Pod (The Breeders Album)
''Pod'' is the debut studio album by American alternative rock band the Breeders, released by 4AD records on May 29, 1990. Engineered by Steve Albini, the album features band leader Kim Deal on vocals and guitar, Josephine Wiggs on bass, Britt Walford on drums, and Tanya Donelly on guitar. Albini's production prioritized sound over technical accomplishment; the final takes favor the band's spontaneous live "in studio" performances. The Breeders formed in 1988 when Deal, bass player for the Pixies, befriended Donelly of Throwing Muses during a European tour. They recorded a country-infused demo in 1989, leading to 4AD co-founder Ivo Watts-Russell funding an album, ''Pod'', recorded that year at the Palladium studio in Edinburgh, Scotland. Due in part to Deal's work with the Pixies, the album was widely anticipated, particularly in Europe. It became a critical and popular success, reaching number 22 in the UK. Critics praised its dark, sexualized lyrics, and compared it favor ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

''Rolling Stone'' called ''Boom! Boom! Boom!'' "a fun and arty fuck-about of a solo album," writing that "there's a lot of sonic debris here, too: bratty Mouseketeer-like cheers, hokey ditties such as 'Stripper' and arbitrary instrumentation like military snare drums and penny whistles." ''The Columbus Dispatch'' concluded: "While several cuts spill over with resonating guitar pop, many ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
