Our Take

BLACK FRANCIS' latest album, 45603, is a whirlwind of musical genius and madness. The former Pixies frontman takes listeners on a wild ride through a sonic landscape filled with unexpected twists and turns.

From the frenetic guitar riffs of "Red Hot Light" to the haunting vocals of "Shadow of a Ghost," BLACK FRANCIS showcases his undeniable talent and versatility. The album is a testament to his ability to blend genres and create a sound that is uniquely his own.

But it's not just the music that makes 45603 stand out. The lyrics are equally captivating, with BLACK FRANCIS delving into themes of love, loss, and the human experience with a wit and charm that is all his own.

Overall, 45603 is a must-listen for any fan of alternative rock. BLACK FRANCIS proves once again why he is a force to be reckoned with in the music industry. So strap in, turn up the volume, and let BLACK FRANCIS take you on a musical journey you won't soon forget.

About the artist

Black Francis

Stephen "Black Francis" Thompson, frontman of the legendary alternative rock band Pixies, is a paradox wrapped in an enigma, topped with a hearty dollop of whimsy. With his signature yowl and off-kilter songwriting, Black Francis has left an indelible mark on the music landscape since the late 80s. Hailing from sunny Los Angeles, Black Francis (born Charles Michael Kittridge Thompson IV – try saying that five times fast) burst onto the scene with Pixies' groundbreaking album "Surfer Rosa," which featured classics like "Bone Machine" and "Where Is My Mind?" His unorthodox approach to songwriting, blending surrealist imagery with raw emotional honesty, has earned him a legion of devoted fans and imitators. Despite Pixies' initial breakup in the early 90s, Black Francis continued to release solo albums under his own name and as Black Francis, showcasing his eclectic musical influences and penchant for experimentation. Whether he's crooning a melancholic ballad or unleashing a full-throttle punk rocker, Black Francis never fails to captivate audiences with his unique brand of musical alchemy. In recent years, Pixies have reunited and continued to tour, proving that Black Francis is a force to be reckoned with both in the studio and on stage. With his distinctive voice, enigmatic lyrics, and penchant for pushing boundaries, Black Francis remains a true iconoclast in the world of alternative rock. So grab your flannel shirt, crank up the volume, and let Black Francis take you on a sonic journey like no other.
