... but damn, My Bloody Valentines Loveless album is nice... I've had it for maybe a month or two now, but have only really gotten into it this past week... it's quite nice... hypnotic in places, kind of relaxing in some, poppy and stuff in others... good stuff!
I'm always hearing these guys mentioned with BoC though... I fail to see the connection however! Guess BoC just mentioned them as an influence or something...

It's okay. But the hype is ridiculous right now.

it's the fuzzy wuzzy wall of sound thing, the sweet little melodies bathed in warm noise. kind of BoCish, in a way.

It's good, yes. But for some reason everyone seems to be neck-deep in in a MyBloodyValentine revival at the moment.

well I've been meaning to buy it for ages, but only got around to it like I said about a month or two ago... I like it anyways...
I'm usually late getting into certain albums and stuff... but I guess it's better late then never!

Listen to "To here knows when". You can't hear BoC?

I don't think this album is as brilliant as some people make it out to be (although maybe it was a different thing to hear it just when it was released rather then now), but it's real nice nonetheless!

geogaddi was directly influenced in places, such as dawn chorus.

"Isn't Anything" is a far better album.

Loveless is so freaking good... damn.
They knocked one out of the park with that one, I mean the guitar sound, the buried vocals, the ambience... its a classic for the ages.

I remember listening to it for the first time on my walkman at a bus stop in the early springtime with my eyes closed and my face turned to the afternoon sun... everything was orange rosy psychedelic like the music and my feet were cold and I could smell earth and melting ice and it was delicious.

This is one of my top 10 records ... better you discovered it late than never.
Check out 'Dead Cities ...' by M83 for a great recent album influenced by MBV. The BoC connection is a little tenuous.

Yes this album is awesome. I got Isn't Anything a week or two ago, I like it, but it would be so much better if the production wasnt so lame.

It is great and maybe a lot of people who were not old enough at the time are enjoying it now such as myself. The best music will always be in and out of a trend because it is good.

It's a wicked album, but my favorite Valentine is by far the Ecastacy and Wine comp. Brick wall jangle rock. Loveless gets too much kudos... the rest of their stuff is rarely talked about. Isn't Anything is no slouch.

I also thought that the influence on boards of canada might be the actual mixing of the record the way that alot the detail is hidden so that you have to find it.
I like that alot.
