 Their musical style inspired several other alternative rock bands and musicians, and the band became one of the first alternative rock acts to experience breakthrough commercial success.

The discography of American alternative rock band The Breeders consists of four studio albums, one live album, three extended plays, ten singles and twelve music videos. Kim Deal, then-bassist of American alternative rock band the Pixies, formed The Breeders as a side-project with Tanya Donelly, guitarist of American alternative rock band Throwing Muses.
 After recording a demo tape, The Breeders signed to the English independent record label 4AD in 1989.
 Their debut studio album "Pod" was released in May 1990, but was not commercially successful.
 After the revival of the Pixies and Throwing Muses in 1990, The Breeders became mostly inactive until the Pixies' breakup in 1993.
 With a new lineup, The Breeders released their "Safari" EP in 1992, followed by their second studio album "Last Splash" in 1993.
 "Last Splash" was The Breeders' most successful album; it peaked at number 33 on the United States "Billboard" 200 and was certified platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America in 1994.
 The album spawned the band's most successful single, "Cannonball".

For Sale: Live at Maxwell's 1986 is a 2017 live album by American alternative rock band The Replacements.
 Recorded at the famous Maxwell's at the height of the band's commercial and creative arc, it is one of the few good recordings of their live performances.
 The band's only previous live album—1985's "The Shit Hits the Fans"—was a limited cassette tape release which features poor audio quality and several false starts and stops on songs.
 In 2007, bassist Tommy Stinson stated that "There are no good Replacements live recordings", in part due to a lack of high-quality recordings and in part due to the band's notoriously sloppy performances due to alcohol abuse.
 The album was produced by Bob Mehr, who wrote the 2016 biography of the band "Trouble Boys: The True Story of the Replacements".

"Best of You" is a song by American alternative rock band Foo Fighters, released as the lead single from the band's fifth studio album, "In Your Honor" (2005).
