Keep in Touch with Mama Kim

By Corey DuBrowa on 3:00 PM on March 10, 2008

As the Dandy Warhols once suggested, it isn’t easy being “as cool as Kim Deal.” The former Mrs. John Murphy—her stage name for the first two Pixies albums—has been even busier than usual: After rejoining the Pixies for one of the most successful reunions in rock history...  read more

By Mark Krotov on 12:00 AM on January 15, 2008

The last time the Breeders went on tour, it was a different world. Things sure have changed, but some consistency is about to be restored to this chaotic world. That’s right, the Breeders are going on tour for the first time in six years. On April 7, the Sisters Deal will release Mountain Battles on 4AD, and their European tour will launch on that very same day. But fear not, non-European resident, because you will also have a shot at catching Kim and Kelley in action. The Breeders will play Toronto’s Canadian Music Week, Austin’s South by Southwest, and Indio,...  read more

The Breeders wage Mountain Battles on new album

By Jeremy Goldmeier on 10:41 PM on December 4, 2007

This just in: You can upgrade the Breeders' album production rate from glacial to... uh... glacial (those things are melting faster every day, you know). As RollingStone.com and a whole mess of other sites reported yesterday, the Kim and Kelley Deal-led collective will release Mountain Battles on April 8 of next year, a scant six years after Title TK arrived on the scene. Of course, over those six years, Kim Deal got sucked into the whole Pixies reunion hysteria, which probably slowed down work on the record a wee bit. So what does Mountain Battles sound like, Kim? “We did...  read more
