Pixies are back with new single "Human Crime", their first new material since 2020.
End of the Road 2022 headliners Pixies have delivered their new single "Human Crime", marking their first new outing since 2020's "Hear Me Out", and it arrives with a video directed by Pixies' Paz Lenchantin.
Lenchantin says of the video, "The storyline is loosely based on an inside joke between Charles and me about going on tour. How we go through a door from our reality state into the altered state of becoming and being a Pixie."
The new song was written by Charles Thompson (Black Francis), produced and mixed by Tom Dalgety, and recorded in Los Angeles in autumn last year.
Pixies' "Human Crime" single is out now on Infectious/BMG.
