I'm surprised he developed an Irish accent, after having an American accent for the first 10 years of his life. Maybe he got it from his parents.

Why are fans of good music often such enormous cunts? :/

MrStompbox 2 years ago 7

u noticed that too? lol

xRxAxTxOx 2 years ago

Because liking good music usually comes with a sense of superiority over those that don't listen to their music. To each their own i say.

@MrStompbox the same reason fans of bad music are often cunts.

I dont know what you all are on... cause it's definitely not what shields is smoking. What's all this "WTF is he talking about" nonsense? I know exactly what he's talking about.

all i know when i look at shields is that he's a fucking genius

and also that he was born in queens, ny, and so i was i, so he definitely just picked up that british accent

So are you saying that... geniuses born in Queens can just picked up that "British accent"? Or perhaps Kevin picked up the accent kind of like how baby Stewie on "Family Guy" has a UK-sounding accent yet his family lives in Rhode Island.

Kevin said moving from New York to Ireland was traumatizing for him.

Briliant, yes, & probably a perfectionist.

Primal Scream was/is pretty good, but compared to MBV... - they don't. IMHO, Kevin put more 'perfection' into MBV..

MAKE ANOTHER ALBUM ALREADY!:-)

IS RIGHT!!!!

I stumble like a drunk when i talk about music. I play guitar, and consider myself to be a part of the new revolution, where music will be restored to it's former glory. I am 13 years old, and I believe I show promise as a guitarist. I hope to get a Jag sometime soon. Once I start putting vids up, people can join me in the revolution to improve music :D

I did'nt know Kevin had much input so I'll go and listen to some old Primal. But the drummer Colm o ciosog playing with the bland

american shite that is Mazzy Star.Now that is sad!

sitric100 4 years ago

Mazzy Star were a great band. Colm O Ciosog isn't playing with Mazzy Star, he's the other half of Hope Sandoval and the Warm Inventions. You are, of course, a spaz.

minedarea 4 years ago

A spaz I maybe but My Bloody Valentine wiped the floor with anything put out by scatty bland Hope and her band of session players.

sitric100 4 years ago

I wasn't comparing the two at all. MBV are based around sonic experimentation, Mazzy Star were based more around traditional songwriting. They have little in common, but I can appreciate both.

minedarea 4 years ago

I agree!.Kevin goes into the studio for two years arseing about and comes out with...Nothing!.Then goes

and joins the awful Primal Scream.What a waste!

sitric100 4 years ago 3

!!! Primal Scream Kicks ass!!! Maybe not so much their last "Country" Album, but Evil Heat and Exterminator are classics! Kevin was a strong part of both of those! As long as he is still out there making music the world is alright! I would love to see another MBV album, but won't hold my breath sadly.

Kevin Shields Looks exactly like me. It's eerie. In the video for soon, when his face is obscured by trippy effects, it looks exactly like me at times. And Kevin Shields is probably my number one musical influence, which makes it more odd. It's like I'm my own hero. Wait...maybe I am.

RembrandtPussyhorse 4 years ago

Stop fighting, please ! Children be quiet ! What's so wrong with Coldplay, Keane, Girls Aloud and James Blunt anyway ??? Of course, they are not as good as My Bloody Valentine, but so what ? Who cares ??? There's much worst that those artistes/bands so quickly criticised.

Clarity is for fools.

His music is dense and subtle.

mjd775 5 years ago 2

Hahahaha - I get this from someone who listens to a band which manages to take the soulless forumlae of people like Coldplay, Keane, James Blunt, and all those shitty christian rock acts and sound even more empty and meaningless. I don't need or care to know you - the fact that you compared a band like MBV to utter horseshit like Spiritualized is evidence of the fact that you're extremely ignorant and mentally disorientated.

Bashman 5 years ago

Ha, like I said, you know fuck all about music!! Coldplay, Keane and James Blunt all came AFTER Spiritualized!! And what the fuck has christianity got to do with any of this? You are showing yourself as the retarded one!! Fuckwit!!

mjd775 5 years ago

Isn't that even more pathetic, the fact that they came *after*? All those bands are diabolical as it is, yet they still manage to do what SpiritualiZed(worst. band. name. ever.) a million times better. They don't even need originality. Proves how utterly worthless they are. It has everything to do with it - a lot of his vacuous songs have Biblical references. Please die. Please...

He's talking about sound. Is that a hard concept to

Shields is one of the last true sonic warriors.x
