Three Unreleased My Bloody Valentine Jams?
3 months ago

Three unreleased My Bloody Valentine songs. Three. You know what I know, which isn’t much, plus what you know (Johari Window lolz).  These songs evidently were recorded sometime between Isn’t Anything and Loveless, and for whatever reason, surfaced just last week. If anyone has more info on this, give me a shout in the comments.The [...]

ATP Celebrates 10th Anniversary; If My Mom Had It Her Way, There'd Be a Cosmic Bowling Party and a Jonas Brothers Birthday Cake

Let's see if this quote holds true.[For those that aren't interested in the deta...

Song of the Day: My Bloody Valentine - "Soon"
6 months ago

My Bloody Valentine closed out their seminal 1991 shoegaze album Loveless with something shocking: an extremely danceable track called "Soon". Loveless was a record-length exploration of noise and melody masterminded by guitarist Kevin Shields. On it, Shields combines the quavering tremolo tones of surf guitar with layers of Marshall amp distortion. The effect is the auditory equivalent of rapi...

Interlude: MBV
about 1 year ago

During “You Made Me Realise,” the last song of My Bloody Valentine’s second show at New York’s Roseland Ballroom, the venue grew eerily quiet. In actuality, the band was creating punishing waves of feedback, but with earplugs stuffed in firmly, it felt like the eye of a storm. The atmosphere was foreign to a rock concert. Instead of exultation, there was serene anticipation.Fans of the

My Bloody Valentine

[09-27-2008] 1991. I was five years old in 1991. I had barely begun developing long-term memories, let alone an understanding of music. Had someone then told me this would be the last time My Bloody Valentine would tour until I got out of college, I would have thrown my toy at them and ran off to find my parents, calling that person "weirdo" in the process. Seventeen years have passed, and now ...

MBV Play "To Here Knows When" Live, Go Digital
about 1 year ago

It's pretty difficult not to get cynical about the number of reunion tours and records over the past couple of years, but if anyone's doing it gracefully, and still feels vital and relevant while doing it, it's My Bloody Valentine. I was lucky enough to catch them on their Loveless tour with the equally successfully reunited Dinosaur Jr. when I was knee-high to a grasshopper -- judging from thi...
