i just broke this out again. every time i break it out it impresses me even more.
THE SHE TOO ALIVE SON OF THREE
basically the first 8 songs are absurdly great. and then u have sinister foxx which is like OK. and then the last 3 songs are beautiful.
i mean WHAT THE FUCK
THIS ALBUM FUCKING RULES. i feel a phase coming on.

just saw that pixies reunion doc (what an awkward band!), featuring kim & kelley working on breeders demos in the tourvan -- never heard Title TK, but I should probably get it ... I think I love pretty much everything Ms. Deal does ...

it's a wonder, though i wonder if it'll get the remaster treatment 15 yrs from now and i'll think 'that's what it ALWAYS shoulda sounded like'

been watching buffy and found myself very pleased to see them playing within an episode, unannounced and seemingly out of fucking nowhere

its a strange odd record. i liked it when it came out, havent listened to it in a long time (must dig it out again) and everybody i knew either hated it or was just befuddled by it. its all feel and mood i guess, like 'pod' in that sense. theres no 'cannonball' or 'drivin on nine' here.
― Michael B, Wednesday, 1 September 2010 12:19 (thirteen years ago) link
'mountain battles' even better i thought
My copy has been stuck in my car's CD player since 2002, so the album's legendary status has only grown.

this record is weird. i love the way it ends Sinister Foxx/Forced to Drive/ T and T/ Huffer are all awesome. don't like much else aside from those and Off You, which is one of the most beautiful things ever.
― mizzell, Wednesday, 1 September 2010 13:42 (thirteen years ago) link
Off You, with "I am the make-up on your eyes" and whatever that SOUND is (BEYOOOOOO), is classic.

― verhexen, Wednesday, 1 September 2010 14:49 (thirteen years ago) link
Great album, great band. Mountain Battles is just about as good, but different.I love the language exercise songs on Mountain Battles.Was there a tour video released around the time of Title TK?There's a video for Son of Three (for instance) on youtube and the song is a little faster and uh dirtier, I guess.
― Trip Maker, Wednesday, 1 September 2010 15:04 (thirteen years ago) link
this record has some really great songs on it...

kind of surprised to hear haerosmith likes it though...

OFF YOUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU
so good, i kind of never need to hear another Kim Deal song because it's perfect.

i can't even really talk about it anymore
― janice (surm), Wednesday, 1 September 2010 21:30 (thirteen years ago) link
My latest theory is that Title TK distills all the stuff I liked from Pod, and drops all the stuff I hated from Last Splash, which explains the divided response. I'm getting iffier and iffier lately about whether even Pod is better...
― dlp9001, Wednesday, 1 September 2010 23:04 (thirteen years ago) link
for some reason i have never checked the breeders about beyond this album. i love it a lot, but i've heard it's their worst? that's a lot of hype for their other music.
― marc iv, Thursday, 2 September 2010 04:09 (thirteen years ago) link
so weird. this album's reception is like an enigma.
― janice (surm), Thursday, 2 September 2010 04:13 (thirteen years ago) link
Imagine hating on an album that goes from "Off You" to "The She" to "Too Alive"

God this record. Who could ever write and record "Sinister Foxx"? A ticket to the subconscious.

This is still probs my favourite Breeders LP.

I picked up the 2018 vinyl reissue of this today--felt obligated bc "all wave"--and of course it sounds better than ever. Just an endlessly fascinating album for me, full of weird and wonderful ideas. Today the random bursts of violence on Put On A Side jumped out more than usual. I think Kim Deal has my favorite voice of any human
