Pixies are back with a new single, “Human Crime”, their first new music since 2020. Led by a driving bassline, it’s a very classic Pixies sounding track down to the surfy guitars and big chorus. Will there be more new music soon? Stay tuned.

The “Human Crime” video was directed by bassist Paz Lenchantin, who states, “The script is loosely based on an ‘inside joke’ between Charles and me about a tour. How we walk through a door in our state from reality to the altered state of becoming and being a Pixie. Watch it below.

The Pixies have a few West Coast tour dates this month and will be spending most of the summer on the European festival circuit. All dates are listed below.
