American alternative rockers Pixies are back with a surprise double A-side single as they kicked off their North American co-headlining tour with Modest Mouse and Cat Power.
The Pixies‘ first new music of 2024, “You’re So Impatient” is an original track that the band describe as an “explosive two-minute, nine-second zombie attack on the shopping mall“. It also features their first recording with new bassist Emma Richardson, formerly of Band of Skulls, who replaced Paz Lenchantin earlier this year.
The other cut is a cover of the 1950s standard “Que Sera, Sera”, which the band originally recorded for the soundtrack to the TV series From. Both tracks will also be released on limited edition 7-inch vinyl on July 19.
The Pixies‘ tour with Modest Mouse and Cat Power officially kicked off last week in Charleston, South Carolina, with dates running until the end of June. The US-born outfit will then tour the UK, Europe, New Zealand and Australia later in 2024.
