Before taking the Pixies back out on the road this fall for more ‘Doolittle’ dates, frontman Black Francis will embark on a short solo-acoustic tour of his own — beginning tonight — and he’ll follow that up in September with a brand-new studio album he recorded as a duo with singer-songwriter Reid Paley.

Blondie — still anchored by original members Debbie Harry, Chris Stein and Clem Burke — will embark on a 23-date North American tour this September and October to coincide with the belated U.S. release of their ninth studio album, ‘Panic of Girls.’

Erasure has unveiled a fall tour of the U.K. in support of new album ‘Tomorrow’s World’ — which the band reveals will arrive Oct. 3 in the U.K. and Oct. 4 in the U.K., preceded by first single ‘When I Start to (Break It All Down).’

Mike Peters is marking the 30th anniversary of The Alarm with ‘The Sound and The Fury,’ a 12-track collection of “brand-new recordings of songs that have been written at various stages throughout (his) songwriting history” that will come with a 90-minute making-of documentary.

4AD will celebrate the 25th anniversary of the Throwing Muses’ debut with the band’s first-ever compilation, a 21-song set called ‘Anthology’ that will come with, in its initial limited release, a hard-back book and a bonus disc with 22 additional B-sides and rarities.

The second and final release by Dalis Car — recorded by Peter Murphy and a dying Mick Karn last fall — will be a five-track EP titled ‘InGladAloneness’ and out as early as next month.
