Mando Lopez and Kim Deal, two of the Breeders who recorded Title TK.

Title TK is the third studio album by American alternative rock band the Breeders, released on May 10, 2002 in Japan, and May 20–21 in other countries. The album—whose name means "title to come" in journalistic shorthand—generated three singles: "Off You", "Huffer", and "Son of Three". Title TK reached the top 100 in France, Germany, the UK, and Australia, and number 130 in the US. After unsuccessful recording attempts in 1997, singer and songwriter Kim Deal began sessions two years later with engineer Steve Albini in Chicago. Deal's sister Kelley, Fear members Mando Lopez and Richard Presley, and musician Jose Medeles joined the line-up. The group continued recording with Albini in 2001. Title TK was compiled from the output of these sessions and supplemented with two tracks recorded in Los Angeles with engineers Andrew Alekel and Mark Arnold. Commentary on the album has included discussion of its minimal instrumentation and the interjection of unexpected sounds. Reviewers have described the lyrics on the songs as unconventional and dark, and noted the prominence of vocal harmonies between the Deal sisters. (Full article...)
