The Breeders Return with 4-Song EP
The Breeders, the band formed by Kim Deal of Pixies has announced plans for a new self-released EP. The record is titled Fate to Fatal and is due out April 21, 2009. It is the follow up to their 2008 studio album, Mountain Battles, and was recorded at both at a
professional studio in England and in the basement of Breeders'
singer/guitarist Kim Deal.
The plan is to self-release the disc, which Deal explained:
I started asking questions, talking to Dan
Koretzky from Drag City Records, Albini, Bob Weston, and Ivo
Watts-Russell who owned 4AD Records. And it seems that now, more than
at any other time in the past, we could put the music out ourselves -
hand-screen some cool artwork ourselves, sell the EPs at our shows and
on our website, as well as get them to traditional record stores and
other online outlets. So, we're just going to press up a thousand
twelve-inch vinyls.
Deal's other band, the Pixies, are set to perform at the Isle of Wright Festival.
