Mountain Battles

Description

The Steve Albini produced ‘Mountain Battles’ is an album which captures all the bittersweet electricity of classic Breeders records like ‘Pod’ and ‘Last Splash’, and which breaks new ground at the same time; classic-sounding, yet as relevant and exciting as ever. By turns goofy, groovy, melancholy, strung-out, catchy, atmospheric, and at times, impossibly lovely, ‘Mountain Battles’ underlines that Kim Deal is a songwriter and 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 is Kim’s unique voice – languid, urgent, bruised, and beautiful.
