RIP Steve A From Shellac to The Breeders and then some, my favorite grundge was produced by that man. He saw the talent in the cracks.

I think next year is a bloody good opportunity for a long overdue anniversary issue of 'Pod' with demos and other bells and whistles! ❤

The Breeders are seriously the most underrated band in music history

Idk, they’re a great band and should have more recognition but I’d say the Kelley deal 6000 is more underrated

Pod is probably my favorite album from the 90s. I remember being introduced to it on a tiny boom box by a girl named Hanna. Glorious and Fortunately Gone are two of my most favorite songs ever. I love how much faster and upbeat they sound here.

16 year ol me and 33 year ol me cry and thank you at the same time for keeping this up and alive

These are some of the most raw and realest tracks I've ever heard.

I love these demos, but you can see what Britt's drumming brought to the album's final versions.

i’ve never heard rave on until today and my life is completely changed holy hell

Wow the bass actually hits on this

With THIS I can kind of see how Tonya Donnelly came into play. The Breeders were originally supposed to feature many of her songs used for the Belly LP Star, before she broke away. And I always thought- “HOW?? The styles are NOTHING alike”. The Breeders’ album art color schemes from 90- 93 as well as the Amp’s pacer are totally synesthetically spot on. The songs are sweet, fruity, sticky, sweaty, tropical tinted little explosions of sound- while Belly’s stuff was dark yet sparkly shades of blue, purple and green. BUT the demo versions of these songs share a lot more middle ground with what Tonya did with Belly & I see how it could definitely have worked, had they split the song duties for The Breeders as originally intended.

Oh wow this is awesome...when I think back to late 80s / early 90s I liked Belly, Lush, Cocteau Twins, This Mortal Coil, dance stuff ..I don't know..Suzanne Vega. all sorts! But I was more led by Grunge in terms of anything American, it's only now reading the book 'Facing the other way' re 4AD that I'm realising what I've missed out on! I honestly thought that Cannonball was the only Breeders song worth bothering with...just goes to show how wrong I was! ... and this post is part of my new education!! Thanx!! 👍😄

The rythm, voice, such an amazing band👏

How come I had never heard these demos before? Pod is one of my all-time favourite records; lost none of its strange appeal in 30 years. Thanks, great upload! Kim's unique songwriting and wonderful voice shine through, here, even without Albini's production, but I have to say that the LP sounds more coherent to me. Overcome would have felt out of place on Pod, I think, though it would have been great on Last Splash (of course, finally, we've had Bragging Party, but still...) Also, I really like what Gil Norton did with Silver. The song is superb and strange as it is, but Norton added another layer of strangeness to it, making it almost otherworldly.

Thanks for these. I have so many different versions of these demos all with slightly different speed and pitch. It'd be great to have these released officially so I could chuck out all the others!

I think I know the line you're talking about, I've listened to it repeatedly with my headphones on full volume and I think it's "I resign my senses, then to kiss this, cheek I breathe in." I get the sense that the song is about leaving a town you dislike, so that line is like you're kissing a loved one goodbye then breathing in, bracing yourself to leave behind the "silver" in search of "gold". I'll probably make a cover of this soon so I'm trying to get the lyrics as close as I can!

Mind blown by this. Tanya's vocals on an equal level with Kim's is gob smacking. If this pre-dated Doolittle that means La La Love You is a steal from Fortunately Gone! What's the line-up? 100% sounds like Dave from the Muses on drums.

When I read this comment, I thought, FG sounds nothing like LLLY. Then, I went back and listened to it again, and I heard the cat call whistle. They may have borrowed that, or got inspiration from it, to make a song with the cat call more out front. Other than that, I really do believe they're completely different songs. Nice catch though.

Overcome I think was the very very early seeds for Canonball, You always hang around 100% is going to become Divine Hammer & Fortunately Gone sounds a lot like Muses Not Too Soon... Neither Overcome nor You always hang around made it onto POD so it is almost a certainty that they were re-worked into the songs as referenced above... and altho Fortunately Gone did make it onto POD- it is difficult not to believe that this song at a min influenced Not Too Soon released a year later & prob the Throwing Muses most popular song as far as commercial success I think.

Any information on rave on?

Albini did a great job for sure, it's Albini! But in my opinion, the guy that made it sound huge was the one and only Britt Walford.

Boring secrets mans

These are fantastic songs, and to my ears these demos sound much better than the album versions. The guitar parts in the album versions seem to have too little low end, so the songs sound thinner and weaker compared to the demos. I think Steve Albini is overrated as a producer. Many great albums have been recorded by him but in all cases the demos of these albums sound better than Albini's versions. At least that's how I perceive it
