Earlier this year saw the release of the first Breeders album since 2002's Title TK.
By turns goofy, groovy, melancholy, strung-out, catchy, atmospheric and - at times - impossibly lovely, 'Mountain Battles' underlines that Kim Deal is a songwriter and a musician of rare intuition. Her songs move from offhand charm to emotional truth with casual grace, balancing scuffed-up noise against fraught silence; timeless structures against strange new shapes. And throughout, of course, there's Kim's unique voice - languid, urgent, bruised and beautiful.
In short, 'Mountain Battles' captures all the bittersweet electricity of classic Breeders records like Pod and Last Splash, and still manages to break new ground.
