TS: "Swimsuit Issue" vs "Do You Love Me Now?"

she definitely wins a most boring and forgettable musican life-time achievement award from me. IF i were to hand out such an award. which i don't at the present time.

As for the Kims, I love them both too. I like Sonic Youth but never loved them like Pixies. I go with Deal.

I like Last Splash as much as any Pixies album, so.

New Breeders album should hopefully be here soon! They finished recording it a while back.

Thurston Moore pretty much turning into the Sonic Youth-loving Jason Bateman character from Juno is one of the more bizarre things to have happened in recent years. Thurston still gets to hang out and make lists of his favorite albums on the cool websites too.

Her and Gordon had very different lives.they are very different people! imagine that!
Yeah well I didnt start this thread or invite the comparison, i just wanted to talk about kim deal and she doesn't have a dedicated thread.
― Οὖτις, Tuesday, 20 June 2017 01:58 (six years ago) link
I'm loving the mini-revival for Pacer here. I feel like a lot of Gordon's SY songs are underrated but def Deal has connected to more profoundly; I like-to-love every single album of hers. Shakes & MatthewK & La Lechera all otm here
― the rockists' red glare (Drugs A. Money), Tuesday, 20 June 2017 04:05 (six years ago) link
Pacer's one of my fav five or so albums, probably. Always love listening to it. Only picked it up by chance, Back when vinyl wasn't selling much and The Amps had about 10% of the name recognition of The Breeders (iirc Deal once said not just calling it the third Breeders album was her biggest career regret).

"Bragging Party" looms over all other songs of the 90s, in my imagination.
― geoffreyess, Tuesday, 20 June 2017 15:58 (six years ago) link
otm that song is unbelievable.

haha it's so good my band sampled it
― Οὖτις, Tuesday, 20 June 2017 16:03 (six years ago) link
lol it was never clear to me if she was singing "memorized breaths" (as a ref to the harmonies in the song) or "memorized breasts" (which is also funny)
all the static noise on the vocal obscures the phrasing
― Οὖτις, Tuesday, 20 June 2017 16:04 (six years ago) link
so I guess I need this Amps album, huh?
― sleeve, Tuesday, 20 June 2017 16:06 (six years ago) link
yes!
― Οὖτις, Tuesday, 20 June 2017 16:06 (six years ago) link
to quote the album itself, it's full of... mythic noise
― geoffreyess, Tuesday, 20 June 2017 16:09 (six years ago) link
I've always been a big Pod fan but somehow the Amps thing was never on my radar
― sleeve, Tuesday, 20 June 2017 16:16 (six years ago) link
Deal's probably otm that releasing the album under a different name from the Breeders was a colossal mistake. You'd think that a follow-up to a huge album would've gotten more attention but it really kind of disappeared.
― Οὖτις, Tuesday, 20 June 2017 16:20 (six years ago) link
yeah, I'm a perfect example! already a fan, ready to hear more, missed it completely
― sleeve, Tuesday, 20 June 2017 16:22 (six years ago) link
Kim Deal is my favorite '90s musician, i think everything she touched that decade is gold and persona-wise she is just really appealing and admirable imo.
― nomar, Tuesday, 20 June 2017 16:23 (six years ago) link

another point of comparison:Amps and Free Kitten full-lengths both released 1995 around the same time, I got both, guess which one I held onto

Fwiw I spoke to a woman in NYC in 2002 who claimed she interviewed Kim D backstage at a gig and she was openly smoking heroin but I think she went to rehab for alcoholism rather than heroin and that was before the Pixies reformed so suggestion she did the reformation to support her habit doesn't ring true. She admits to taking lots of drugs in the late 90s. Anyway both these women are icons to me and this thread kinda sucks but here I am adding to it so fuck me I guess.

So glad Elijah Wood and you guys repped for Amps - Pacer. What a wonderful album I could have easily missed. Pollard only co-written a track but I kept imagining he had some bigger role because a bunch of songs sound a bit Pollardy to me.
