Kim Deal – “Crystal Breath” [Video]

Kim Deal announces her debut solo album, Nobody Loves You More, due November 22nd on 4AD. Today she shares “Crystal Breath,” a delicious dose of distortion filled with pulsating beats and fuzzy riffs. Accompanying the track is a video by art director Alex Da Corte.

Nobody Loves You More is Kim Deal’s debut album although it’s not the first time she has gone solo – she self-released a five-part, ten-song seven-inch vinyl series in 2013. In keeping with Deal’s meticulous approach to her art, the album was refined over several years. Its oldest songs (“Are You Mine?” and “Wish I Was”) were written and originally recorded in 2011 shortly after Deal came off the Pixies’ ‘Lost Cities Tour’ and relocated to Los Angeles (early versions of those songs were included in said vinyl series); the last recording for Nobody Loves You More took place in November 2022 with legendary engineer and close friend Steve Albini at his Electrical Audio studio in Chicago. Along the way she has brought in a variety of collaborators from Breeders past and present (Mando Lopez, twin sister Kelley Deal, Jim Macpherson, Britt Walford), to Raymond McGinley (Teenage Fanclub), Jack Lawrence (Raconteurs) and Savages’ Fay Milton and Ayse Hassan. Nobody Loves You More was mixed by Marta Salogni and mastered by Heba Kadry.

Nobody Loves You More will be released digitally and on CD, cassette (Bandcamp only), standard black vinyl, Florida Orange vinyl (indie retail only) and Dazzling Galaxy vinyl (4AD & artist store only). For pre-order information, head HERE.
