NME has the scoop on a new behind-the-scenes Pixies documentary set to premiere at SXSW in Austin, Texas later this week. Titled loudQuietloud: A film about the Pixies, the film features live footage from a series of post-reunion shows as well as backstage interviews with the band.

Director Steven Cantor who directed the film along with Matthew Galkin had this to say about what he discovered:

It was surprising to see how utterly human this band was, particularly in comparison to their idolised image,They were all coping with pretty standard mid-life issues, and meanwhile all these sold-out crowds were going crazy over them.

Not that they despise one another, they are just not the types of people who talk a lot, They would barely talk to each other in the van, get to the venue and go to their dressing rooms and warm up on their own, read or listen to music. And then when they got on stage, there was this electric energy and connection with each other and the audience.

Cantor also addressed the motivations behind the reunion saying: "I feel like 75 per cent of the reason for the reunion was for money, but the other 25 per cent was because of the fact that they're legends"

The film is the latest in a series of post-reunion releases from the band. The previous being the live DVD, Sell Out which was released last September.
