Pixies No Longer Planning To Release New Material

There isn't, and may never be, any new Pixies music in the offing -- but that's not for trying, according to the group's Frank Black.

Black tells Billboard.com that about six months ago he wrote a batch of new songs for the band "in an attempt to convince one of the Pixies to make a Pixies record again. I can't say who she is," he adds with a laugh, referring, of course, to reticent bassist Kim Deal.

Ultimately, however, Black says that while he "liked how a few of [the songs] came out," the exercise showed him that his heart wasn't necessarily in it, either.

"I tried to find my Pixies muse and write a so-called Pixies number," he says, "but they just weren't any good. They sounded a little contrived or something. That's the problem with trying to repeat something you did a long time ago; if you go 'Okay, I'm gonna try to recreate something, tap into some mood I used years ago,' even if it's the same songwriter, it's kind of fakey."
