B i o g r a p h y (by Stephen Thomas Erlewine & Heather Phares)
One of alternative rock's most promising — and frustrating — bands, the Breeders were conceived initially as a way for Pixies bassist Kim Deal and Throwing Muses guitarist Tanya Donelly to let out some suppressed creative energy and to take a break from being the second bananas in each of their main bands. Deal and Donelly both played guitar, leaving bass for Josephine Wiggs of Perfect Disaster. Taking their name from the group Deal led with her twin sister, Kelley, in their teens, the Breeders combined the spareness of Throwing Muses with the shifting dynamics and warped pop sensibilities of the Pixies. Pod, their critically acclaimed debut album, was released in 1990. Two years later, the group delivered Safari, a four-song EP that found the band getting more muscular and melodic. Soon after its recording, Donelly left the Breeders to form her own group, Belly. Kim Deal brought in her sister Kelley as her replacement. By this time, their permanent drummer was Jim MacPherson, who was billed as "Mike Hunt" on Safari. 1992 also saw the group play its first high-profile gigs, opening for Nirvana on their European tour. As the Breeders were working on their new album in the beginning of 1993, the Pixies split, leaving Kim Deal able to pursue the Breeders full-time. Released late in the summer of 1993, Last Splash was a hazier, more disjointed continuation of the hard pop of Safari. With the sonic collage of "Cannonball," the Breeders had a crossover hit that catapulted the group into stardom; within a year, the album had gone platinum and the band had a prime spot on 1994's Lollapalooza tour. That year, the group also released the limited-edition 7" Head to Toe and Divine Hammer singles that year, both of which confirmed the Breeders as a quirky, artistically willful group that was nevertheless in tune with the commercial pop tastes of the early '90s. Just as quickly as success hit the band, the Breeders went on a sudden hiatus, partly due to exhaustion from the rapid nature of their fame and from their extensive touring. Late in 1994, Kelley was arrested for drug possession and was sent to a rehab clinic in Minnesota; the rest of the band went their separate ways while she recuperated. Wiggs played with musicians around New York, ultimately forming the Josephine Wiggs Experience with them; Kim returned to Dayton with MacPherson, learned how to play the drums, and continued writing songs. By early 1995, Kim had an album's worth of new material ready to record. Though she considered recording them on her own, Deal decided to assemble a backing band of MacPherson and other Dayton-area musicians, including Nathan Farley and Luis Lerma of the Tasties. Not surprisingly, the Amps — originally called Tammy & the Amps — sounded like a rougher, lo-fi version of the Breeders; their gigs and their 1995 album Pacer emphasized the loose, charming spontaneity of Deal's style.
Though the Breeders' break was supposed to be temporary, it ended up lasting far longer than the band or its fans could have expected. Indeed, the lineup that recorded Last Splash never regrouped: Wiggs recorded with the Josephine Wiggs Experience and later formed Dusty Trails with Luscious Jackson's Vivian Trimble; after Kelley completed her rehab, she formed her own solo project, the Kelley Deal 6000. She toured and released an album with this group, 1996's Go to the Sugar Altar, which reflected on addiction of all sorts in a very Breeders-esque manner. By that year, however, Kim reclaimed the Breeders name and played some California dates with the band, which was basically the Amps' lineup with the addition of violinist Carrie Bradley (who played on Pod). In 1997, the Breeders played the Tim Taylor Memorial Benefit Concert — in honor of Brainiac's singer/keyboardist, who was killed in a car accident earlier that year — with that group's drummer Tyler Trent replacing MacPherson, who later joined Guided by Voices. Later that year, Kim went into the studio in one of many frustrated attempts to make the third Breeders album. However, the group's low profile didn't mean that it didn't have any hits; a sample from "Cannonball" used in the Prodigy's worldwide smash "Firestarter" earned Kim songwriting credits — and royalties. By early 1998, Kelley had rejoined the band and the duo continued to write and record songs, though the only song to surface from any of their sessions was a cover of 3 Degrees' "Collage," which appeared on the soundtrack to 1999's big-screen adaptation of The Mod Squad. Though a new Breeders album was hotly anticipated later that year — and then in 2000 — it didn't arrive. In 2000, Kim and Kelley spent time in the studio with Steve Albini; late that year, the Breeders played their first gig in over three years (and Kim's first show with Kelley in over six) at a free, secret show in Los Angeles. Once again, the Breeders' lineup had changed, with bassist Mando Lopez, guitarist Richard Presley (both formerly of Fear), and drummer Jose Medeles backing the Deal sisters. The group reconvened in the studio with Albini in 2001, finally completing an album's worth of songs. The Breeders began a flurry of activity in 2002, beginning with a club tour that winter and the release of the Off You and Huffer singles and their long-awaited third album, Title TK, that spring. The group embarked on more extensive tours of Europe and the U.S. after the album's release. After a quiet 2003, Deal was once again in the news in 2004 when the Pixies announced they were reuniting for tours of North America and Europe, and possibly to record another album.

Title TK
**** Thanx a lot to Joe for these lyrics ***
Little Fury Round up, holler girl. Ah, I will sing. Title TK, if I don't black out. Dumb made for fucking and missing from the party. That boy spun out. Hold what you've got. While Xenia twists up the sky, Akron flakes out. Grindcore, little fury, I feel hot tire. Why is it floating in my beer? Hold what you've got. My big drum on your big face, The one-eyed jazz as hickeys fade. Round up, holler girl.. We'll all need bigger uniforms. It's been a few days And I know I will have spun out. Hold what you've got. My big drum on your big face, The one-eyed jazz as hickeys fade. Grindcore, little fury, if I don't black out. Hold what you've got.
London Song Victory's a blue and bruisin' voice. I'm leaking pure white noise. Mercy here gets meaner overnight. It's Jersey sheer, it's outta sight. Misery's fun, I'm kissing everyone. I gotta hold my tongue.
Off You I've laid this island sun a thousand times. I'm on it, but I'm going strange. This island's chills and shell cover me With winded rock And skies I've yet to see. I tried! I even sent in friends. They did it as a favor 'cause I'm not that way. I am the autumn in the scarlet. I am the make-up on your eyes. I land to sail, island said. Yeah, we're movin'. Yeah, we're movin'. This island's sun I've laid a thousand times. Fortune me, fortune me of all my mistakes. I think I lent you late. But I've never seen a starlet or a riot or the violence of you. I land to sail, island said. Yeah, we're movin'.
The She
Ripped off, you smoked the Bible. Rolled it up, your last breath hot on my back. You get me started, try to get somewhere You move so slow, you're not even here. Dear traveller, It's my death, my rhythm, my arithmetic. I got used to nobody riding in the back. Sorrow blowin' through the vents, I'm over Houston. You're over the night we met. Dear traveller, The she scared electricity Where no human carries a map. You say you gotta burn to shine, But every prism unwinds. A road to ruin and this ticket's mine. Dear traveller
Too Alive
I took off! When will will make no way steal it, Like I found speed on the mic. I can't shut up. We're street illegal. Red hot in ports, swinger. The thoughts of scene a crime, Steal and all race out of my mind. I give up! We reckless op'ed and in a hot import, Now words I'll always say. Since I found speed on the mic, I can't shut up. To girls that love to haunt, the U.S is made To streak her letterman back and forth.
Son of Three
I got an empty case of wip-its No more time on the meter. Daybreak, about face, I think I'm comin' Cross another county line Are we there? Convertible cooking with nitrous, Crackin' in the air. I am the sign of Go. While last nights stars were high, Now they're popping in the sky. And the band is jammin' in. Daybreak, I don't like it. Better tonight, better for you. Buzzing with flourescence, I don't know what it wants from me. If I find the door, I am the son of Go. And the band is movin' in. That's what you get. That's what you get When there's no time left on the meter. You get an empty case of wip-its And a boyfriend with a beeper.
Put On A Side
Better I Better I stayed up Better mono Put on A side.
Full On Idle Say you're one man's taste "Want what?" Fall and break We've seen the dream, folks, in our day What? Fought The Father the Pope Finally sent away Warden, lock it Free love's fought our battles thru the day We were full on idle, A lot of them say, "Obey your colorist, Bleach it all away Free reign, good rest Break, every brunette in the way When we're full on idle, A lot of them say, "Obey your violence" Well, It's kinda late Say you're one man's date Want WHAT? fall and break We were full on idle, A lot of them say, "Obey your violence, Look close Hate Tide all white Row on the glass surf He pulled the paddle Okay with me In silence What I'd like to do With your violin And it's bow
Sinister Foxx
No one break for me, I just go life. I'm in beer class every Thursday night. I was choppered out of sea life, Bad advice filled the air. Valour, ready, right? Go on, get the mayor. Jumped tank and leavin' broth of thieves. Has anyone seen the iguana? No one broke for me, I just o life. I'm in cedars every single night. Swarmed and choppered out of sea life, Bad advice fills the air. Has anyone seen the iguana?
Forced to Drive
Life forced to drive us, Spent the whole trip Tryin' to go my way. Pity for me, tattoo a wow. What a mile! Where are tonight's crimes going? Innocent, I caught a lawman's daughter Who tried turnin' it up to unwind. Between the soles, under the stories, Waiting below - a star-hit clock. If I Offer to drive, Just know where your lifeline's going.

meet I slide to him, my thigh's sticking on the seat I'm a dark star I'm done I glow in the headlights as they hit the street I am blinding I'm walking with a killer And I'm gonna need that ride We rolled through the night Through the cornfields of East 35 I would not survive I didn't know it was my time to die I'm going out I'm a dark star I'm done I glow in the headlights as I hit the street All the way home he kissed me Howl at the Summit Wasting with leisure and stale as a corpse I crash through the port You may have spirit but I'll never hear it I polish my scales and get nearer and nearer All through the country (Light it up) All of it falling All through the country (Light it up) All of it falling Howl at the summit to just keep 'em coming You may have spirit but I'll never hear it You jump off but can you clear it All through the country (Light it up) All of it falling All through the country (Light it up) All of it falling All through the country (Light it up) All of it falling All through the country (Light it up) All of it falling Archangel's Thunderbird When the everywhere-eye asks you “Who is the emperor of the sky” Take the Archangel's Thunderbird Go to Edgar Allen In the tower of sleep He'll tell you a story Which makes you to creep The echo of your cries is falling so deep Rent a destroyer and sail to Cape Cod There lives a lion, they call him God There is your elevator to Eden But a hole in the sky In shock-corridors standing People with their eyes in their hands But they don't understand Don’t get with your confessional Flare into the vaulting flight of stairs Baiting soldiers sleeping in melting house of wax Why is the audience not taking the insurrection ax Thousands of windows burst open And the alarm bells are broken Dawn: Making an Effort Smiling skulls tonguing the burn Our haunted throats rally Rally Smiling skulls running us down Get it together Rally Rally Raptured flowers One wild sprawl Untethered Making an effort Making an effort Captured throats Dawn running us down Running us down Dawn running us down Running us down Dawn running us down Running us down Skinhead #2 I need spit To crush these beetles on my lips They run Run the phonics from my hand to the Tick Tick If I find one good mallet in my sigh It won't last long Tough kids love sad songs They sing along Sing for me We cleared the pine And saved it for the biggest shrine Made for paler men For them to sink in To take the night We dosed the pharaohs And pulled the heist Filled our lungs And blow out the sun And sing sad songs Sing for me Sad songs Tough kids love to sing along they are free They are free Blues at the Acropolis I moan over the marble steps Junkies of the world lay across the monuments I climb and blister on the mount Drunks take a piss where heroes once bled out Capital sister, I climb and I blister on the mount Gods offer beer and hope where heroes once bled out I got the blues at the Acropolis I kick up dirt The men stop and hiss I groan up and down the steps Junkies of the world draped across the monuments Capital sister, I cry and then I blister on the mount I got the blues at the Acropolis I've got the blues at the Acropolis
Non albums tracks 900 With tables and chairs And holy books for all With knives and forks And a thousand miles to go But brother, I love you 900 to go One down 900 One down Twenty five to go Bad dog is barking Where snow meets the sea 900 to go One down 900 When it's time Brother Bury me In my clothes

I can't help it Today I passed you on the street And my heart fell at your feet I can't help it if I'm still in love with you Somebody else flows by your side And she looks so satisfied I can't help it if I'm still in love with you A picture from the past came slowly stealing As I brushed your arm and stood so close to you Suddenly I get that old time feeling I can't help it if I'm still in love with you It's hard to know when other's lips have kissed you And held you just the way I used to do Heaven only knows how much I missed you I can't help it if I'm still in love with you [2x] Lords of the thighs Down to ???, just to socialize I'm waiting for my girls When you caught my eyes You've got the way to make a man Honey, you've got to understand I'm the manchild Lord of your thighs Well Lord, my God What do we got here? Your fashion across the floor Make it perfectly clear You're the bait And you're the hook Someone take a look I'm the manchild Lord of your thighs You must have come here to find it You've got that look in your eyes Although you really don't like it I am the lord of your thighs You must have come here to find it You've got that look in your eyes Although you really don't like it I am the lord of your thighs
