She can drink most dudes under the table & She can handle her dope a lot better than most junkies. Like her twin Sister! To my knowledge Kim never hit bottom with dope. It was the, "Drink." Believe me, I am not being critical. ( Al Jourgensen of, "Ministry" went to Rehab 33 times! He blew A LOT of F-ing Money on his appetite for Drugs: mainly Heroin, (Deso-Morphine), Methadone, Cocaine & Crack-Cocaine, & last, but not least; old-fashioned Ethyl Alcohol. The worst 😫 Drug ever made, except for, "Krocadil" & other obscure crazy Drugs. Alcohol is a systemic poison that damages everything in the human body, except for: finger, toe nails, body hair & head hair. The hair being immune to the damage caused by Ethyl Alcohol is in debate. I lost most of gMany female alcoholics are adamant in their opinion that states: Ethyl Alcohol is bad for hair, it causes hair to be dry & difficult to handle & it causes split ends. All of these are supposed claims. Alcohol is socially accepted, yet it causes more violent crimes & property damage than all illicit drugs combined. I spent eleven months at Guantanemo Naval Base where Alcohol is tax free. This was in '99-2000 & a six pack of Budweiser long neck bottles was $2.68. A fifth of Jack Daniel's was about $7 even. My point is, the U.S. Government makes a tremendous amount of money off of Alcohol via taxes & The Prison Industrial Complex. However, it is a ridiculous double standard. I know. I got off track. - B

The first drummer was actually Britt Walford, credited on the album, Pod, as Shannon Doughton. He was originally in the Louisville, Kentucky based band Slint and was introduced to Kim Deal by Steve Albini, who had recorded Slint's first album, Tweez, in 1989.

Jim wasn't a part of the band until 1992 btw This is a more accurate account of their lineup history from the early years: Original Lineup: Kim + Kelley 1988: Kim + Tanya Donelly Pod Demos: Guitar & Vocals: Kim + Tanya Drums: David Narcizo, Mickey Bones, and Carl Haarer Bass: Ray Halliday 1989: Josephine joins the band as the bassist. Britt Walford becomes the drummer (suggested by Steve Albini) 1992: Kelley joins Tanya leaves Britt leaves Jon Mattock? (Apparently breifly became their drummer in 1992) Jim MacPherson joins as new drummer Carrie Bradley was the violinist for the Pod Demos through to Last Splash and then rejoined for the 1996-1997 shows.

I was at a Breeders show in Minneapolis in the mid-2000s where there were several people in the crowd yelling at them to play "Canyon" from Go to the Sugar Altar, and when the Breeders came back a few years later they indeed did have that on their playlist. The video also neglected to mention The Last Hard Men, however, I wasn't really expecting that to be mentioned.

Pixies during their initial run was a magical moment in time, certainly, and their importance can _never_ be understated. But the Breeders - in _every_ configuration - are just a far more interesting and rewarding musical proposition, in my opinion. Both bands are excellent, of course, and it's not really a fair comparison - they're two very different groups. But given the choice, I'll always pick the Breeders.

Saw the Pixies in ‘87 at a club on Long Island just before they broke big. Only like 10 people in attendance but they played their hearts out. Fast forward about 20 years to what I guess amounted to a reunion show in a stadium. The tension onstage was palpable. Obvs Black Francis wanted them to adopt a silent, distant demeanor, no intro or chatter between songs, just launched right into it. After a few songs, Kim broke the silence and said, “How’s everyone doing?” Crowd cheered as BF shot death glares at her. I don’t know if it was the infighting, their age, or a venue not suited to them, but they seemed to be phoning it in and it felt like we were seeing a really competent Pixies cover band. But, shit man, the greatest bands seem to result from X factor alchemy, and it’s hard to touch those first couple of Pixies records for raw verve and genius. Lightning in a bottle.

I LOVE Kim, she's an icon, I've been fortunate enough to meet her on several occasions and sees always been nice (my ex fiancee was childhood friends with Nate who played guitar in the Amps and GBV). Frank Black is/has always been a difficult personality from everyone around him, nice guy, but difficult personality... I could always see why him and Kim bumped heads. I miss Kim in the Pixies (great to see Paz up there though, totally love her). You should do a video on that awesome Dayton Ohio rock scene, with bands like Guided by Voices, The Amps, etc...... Or on Atlanta's scene, lots of awesome late 90's/early 2000's acts came from there too. Oh, and it came up in a conversation amongst friends of mine, whatever happened to that Howie Day guy? He was like indie/pop rock, but was huge in the College scene early 2K's

It was interesting seeing all these bands of the early to mid 90s try to find their place in the late 90s and beyond. From Garbage to Soundgarden, so many floundered. The musical landscape had changed so much, as had the technology for distribution. It's almost like everyone had to "grow up" in the late 90s (and by grow up I think I mean adapt).

Gotta be honest, this wasn't just Kim's other band but being treated as such is what killed it. Tanya Donnelly was just as big at the time, just as important to it's formation, Throwing Muses was also a 4AD band...

It's cool to see all the Deal Twins fans out there. Yes ...they are still making great music and touring before the virus hit. Back with the original Last Splash lineup and better than ever. Both Kim and Kelley are ROCK legends in their own right. I personally, can't wait for them to leave Dayton and head back out into the world. The earth is better with the Deal Twins around.

They went looking for "One Divine Hammer":-)

Underrated comment.

The Pixies were great . Each member brought something unique and irreplaceable . A classic 'More than the sum of its parts' scenario . Pilgrim , Surfer Rosa and Doolittle are flawless works . If Black Francis had looked like Kurt Cobain they would have been huge . Image counts , alas. The Breeders , and Kim as a songwriter , were never in the same league , although they do have a few great songs (Cannonball , Safari ) .

The Pixies were an awesome, awesome band. The Breeders mop the floor with the Pixies. Mountain Battles being the best album of all times, next to In Utero.

I picked up Last Splash at a thrift store recently, man I had forgotten how much that album kicks ass! The whole thing is really a balls-out 90s rock record! Love it!

I saw them live in Seattle at the Off Ramp for the Last Splash release party. I'm 50 years old now and still love that album.

I saw both bands play live. With Kim. I would say I enjoyed Pixies live a lot more than the Breeders. They're clearly the more solid band. But they were never the same without her. The Breeders albums are overall consistently better than the Pixies albums, witch to me were not always amazing. The best Pixies albums are definitely the ones Kim was in. Including "Indie City".

Saw Pixies first time thru at Staches in Col. OH. Liked the first l.p. and ep. But; great live. Didn't see the Breeders tho, which is odd because I went to shows a couple times a week. Seems like they would come by and play with Scrawl or Great Plains.

I loved her as the woman in Pixies, but I don't like her being bullied by Black Francis... So, I rather she'd be a Breeder.

'bullied' is an awfully strong (and wrong) word to describe their relationship. They were two strong-willed people with their own visions and egos. I don't think there is any evidenced he bullied her as much as she didn't get her way nearly enough and so she decided to do her own thing.

Oh wow, really? I am so happy you're here to school me 'professor'? He threw his guitar at her on stage. He ranted on about how he wanted to kill her. And before you get into historical Pixes facts, I really do not care what you think, so keep it to yourself. That means, don't respond and we can just go our separate merry ways.

@@stevenhaas9622 you're one of those that worships rockstars and defends them when they do wrong. Just because somebody is strong willed and fights back doesn't mean they weren't initially bullied. His behaviour was being a bully, but seeing as you feel the need to defend a relationship that you have no idea about and because you are so enanoured by Charles Francis, you will be an egghead and throw definitions around like an annoying nerd. If I knew you, I would throw my guitar at you. Are you beginning to see how bullying works or am I your new rockstar you need to defend?

he looks really uncool, both with hair and bald....I only know the song Gigantic by them.

They once came up from Dayton,to Piqua Oh. one Friday night,for "Cruise" night!!! (That was a HUGE Thing each weekend,where high-school kids would drive around the downtown area just "cruising" in the mid-80's. Anyway,this was before they became musically famous.

Thanks for this .... I'm looking forward to seeing the Breeders on an upcoming Australian tour

You skipped over how when she got back with the pixies for a short bit during the first reunion tour, she wrote their hit that got major radio play on KROQ. It was called “Bang Thwok”. Then she left or got kicked out again depending on the story. The Pixies hired another “Kim”, Shattuck, from The Muffs. They soon kicked her out too. Seems Frank Black has more of the ego than Kim. The fact “Last Splash” beat out all sales of Pixies and Black’s solo stuff COMBINED! says a lot.

@@ranica47 I've seen plenty of accounts like that about Kim around the final years of the Pixies. Apparently their manager at the time wanted to fire her due to her tardiness and being unable to keep in time with the rest of the band but the the group stood up for her.

Kim was brilliant in both. I love both bands.

From the very first time I heard the Beatles' "Happiness is a Warm Gun," I felt that it was really a 1990s alternative song before it's time. I always imagined Soundgarden doing it though. Surprised now to find out Kim and the Breeders did it, but not at all disappointed.

Ugh, I want that Safari ep of theirs so bad. I’ve been looking for it almost 20 years. It’s almost impossible to find nowadays though. It’s been out of print since the mid-90s, and is exceedingly rare. Such a cool little record. The title track especially.

they’re still a band. they rock.

I like The Pixies much more but The Breeders are great. Kim is a legend

LOVE both the Pixies & the Breeders!!! Cannonball is one kick ass 90s alt rock tune!!

Saw them perform at an empty pool in Brooklyn like 10 years ago, okay show - crowd woke up during Cannonball and it went pretty wild. When you have a hit, you have a hit.

Breeders are still around

I SEE BREEDERS I CLICK

Saw them on the 20th anniversary tour of Last Splash. They still brought the house down 🤘

Love the breeders and Kim deal

I just listen to the songs man, Breeders or Pixies doesn't matter to me✌

Writing songs on paper plates is a time honored practice. Not only are they readily available, but they are more durable and are easy to stack.

Definitely prefer The Pixies to The Breeders. Pixies have many songs that especially transcend the music itself. But I appreciate the Breeders, a lot.

I have a request. I was wondering if you'd be interested in making a video on Static X. Maybe the life and death of Wayne Static.

I saw them when they toured for All Nerve, and they were great. Personally, I think it's nearly as good as any of the older records. I also saw The Amps open for the Foo Fighters in the '90's, and they were awful. It seemed clear at the time that Kim wasn't the same. I think she and the rest of the band have really come into their own with the last album.

I’ll tell you what happened to The Breeders. Saw them last night and they fucking rocked.

Kim&Kelly really are *TAAAAR BABY* 's. TY for doing this one! Can you do My Life With The Thrill Kill Kult also :)
