The Breeders – Pod LP Vinyl Record

The Breeders – Pod LP Vinyl Record

Experience the debut album by American alternative rock band the Breeders: Pod, first released on May 29, 1990, and now repressed by 4AD Records. The album features band leader Kim Deal on vocals and guitar, Josephine Wiggs on bass, Britt Walford on drums, and Tanya Donelly on guitar.

Due in part to Deal’s work with the Pixies, the album was widely anticipated, particularly in Europe. It became a critical and popular success, reaching number 22 in the UK. Critics praised its dark, sexualized lyrics, and compared it favourably to the Pixies. Nirvana’s Kurt Cobain said it was one of his favorite records, and Pitchfork ranked it number 81 on its list of the best albums of the 1990s. The cover art was designed by Vaughan Oliver and portrays a man performing a fertility dance while wearing a belt of eels.

Stand out track from the album is the band’s cover of the Beatles’ “Happiness Is a Warm Gun”, which achieves a friction that the original only hints at,and its tight sound and prominent drums.
