Does anyone *really* want to hear Frank Black talk about vagina?
Probably not. But that isn't stopping the Pixies frontman from getting really, really, REALLY into it on his new solo album, NonStopErotik. The new BLACK FRANCIS disc, due March 30 on Cooking Vinyl, was produced by fellow guy-we-don't-want-to-see-naked ERIC DREW FELDMAN. The only details that have been released thus far: a typically random statement from Francis that tries very hard to get you in the mood, and fails harder than anyone this side of a Timbaland solo gig. To wit:
When I was a boy the plant we boys called a fern was code for vagina, and to this day I love fern plants. In my heart the vagina is almost everything, and almost everything else could be summed up in what cock and seed have to offer; and everything else? The love of the father, dead or alive, the pain of too much pleasure, till death do us part, the voice of another song man from the other side, with or without God, Teri and the Possibilities, where ever you may be, the smell of sex in the air, seduced, slain, on my knees in prayer, sucking at the only thing that matters, my own personal Meret Oppenheim, I am Man Ray and I want you and to be all the way inside you, the cameras whirring as we put some elbow grease into the scene, the audience watching us in the dark.
