Album Intro：
Breeders fans waited six years for Mountain Battles, a recording that nonetheless offers instant satisfaction, cherry-picking many of the lasting and likeable elements from the band’s three previous albums that were released across nearly two decades. Twins sisters Kim and Kelley Deal haven’t sounded as healthy and at ease since their 1994 hit 'Cannonball.' Yes, they still get those meaty hooks in you--Mountain Battles’ 'It’s The Love' begs equally for radio frequency--but some tracks suggest a future that cuts a wider swath. 'Here No More' evokes the classic country of the Carter Family while 'Regalame Esta Noche' features Spanish lead vocals by the not-usually-Spanish-speaking Kelley. Not to be outdone, Kim takes to German for the peculiar 'German Studies,' a garage rocker à la 2002’s Title TK. The rest of the songs, from the Who-like 'Overglazed,' to the techno-poppy 'Bang On,' and 'Walk It Off'--powered by a memorable bass line--are classic Breeders, who appear to be many years away from their literal last splash. --Scott Holter
