Following July’s “Um Chagga Lagga,” the lead single off of Pixies’ forthcoming Head Carrier, is “Talent,” a new one from the alt-rock primogenitors. Referencing Hollywood-Walk-of-Fame actor Jack Palance, “Talent” is a straightforward — if not fairly lazy — number that, like “Um Chagga Lagga,” more or less proves our recent point: that no great band has ever cared less than Pixies. Listen below, and get Head Carrier on September 30 via Pixiesmusic/Play It Again Sam.
