On 22 November 2024, Kim Deal will release her new album, Nobody Loves You More. Featuring recent single ‘Coast’, the collection of 11 songs is the Dayton, Ohio resident’s first full-length album under her own name. 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, who helmed final track ‘A Good Time Pushed’ 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. Every song has a story behind it, from the winter vacations with her parents in Florida Keys (‘Summerland’), wedding band covers of ‘Margaritaville’ (‘Coast’) to her mother’s dementia (‘Are You Mine?’). All in all, the record is a celebration of Deal’s unmatched artistry, nodding not only to her career highlights with celebrated bands across the alternative landscape (Pixies, The Amps, The Breeders), but also to her immovable cultural weight influencing musicians like Kurt Cobain and Olivia Rodrigo through the generations.The announcement of “a Kim Deal solo album” seemed a bit unnecessary. After all, none of the albums she’s released with the Breeders (and the Amps, for that matter) have felt like she had in any way compromised her vision to that of her bandmates. (That’s without even acknowledging the multiple lineups the Breeders have gone through.) When reviewing the personnel on Nobody Loves You More, you’ll spot folks who are or have been Breeders (twin sister Kelley, as well as Britt Walford, Jim Macpherson, and Mando Lopez), as well as several who have not (Fay Milton and Ayse Hassan from Savages). However, from the first few seconds of the loping tempos and lush, brassy orchestration of the album-opening title track, it is immediately clear that not only is Deal not making some sort of spare, acoustic-and-voice solo album, but she’s also making music that is in a completely different universe of anything she’s done before. To be sure, her immediately recognizable voice and slightly off-kilter compositional style are both present and accounted for, but this is a record that presents itself as something more considered and decidedly less visceral than any of her previous band-focused work. Unsurprisingly, it took a while for Deal to complete the material on Nobody Loves You More; the earliest cuts here were the mellow twang of “Are You Mine?” and the sounds-like-a-Breeders-b-side “Wish I Was,” both of which were recorded in 2011 and part of a 7-inch series Deal released as a solo artist back in 2013.

Among the most surprising numbers are more aggressive cuts like the electroclash-meets-Jesus-Lizard-in-a-psychedelic-surf-shop “Big Ben Beat” and the thudding, fractured funk of “Crystal Breath,” as well as gentler numbers like the swaying exotica of “Summerland.” While surprising for the tonal and textural breadth, none of these songs seem to find Deal even breaking a sweat as she deftly shifts styles, making each of the approaches sound very much like just another facet of her musical personality. Although it’s executed well and is invigorating and challenging throughout, it’s that very range (and perhaps the decade-plus of gestation) that keeps Nobody Loves You More from ever congealing into a consistent statement beyond “Kim Deal can do a lot of interesting things.” Which, knowing Deal, was perhaps the entire point to this excellent album. – Jason Ferguson
