What do you think of My Bloody Valentine??
 
I think they're a really good band, their album Loveless is amazing, Isn't anything is great too what do you think?

Also, i didn't know there were so many threads about them already.. i should have checked.

great band that took me ten years too long to get into due to my misconception of the pussyfied fans of said band, and of the music contained within, but holy FUCK is it not the most sublime sonic sprawl....

sarramkrop 01.02.2009 05:50 PM

What do they sound like?

I'm sure a few will agree.

I love "Onley Shallow" so much! Its kind of haunting..

noisereductions 01.02.2009 06:25 PM

They're great. And yeah, obviously LOVELESS is their best.

Who is this band? I've no idea what anyone is talking about here. As far as I know, My Bloody Valentine is the name of a tiresome early 1980's splatter film. Why would anyone want to name themselves after that? And why are we talking about this unknown band in the first place.....surely we should be talking about the under-rated Dinosaur Jr or The Strokes?

StevOK 01.02.2009 06:31 PM

haha, porky and melly made me laugh.

My favorite song is "When You Sleep".

I really wish that the re-masters of Loveless will be released soon, or a leak will surface. They keep delaying them.

My Bloody Valentine (the movie) rules.

StevOK 01.02.2009 06:36 PM

The new 3D one?

demonrail666 01.02.2009 06:38 PM

If you look at the Loveless cover through 3d Glasses you see a slightly chubby bloke building a career out of a Dinosaur Jnr riff and a whammy bar.

greedrex 01.02.2009 06:39 PM

who?

What, Yngwie Malmsteen?

demonrail666 01.02.2009 06:48 PM

yes. him too. and J Mascis, probably.

We have ten thousand threads about them... but since I love repeating myself!!!!...

They're okay. Loveless has like 3 good songs. Isn't Anything is good. You Made me Realize is a good lil' ep. Decent band. Nothing special.

The original, Canadian movie is great though.

I honestly think that's about the fairest, most sensible assessment of MBV I've read here so far. Another case of a band not half as bad as their critics suggest or half as good as their fans insist. Same with Pavement and Dinosaur Jnr.

Love the band.

Love the Canadian film...... which is finally being released UNCUT this month! That's right folks the film will finally make it's debut (after nearly 30 years) in it's original uncensored, gore-filled version. Pick it up!

Death & the Maiden 01.03.2009 04:53 AM

Isn't Anything is great. Loveless isn't that great.
