The official 'Ive just seen My Bloody Valentine live' thread - Page 4

I'm slightly surprised you've never actually heard them, but agree that in the big scheme of things, there's not much need to really.

atsonicpark · 07.10.2008, 08:31 AM

True. Though "Isn't Anything" and "You Made me Realize" are great little records, I don't think most of their work is really worth hearing.

Here's some cool pics though:

Is it fashionable to diss My Bloody Valentine now?

radarmaker · 07.10.2008, 02:05 PM

Yeah, didn't you get the memo? We've got Slint pencilled in for next week's sacred cow slaying.

atsonicpark · 07.10.2008, 02:39 PM

Sorry that picture didn't show up (or does it? It's not for me now), but go to http://www.ideologic.org/news/news.php and it's near the bottom. Shows MBV's 100 or so fx pedals.

Dunno if it's fashionable to insult MBV or not. Go back to any thread where I've posted about 'em -- I've always found them an important band but not deserving of the heaps of praise poured upon them. They're actually fairly inconsistent.. and I think Loveless only has a few really great songs on it.

Spiderland cover pic is so gay.

Apparently, MBV got some problems in their gig in Paris yesterday - I wasn't there unfortunately

Seems like they got over 105db and a law in France says that it's forbidden, so the sound was totally shut down five times during You Made Me Realise.
Vive la France

Heh - reminds me of a similar incident at a French Mogwai gig:

SYRFox · 07.10.2008, 03:26 PM

Haha yeah I read about that as well

PAULYBEE2656 · 07.10.2008, 03:38 PM

are you all insane or just slightly younger than i am..

loveless is a fucking classic.. easily my favourite album ever recorded. nothing sounded like that did before its release and nothing sounded like it since. its an incredible album and you should...nay must give it at least one listen......

isnt anything is also a classic as for their creation singles.. all gems...

seriously...i not spouting turgid crap for the sake of it.. please listen to these albums and then decide wheter you give a shit about mbv or not because you are missing out..

as i said it could be an age thing. i was in the midst of mid teen record buying fury when loveless came out, i bought it on day of release and it stunned me! if it wasnt for this album 95% of "indie" music would have sounded different....influencial...yes, important... fuck yes...... now getting its plaudits 18 years on justified???? yes totally.....

how many threads have we had of mbv being great.. and now we have the dissenters... im not judging people im just speaking, nay shouting from the hip.... THE GREATEST IRISH BAND EVER RECOREDED THE GREATEST GUITAR RECORD EVER... fact!

atsonicpark · 07.10.2008, 03:44 PM

i have and always will love isn't anything. Every song is fucking great.

I just find Loveless boring and plodding.. songs too simple... a shitty drum sound. Just kind of Lifeless. Though there are a few songs that absolutely genius.

Derek · 07.10.2008, 03:45 PM

Amen.

Edit: To PAULYBEE

PAULYBEE2656 · 07.10.2008, 03:47 PM

we rarely disagree adam but......................... i do agree on the drum sound.. it is a bit tinny but i can live with that!

07.10.2008, 03:48 PM

I listened to both so many times that I rarely do anymore, and Isn't Anything is by far my favourite of the two, so raw and kind of wrong-speeded. I was listening to Medicine the other day, a total good rip off of MBV back then. Does anyone know them or like them?

PAULYBEE2656 · 07.10.2008, 03:52 PM

medicine rocked! again great e.ps and one blistering album!

atsonicpark · 07.10.2008, 03:52 PM

yeah medicine were great.

07.10.2008, 03:53 PM

Yeah, they were not bad at all for a blatant MBV rip off. I'm revisiting my yoof.

I predict a Drop Nineteens revival anytime soon.

Derek · 07.10.2008, 03:57 PM

Are Loop any good?

The guy next to me at the MBV gig was telling some chick that he used to listen to them all the time on the John Peel show.

_slavo_ · 07.10.2008, 05:00 PM

yeah yeah ok ok
nevertheless both Isn't anything and Loveless are unforgettable records, I think we can all agree on this one.

MellySingsDoom · 07.10.2008, 06:28 PM

Derek - check out Loop ASAP, you really won't be disappointed.
