i went through the album for the first time today. infact i just heard of the band online less then and hour ago. im really glad i got to listen to this, im going to need a hard copy of this tomorrow.
@Messagedepaix - lots of shoegaze was really repetetive. Most of us were completely tripping right the absolute fuck out of our heads at the time and just wanted to sink into it and have our heads blown off by colossal amounts of head-blastingly loud beautiful sound with expanded sensory capacity because our analytical functions were shut off. Ahhh, the high, the love.... it was a lot of fun.
Luckily I got the chance to attend their gig 3 years ago, this song crushed bones live, the counterpoint of noise/melody was 1000x bigger than on the album, it was like one of the guitars screeched a wall of grinding noise all the time
Dunno if it's just me, but i feel like Deftones could have been inspired by this band. Not trying to get into a silly interwebz debate, just my opinion
I've come to think that Loveless is probably the greatest album ever recorded... I mean, where you can find songs like this, or like "Only Shallow", or "Sometimes" on the very same album??
word vrem is an idiot how could they rip off coldplay. matter of fact some bands are 's influenced by this band. this is one of the must have rock cd's of the 90's there a few others.
@royalnash actually I am just a troll trying to piss you off, and clearly I have succedded! I come from 4 chan where we get LULZ from silly people like you who take our flame bait. now because I have pwned you I win internets, and you lose, good day sir!
@imdaman0000 hey man no matter what age great music is great music. im an old bugger now but at yr age i discovered the scientists 'blood red river' and husker du's cover of 8 miles high with my 11 yr old brother. great time to find amazing music out there!!
Saw them in Denver in 2008. i refused to wear the ear plugs they pass out before the show. My ears were ringing after the show but I did not care. In fact they were ringing for days. Amazing performance.
I herd this song a couple months ago and it sounded like messy, fuzzy guitar and i could barley hear the singer. But then i googled Shoegaze music. AND NOW I FREAKIN LOVE THIS SHIT
go choke on a turd. first of all there's no such thing as a "cool hipster", that's an oxymoron. second of all hipsters don't listen to MBV. shoegaze fans yes, hipsters no. wrong category. get your facts straight
After all these years, I think I've accepted this to be MBV's best tune. It starts off like something a Madchester band would do, but then that classic MBV wall of sound erupts any motion of Madchester sound. It is the band's most progressive track.
When it came out I thought it was so amazing that it would be the future of music, but it turned out that Nirvana was. I guess anyone who wants to emulate this record has the problem that even if they do a great album they cannot top this. Truly wonderful ambition and execution.
The future of this music is now. Virtually every indie band that isn't going the "world music" route (and a few who are) owe a lot to MBV. Alot of people are trying to basically make this album again, and it just wont be the same.
@bnugia2 Yeah, especially Blown a Wish and To Here Knows When really give you a surreal, dream-like experience then. The Tremolo EP is also very good when you're high :)
Went to see this lot at the Roundhouse a couple of years back. Literally took the fucking roof off.
When they played the encore with You Made me Realise it was so loud and full-on that almost everybody had their hands on their ears. I went down to get a beer at the bar and loads of people were leaving. I lent back against the bar with my pint, looked up to where i'd been sat to witness my mate going fucking nuts nearly falling over the balcony.
I love this but it puts me in a time of great saddness , people around me passed, and my best friend moved cross country and havent been able to find her in 14 years
One of my favorite songs of the 90s. Man, this band influenced a lot of people with like at least 75% of the musicians out right now don't even realize it.
Yep, Billy Corgan like this album so much he got Alan Moulder to mix Siamese Dream. Billy Corgan like alot of shoegaze like Ride and Slowdive. I read that in Rolling Stone or some magazine a long time ago. Man, I'm old. At least I grew up on music like this.
you're actually younger than me but hey I agree with you we had some good music growing up. MTV really did play music videos at one time from what I can recall.
Ok, I am a year younger though I still remember it all. And the big thing is that there wasn't Youtube back then. Only radio and 120 Minutes. No cell phones and Internet. Those were some of my favorite days in life. Don't get me wrong, I love some music and the tech today. But, I really dig the this stuff from back in the day because it takes me back. I think that's why people still dig this stuff even today.
Well, i dont know if any of these bands were influenced by each other, but if, I think MBV were influenced by sonic youth, since sonic youth was formed earlier
Sonic Youth were around in the 80's, so I'm gonna say other way around.
On a second note, I've never listened to these guys before, and I have to admit I've even bashed them without listening to them (calling them "Emo fags" because of the name), which I'm sort of ashamed of doing, because this is actually pretty damn good.
Soon, my bloody valentine's just tomorrow.
