The Explosive Story of The Breeders & Last Splash

1993 was quite the year for Alternative Rock. Still in the afterglow of Nevermind changing everything, weird and wonderful music that only a couple of years prior would’ve gone unheard, then a product of the underground, now controlling the airwaves and taking over MTV. [“Start Choppin’,” “Today,” “Creep,” “No Rain,” “Low,” “Loser”] But perhaps the best and most unexpected example of subterranean chart pop was The Breeders and their joyously bizarre hit “Cannonball.”

Songwriter Kim Deal had made her name as the underutilised bassist in alt rock pioneers Pixies, but here she teamed up with with her twin sister Kelley Deal, Josephine Wiggs and Jim Macpherson, and conceived an album of surf-rocking noise-popping goodness. Bursting with more creative left-turns and oddball hooks than many bands fit into a whole career. Explosive and shambolic in equal measure, This is how The Breeders made Last Splash.
