Kim Deal Dazzles in A Good Time Pushed

Admittedly, I wasn’t really sure what to expect from Kim Deal‘s new stuff. Sure, she’s an absolute legend, and to be fair, I’ve got few reasons to doubt her craft…still, we’ve seen some folks drop the ball on their return. This is absolutely not the case for Kim, however, as she’s dropped another remarkable single that feels as vitally important to the current industry as her work was back when that one band she was in was huge (and then that other one too). I love the build in this song, the guitars growl beneath her voice, perfectly setting up the rising action to climax at “we are having a good time.” It balances with the really special rhythmic bubbling beneath, which comes as no surprise considering her bass-playing bad-assery. Nobody Loves You More is out on November 22nd via 4AD.
