I ask anyone remotely considering purchasing this mini album to part with their cash asap, it really is a brilliant example of how genius needn't be overelaborate and self endulgant. Simple sounding, yet I defy most to inspire such emotive feelings without sounding like they're trying too hard; I suppose another example would be the White Stripes. Anyway I highly recommend this and like others I agree that the last track is probably the best, it's been my favourite for the past few listens.

On first listening I was a little disappointed, I was expecting the dizzying heights of 'threshold apprehension' or 'tight black rubber'.
However once again, listen to Franks songs again and they sound beautiful. This man deserves more respect than most, and again it sounds better than most of the dross I've heard released since bluefinger.
On the album check out 'when they come to murder me', it's quality. Besides, and lets re-check, it's an 'EP'. Franks best work was the louder stuff, and this for me is a worthy buy.
(PS for the next album, can we have more 'so hard to make things out'?)
Only wishing.

Once again, after the glorious return of Black Francis last year, he comes up with another great album.
7 songs and 20 minutes - that's really all it takes for him to leave a huge impression on the listener. As with 2007s Bluefinger, 7 fingers is a coherent collection of songs, and the digital control on the CD player is best left untouched.
However, if I am forced to pick one song, it must be the last one, "When The Come To Murder Me". Fantastic melody and great lyrics.
Buy this album now and be amazed!

frank blacks post pixies releases have been a little hit and miss, but this is a quality mini album with several possible future classic FB tracks.
"The Sues" - a bonkers little verse riff and crackers vocal morphing into a delicate chorus... good track
"Garbage Heap" - yes the track that could have been from the bossanova sessions. it's a good track
"Half Man" - got that early frank black solo albums feel to it. good track
"I Sent Away" - urgent little punky track.. weakest track on the album in my opinion even with the harmonica solo!
"Seven Fingers" - a little bit of upbeat country but with the usual frank black touch of class. great little song and one of the 2 best tracks ... Read More:

Absolutely beautiful, rocks like no other album this year, alternately poignant, melodic and kick ass,
Part Pere Ubu, part Beefheart, all Black Francis. ALL KILLER NO FILLER!
Although only 7 tracks, it's better than anything i've heard this year, literally sublime.
