Frank Black of the Pixies has announced plans to release his next solo album as a double CD. Titled Fastman/Raiderman, the album is due out June 20 (Back Porch/EMI).

Black recorded the album with long-time producer Jon Tiven over two years and a total of 27 songs made the cut for the double album. Like his previous solo album, Honeycomb, Frank enlisted the aid of a number of notable musicians including Levon Helm from The Band, Tom Petersson from Cheap Trick, Heartbreaker drummer Steve Ferrone, the legendary Al Kooper, honky-tonk hero Marty Brown, songwriting enigma P.F. Sloan, and Simon Kirke from Bad Company and Free.

Black plans to begin supporting the album on a tour set to begin after the Pixies' upcoming European jaunt.
