The Breeders' Mountain Battles

Today I finally gave The Breeders new album Mountain Battles a listen. It is definitely a more mellow sound than what we've come to expect from Ohio natives Kim and Kelley Deal. I want to kick myself for not hearing it sooner (album released in Spring 2008).

What is most amazing about this record is how the Breeders pretty much sound exactly the same as they ever did. The quirks, peculiarity, kinks and hiccups that once contributed to the amateurish sound on past recordings is now their recognizable style that makes this near perfect.

Tracks:
Overglazed
Bang On
Night of Joy
We're Gonna Rise
German Studies
Spark
Istanbul
Walk it Off
Regalame Esta Noche
Here No More
No Way
Its' the Love
Mountain Battles
