Your Invite To The Breeders' Mountain Battles Release Party

thubmnail icon: Your Invite To The Breeders' Mountain Battles Release Party

The Breeders are taking their time between releases, for sure, but as long as what they put out is as good as the excellent Mountain Battles, we're not complaining. About that listening party invite, it's a good news bad news thing: Bad news is, it already happened. Good news, it's up on Vimeo, of course. The better news is the band are really pretty adorable in it, looking and acting cozy and homey at the actual listening party with friends in Dayton. We get to see Kim wipe clean a test pressing and drop the needle, and from then the video features the properly mastered audio of the LP, set to footage of the Breeders blowing up balloons, posing for photos, and cutting a vinyl cake. At the least, it's a full album stream. At the most, you may just want to trek to Ohio and move in with the Deals.

Mountain Battles is out 4/7 in the UK and 4/8 in the US via 4AD.

Hehe, it's nice to hear something else than the house music I mostly listen too. Specially when you're just surfing around 07:40 in the morning. ;D

The girl with red hair in the video, Cheryl, is the guitar player in an awesome band called Tsk Tsk. Their album should be out sometime this year, and it will probably melt your ears.

Premature Evaluation: The Walkmen - You & Me

Before we got to soak-in the woozy organ and raw yelps of "In the New Year," the last taste we had of the Walkmen was that one-off "Lemon Hill." As we mentioned then, the Men said "Lemon" wasn't "exactly in...

M83 - "Kim & Jessie" (Montag remix)
