Frank Black Francis madness


Hell yes: Frank Black is turning into Prince. He comes out with a new album like four times a year, has a crazy new website, and he loves the name game. The artist formerly known as Black Francis (born Charles Michael Thompson) became Frank Black circa 1993, and is now reverting back to Black Francis for his latest release Bluefinger, out Sept. 10 (pre-order here). And wait, there's more: Black has also released an exclusive iTunes EP, BUT it's only available on Canadian iTunes?! No word on the long-rumored Pixies reunion album though...
