5.0 out of 5 stars General non-descript creepiness, December 8, 1999

This gem of a CD is magic. The cut that stands out the is Safari. It is by far the creepiest and most absolutely perfect pop song on the planet. In fact, I am sure it is not even from this universe. Good things come in small packages.

5.0 out of 5 stars Required Breeding, May 12, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: Do You Love Me Now (Audio CD)

Kim Deal's writing and vocals are much more polished on this EP, but it still sounds like she's having fun. The trademarked harmonic vocals and catchy guitar riffs remain, but the songs sound fuller and more cohesive. The title track is the perfect transition between the rougher stuff on the first album and the more refined material that came later on "Last Splash." This is definitely not for collectors only - definitely worth a listen if you like the Breeders at all.

This review is from: Safari (Audio CD)

This disc was my first introduction to the Breeders way back in 1993. I was at Newbury Comics, the mecca of the Boston music scene, when Don't Call Home came on overhead. When that guitar solo hit, all conscious control over my body was taken from me. I went up to the counter and demanded to know the name of this band. Since that day, I have listened to this disc at least a thousand times and it never gets old. Recently, I saw the Breeders live at the Belly Up Tavern in Solana Beach, CA. I then broke out the Safari disc again and it sounded as fresh as the day that I first heard it in 1993. Very few pieces of popular music have the power to burn into your memory the exact moment that you first heard it. This disc did it for me. Greatest guitar solo I have ever heard. Check this disc out!!
