Kim Deal & Co revisit their classic album Last Splash in refreshingly unpolished style.
Fresh from a tour of US arenas with Olivia Rodrigo, The Breeders seem a band that are ripe for rediscovery. And so it proves here at the O2 Academy Leeds with a healthy contingent of youthful Generation Z converts mingling with the diehards now in their fifties who were there for Kim Deal & Co in their initial flush of fame back in the early 1990s.
Night of Joy, from 2008’s Mountain Battles, is hushed with Kim’s voice sounding sweet and vulnerable. There’s a moment of levity when MacPherson comes to the front of the stage, saying that Kim wanted him to talk to the audience to “improve my people skills”, and he recalls that the last time the band played in Leeds it was “somewhere really sticky” and he “lost a pair of shoes”.
