs from the 1987 to 1991 period on all digital streaming platforms. The tracks include ‘Dig For Fire (Albini Version)’, ‘Go Man Go’, ‘Brackish Boy’, and ‘Punk Loop’.

These songs were previously only available through limited-edition remastered vinyl pressings of the albums Bossanova and Trompe le Monde. The ‘Dig For Fire’ version was recorded in late 1987 during the Surfer Rosa sessions, while ‘Go Man Go’ is a co-write by Black Francis and Kim Deal. ‘Brackish Boy’ was mastered directly from its original album session tape, and ‘Punk Loop’ was recorded during the 1991 Trompe le Monde sessions.

The release coincides with the 40th anniversary of the band, featuring remastered editions of the albums Bossanova and Trompe le Monde. The remasters were produced by Kevin Vanbergen, who has been working through the band’s tape archives to create new mixes.
