My Bloody Valentine - mbv

[marf]

she found now is a fav. id love to hear it live and very loud..they must be from the school of the extremely loud live acts like mary chain and spiritualized.

Money well spent. Get the LP bundle. Those LPs are limited.

 

Umm, what's telling you that they're limited, besides our finite nature?

 

 

from the main page:

 

 

The vinyl will be limited due to manufacturing restrictions.

I wore ear plugs when I saw them in 08, and it was still punishingly loud, haha.

[Jaffa]

They blew up the PA system when I saw them at Newcastle University back in 1992.

I didn't.

 

I had tinnitus for 2 weeks afterwards. totally worth it though.

LOL, so the guy at the pressing plant, after a certain number of copies is just like "NO MORE FOR YOU!"

Santa Monica? That's the one I was at.

[Tauhid]

Yep. I thought the Civic Center was an odd choice, unless that really was the only venue they could get at the time.

That's fucking awesome.

[Richie Sombrero]

god damn vinyl nazis..... This album is great, so happy. Just happy for the first time in ages.

[Rubin Farr]

gave it a couple more stoned listenings (as proper) and still an amazing piece of production. Chinese Democracy this ain't.

[danshoebridge]

Still can't quite believe that

 

1. This has been released and I'm listening to it.

2. It's as good as it is.

 

Roll on the new ae album, 2013 is off to a pretty good start music-wise.

[Solo Strike]

So happy for a) them and b) me that they got it finished and released. It sounds AMAZING production wise. With the high quality version, you crank it up and it's astoundingly physical without being painful on the ears. Today has been a happy day

[Guest nene multiple assgasms]

rhythmically, I'd say it's superior to their early stuff. in terms of song writing and riffs, probably not. the production is of course amazing, though. I like how the tracks get progressively more experimental to the end.

[modey]

I downloaded the 320kbps version and didn't notice any 128kbps artifacts.. maybe I'll see if I can get hold of the WAV version and compare.

[Drix]

So far sounds like a great album that fits quite well into their old material, but there are some songs that just doesn't click. "In Another Way" is one of them.. it's just now working as well as the others.

[kaini]

ohhhhhhh gorgeous.

[kaini]

'if i am' is so beautiful. jesus.

 

edit: i swear there's a total boo radleys vibe off 'new you'.

 

edit2: holy mother of fuck that weird delay thing on the guitar in 'in another way'... fuck. only kevin shields could do that.

 

edit3: rockabilly stomp shit on 'nothing is'! *cums*

[Guest zaphod]

let us know what you decide

[Guest bitroast]

I'm seeing them melbourne sideshow 22nd.

I want to see them!!

[syd syside]

THIS ALBUM IS A MIRACLE

 

[Guest zaphod]

feel like there's a bit of a stereolab influence on a few tracks. not a bad thing.

[kaini]

i think it's more of a general mid-nineties zeitgeist... there are some lovely melodies that remind me of stereolab, but there's also fuzz and distortion combined with them that are extremely reminescent of giant steps era boo radleys...

 

 

and some stuff that's really really cocteau twins on 'is this and yes'. and some slowdivey bits here and there. but i guess that most of those bands wouldn't have made those albums if it wasn't for loveless. so a weird sort of circular feedback.

[GraveGlitcher]

Just picked up the vinyl package on a whim. I've never really gave these guys a listen before but after reading all this WATMM hype I figured....why not ,I'm just going to give the WAV's a listen now.
