The Breeders
The Breeders are an American alternative rock band based in Dayton, Ohio, consisting of members Kim Deal (rhythm guitar, lead vocals), her twin sister Kelley Deal (lead guitar, vocals), Josephine Wiggs (bass guitar, vocals) and Jim Macpherson (drums). The earliest incarnation of the band was formed by Kim Deal and Tanya Donelly in 1989 as a side-project alongside their full-time bands Pixies and Throwing Muses respectively. To record their debut album, 1990's '' Pod'', Deal and Donelly recruited bassist Josephine Wiggs of The Perfect Disaster and drummer Britt Walford of Slint. Kim's sister Kelley was brought into the band as a third guitarist (though at the time, Kelley famously had never played guitar before joining the band) in 1992 to record the '' Safari'' EP, and shortly thereafter Tanya Donelly left to concentrate full-time on her own new band, Belly, leaving Kelley Deal as the sole lead guitarist, while Britt Walford left as well around the same time.

Boom! Boom! Boom!
''Boom! Boom! Boom!'' is the second album by the Kelley Deal 6000, released in 1997. "Brillo Hunt" was the album's first single; the title refers to the practice of using steel wool to filter crack cocaine. Production The album was produced by Deal, who also cowrote or wrote all of the album's songs. It was recorded over a period of two and half weeks in February 1997. Critical reception ''Stereo Review'' wrote that "the sex-rocking 'Shag, the punk-snarling 'Get the Writing Off My Back', and the boom-boom-booming 'Brillo Hunt' are as catchy as anything on ''Last Splash'' but more fully arranged." ''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 ...
