My favorite band reformed and pretty much kicked arse (live) on their return…
I caught a glimpse of Pixies at a festival in Germany and the set was storming – but I’d had trouble convincing myself to buy their forth album all those years ago.. and this was a band that didn’t out stay their welcome in the first place… they certainly didn’t fade away.
So bands and singers making come backs really isn’t up my street… that said come back makes a fantastic playlist… enjoy:

The 'Spill 
The Arthur Baker wasn’t as disco as you would expect & the hip hop Enigma steal was ace. Think Steen might want her Roots back & suspect you are deliberately ignoring The Guru’s rubrik (don’t blame you – it wasn’t one of his best ideas).
Loved the Casio-Cure sound of the Shout Out Louds, the whimsical off-balance strumming of Born Ruffians, the humming majesty of The Roots, Coldcut’s fucked up mash-ups.
(Great graphic by the way)
I’m halfway through and loving it. Can’t find a solid block of time.
