Today's lasting forever

At least work-wise, ugh. Something about IT security audits make managers and such ultra-tense, especially when the auditors basically announce that they are going to rake us over the coals in areas we've not even been audited before.
Right now, the only thing that's improving my mood is going through the Today Forever EP by Ride, a wonderful 4-song nugget that catches Ride at the height of their powers. And lookie here, some lovely person on YouTube posted the videos for all four songs. Not that they're a treat visually, mind ...
Dig the bass line on "Unfamiliar", something that usually isn't at the fore for most Ride songs.
Check out the Andy Bell vocal turn on "Beneath".
The hazy jangle of "Sennen" is especially good at loosening the knot in my forehead right now.
And finally, "Today slows down to a crawl, and lets Andy and Mark's sweet harmonies shine.

OK, so maybe this is only fo rmy benefit. Having notification being all hinky isn't helping. :(
Dale, This is good stuff. I haven't watched the vids, but I listened. **Sennen** is glorious, I listened twice. I hear echoes of **Yo La Tengo, Cloud Cult** & a smidgen of **Sonic Youth**. Did I mention I like Sennen a lot? (I'm listening again, so I have to ramble a bit more.) **??Unfamiliar?? recalls Revolver era Beatles**. These guys play a confident mature rocknroll I can sink my teeth into.
Did I mention how much I like **Sennen**? 'Cause I meant to.
So, you like Sennen huh? Sweet!
How'd you guess?
