    The Amps released just the one album 'Pacer' back in 1995 - featuring Kim Deal, Jim MacPherson, Nate Farley and Luis Lerma. You'll often hear a couple of Amps tracks when The Breeders play live...

    Kim Deal has carefully avoided the 'what is it like to be a woman in the music industry?' shit. She's just a great artist and a very smart person. I waited outside the shop to buy on the day it came out in the UK. About 5 people were in front of me, all for the same reason. That she constantly strives to evolve while already successful is something even the greatest artists don't have the bottle to do. She does. Good for her.
    To be honest, she is the only musical figure I've ever wanted to meet and I'm 47.

      I think she probably had a lot of issues with the songs they were writing and the way they were being recorded. Plus she didn't really have fun in that band-hanging out, etc.-and would rather do her own thing, which makes sense. She's in her mid-50s, why spend time doing something you're not really into, with people you're not really friends with anymore? (Looking forward to the day when people will stop talking about the Pixies every time they talk about Kim.)

      From what I read, Charles might well have a point, but more relating to why The Pixies split first time round. Further evidence in my opinion, is Black Francis hasn't come up with a good song since....suggesting to me, Kim had all the song writing smarts.

      Don't be silly. The most pop sounding song that the Pixies recorded was "Here comes your man" and Charles wrote it when he was a teenager. Gigantic, the bands first hit, was mainly composed by Charles as well, with Kim figuring out the lyrics.

      I'm happy with my view....the new Pixies material minus Kim Deal has been pretty crap too.

      Frank Zappelin Her sister was in prison and the other girl was taking a break, so she made this group as a side project.

    • @MrMicalo
      @MrMicalo 6 років тому

      yeah but later she kept the name "Breeders" even with a different line up !

    • @collapsedsynapse
      @collapsedsynapse 6 років тому +1

      Frank Zappelin I think she wanted to keep the lineup for the 2nd album after her sister rejoined, but the other two weren’t interested at the time so they changed it back.

    Yawn. Other than the double tracked female vocals. Always love that. Kim, you're a great songwriter....cannonball, etc are top-knotch.
