Support new music: choose from our favourite new albums this month.

Frank Black AKA Black Francis seems to be a busy man of late, what with an album with his wife, a spot on Danger Mouses latest compilation record (Check our review of that album HERE) and now this; a giant, monstrous deluxe box-set of epic proportions (coupled with an equally gargantuan price tag).

How big? The thing weighs 25 pounds, is two feet tall and can kill a bear with just a stare, its that big (ok, maybe not the last one...). 

It was designed by Vaughan Oliver, the same man that designed all five of The Pixies studio albums artwork. It features all of the aforementioned five albums from the band on a host of formats and a rather nice looking fifty-four page book of original artwork from a project that Vaghan was a part of.

It's gonna set you back $175 (Around £107) dollars for the Deluxe version but there's also an autographed Limited Edition version going for a ridiculous $495 (about £300). Who would've thought there's a recession going on?

If you've already got your credit card out and are apologising to the wife/husband for spending so much on something Frank Blank describes as "Not necessarily something you'd put next to your stereo, but on your marble coffee table with your other art books" then click HERE to purchase.

You can also check out a video below where it shows each and every part of the box-set in detail.
