Title: Relapsed "Catholics"
Product review: Frank Black & The Catholics keep getting tighter with their latest release. Recorded almost entirely live (save for one edit as I've heard) this one is one of the sweetest collection of songs the former Pixies frontman since "Surfer Rosa". Mr. Black and his bandmates mix it up a lot on this album, evoking the Rolling Stones on some of the arrangements. Hell, the piano-playing alone is worth a listen. If you are a Pixies fan or are just plain sick of what is being crammed down your throat by MTV and its ilk, get this one. Familiar and fresh at the same time, "Dog and The Sand" is well worth the trip to your local record store.
