Pixies announce 40th-anniversary reissues of their albums “Bossanova” (1990) and “Trompe le Monde” (1991), scheduled for later this year. Multiple outlets report the reissues are limited vinyl editions that include previously unreleased tracks that have not been publicly available before. The planned release ties to the band’s long-running interest and ongoing archival attention around its early catalog, with these new editions presenting material sourced from sessions that had remained out of circulation.
One outlet specifies that the unreleased content includes a Steve Albini-recorded version of “Dig for Fire,” listing it among the additional tracks included with the vinyl reissues. The reports collectively describe the reissues as expanded versions of the original albums, but they do not provide further tracklist specifics beyond noting the presence of unreleased songs. Overall, both sources agree that the key new element is the addition of archival, previously unheard recordings to the anniversary vinyl releases of the two albums.
