[ 4AD / CD ]
Release Date: Friday 22 November 2024
Nobody Loves You More is Kim Deal's debut album, although it's technically not her
first release under her own name - she self-released a 5-part, 10-song 7" vinyl
series in 2013, and beyond that, she's earned her stripes as early as the late 80s
with bands Pixies and The Breeders.
The long-awaited record's creation began with its oldest songs, "Are You Mine?"
and "Wish I Was" which were written and originally recorded in 2011 and included
in said vinyl series, shortly after Deal concluded Pixies' 'Lost Cities Tour' and
relocated to L.A. In the years since, the record took shape in pieces, coming to
light with a variety of collaborators, including Breeders past and present (Mando
Lopez, Kelley Deal, Jim Macpherson, and Britt Walford), as well as new friends
like Jack Lawrence (The Greenhorns) and Savages' Fay Milton and Ayse Hassan.
Tracked over the last several years, the record's last recording was helmed by
iconic engineer and Deal's close friend Steve Albini, tracking "A Good Time
Pushed" with Jim and Kelley in November 2022.
Sonically versatile and propulsively infectious, the resulting record is a celebration of Deal's unmatched artistry, nodding not only to her career highlights with celebrated bands across the alternative landscape, but also to her immovable cultural weight.
