The jacket is very light and flimsy. Vinyl looks and sounds great to me. I have a very basic set up, nothing overly hi-fi, but it works. I might snag the Japanese gatefold too, for a better cover and the b-sides. Reply Notify me 1 Helpful. It's not out of the realm of possibility that we would see a repress of this remaster during the 30th ann year. One thing to note though is that next year is the 30th anniversary of the album, so there will surely be another repress somewhere. Let's just hope a certain company doesn't get a hold of it and charge 40 dollars for a single LP like they did for When The Pawn Sound quality is okay, listenable but definitely undynamic and digital sounding. However, My Bloody Valentine Loveless by no means an expert on how this album should sound as by this review you can tell I'm a very casual fan. Not that it's important but the first thing that struck me was how off the cover My Bloody Valentine Loveless, it's appears to just be two colors- black and red. Not gonna recommend this press as it sounds no better than a high quality MP3. Add all to Wantlist Remove all from Wantlist. Have: Want: Avg Rating: 4. Listened by hipp-e.

The album was recorded between February and Septemberwith vocalist and guitarist Kevin Shields leading sessions and experimenting with guitar vibrato techniques, My Bloody Valentine Loveless systemssamplersand meticulous production methods. Preceded by the EPs Glider and TremoloLoveless peaked at number 24 on the UK Albums Chartand was widely praised by critics for its sonic innovations and Shields' "virtual reinvention of the guitar". My Bloody Valentine struggled to record a follow-up to the album and broke up inmaking Loveless their last full-length release until m b v in Since its release, Loveless has been widely cited by critics as one of the greatest albums of all time, a landmark work of the shoegazing subgenre, and as a significant influence on various subsequent artists. Init was reissued as a two-CD set, including remastered tracks and a previously unreleased half-inch analogue tape version, and peaked on several international charts. InLoveless was certified silver by the British Phonographic Industry. My Bloody Valentine were scheduled to record at Blackwing Studios in SouthwarkLondon for Februaryand intended to conceptualise a new, more studio-based sound for their second album. According to Shields, "when it became clear that wasn't going to happen, they freaked". In-house engineer Nick Robbins said Shields made it clear from the outset that Robbins "was just there to My Bloody Valentine Loveless the buttons". Robbins was quickly replaced by Harold Burgon, but according to Shields, Burgon's main contribution was to show the group how to use the in- studio My Bloody Valentine Loveless. Shields said of Moulder, "As soon as we worked with him we realized we'd love to some more! During the spring ofAnjali Dutt was hired to replace Moulder, who had left My Bloody Valentine Loveless work with the bands Shakespears Sister and Ride. Dutt My Bloody Valentine Loveless in the recording of vocals and several guitar My Bloody Valentine Loveless. In MayMy Bloody Valentine settled on Protocol My Bloody Valentine Loveless Holloway as their primary location, and work began in earnest on the album, as well as a second EP titled Tremolo. The band stopped recording during the summer of to tour in support of the release of Glider. By that point, Creation was concerned by My Bloody Valentine Loveless much the album was costing. We recorded the drums in September ' The guitar was done in December. The bass was done in April. Then nothing happens for a year really. It has a song number. And… I'm trying to remember… the melody line was done in ' The vocals were ' There were huge gaps though. Months and months of not touching songs. I used to forget what tunings I'd used. The vocals were taped in Britannia Row and Protocol studios between May and Junethe first time vocalist Bilinda Butcher was involved in the recording. Shields and Butcher hung curtains on the window between My Bloody Valentine Loveless studio control room and the vocal booth, and communicated with the engineers only when they would acknowledge a good take by opening the curtain and waving. According to engineer Guy Fixsen, "We weren't allowed to listen while either of them were doing a vocal. You'd have to watch the meters on the tape machine to see if anyone was singing. If it stopped, you knew you had to stop the tape and take it back to My Bloody Valentine Loveless top. Dutt recalled: "Kevin would sing a track, and My Bloody Valentine Loveless Bilinda would get the tape and write down My Bloody Valentine Loveless she thought he might have sung". In JulyCreation agreed to relocate the production to Eastcote studio, following unexplained complaints from Shields. However, the cash-poor Creation Records was unable to pay the bill for their time at Britannia Row, and the studio refused to return the band's equipment. Dutt recalled, "I don't know what excuse Kevin gave them for leaving. He had to raise My Bloody Valentine Loveless money himself to get the gear out. Dutt later said he had been desperate to leave My Bloody Valentine Loveless project, while Creation's second-in-command Dick Green had a nervous breakdown. Green recalled, "It was two years into the album, and I phoned Shields up in tears. I was going 'You have to deliver me this record'. Shields and Butcher became afflicted with tinnitusand had to delay recording for further weeks while they recovered. Concerned friends and My Bloody Valentine Loveless members suggested this was a result of the unusually loud volumes the group played at their shows, which Shields dismissed as "Ill-informed hysteria. Publicist Laurence Verfaillie, aware of the label's inability to cover further studio bills, recalled Green's hair turning grey overnight, which she attributed to the album. With the vocal tracks completed, a final mix of the album was undertaken with engineers Dick Meaney the Jesus and Mary Chain and Darren Allison Spiritualized at the Church in Crouch End[22] [23] the nineteenth studio in which Loveless had been worked on. Shields was able to put it back together from memory, but took thirteen days to master the album rather than the usual one, to Creation's dismay. As the previously prolific band were unusually quiet, the British music press began to speculate. Shields argued that the estimated cost and Creation's near-bankruptcy were a myth exaggerated by McGee. According to Shields, "the amount we spent nobody knows because we never counted. But we worked it out ourselves just by working out how much the studios cost and how much all My Bloody Valentine Loveless engineers cost. He also claimed that the album represented only four months' work over two years. They never showed us any accounts, and then they got bought out by Sony ". While Butcher contributed about a third of its lyrics, [29] most of the music on Loveless was written and performed by Shields; according to Shields, he is the only musician on the album apart from "Touched". Bassist Debbie Googe did not perform on the album, though she received a credit. Googe said, "At the beginning I used to go down [to the studio] most days but after a while I began to feel pretty superfluous so I went down less. Kevin had a clear view of what he wanted, but he never explained it. Loveless was largely recorded in mono sound, [34] as Shields felt it important that the album's sound consisted of "the guitar smack bang in the middle and no chorus, no modulation effect". Shields aimed to use "very simple minimal effects" which often were the result of involved studio work. He stated, "The songs are really simply structured.

A Business Perspective Helsinki Metropolia University of Applied Sciences Bachelor of Business Administration International Business and Logistics 1405484 22nd March 2018 Abstract Author(s) Jose Dailos Cabrera Laasanen Title Is Rock Music in Decline? A Business Perspective Number of Pages 45 Date 22.03.2018 Degree Bachelor of Business Administration Degree Programme International Business and Logistics Instructor(s) Michael Keaney, Senior Lecturer Rock music has great importance in the recent history of human kind, and it is interesting to understand the reasons of its de- cline, if it actually exists. Its legacy will never disappear, and it will always be a great influence for new artists but is important to find out the reasons why it has become what it is in now, and what is the expected future for the genre. This project is going to be focused on the analysis of some im- portant business aspects related with rock music and its de- cline, if exists. The collapse of Gibson guitars will be analyzed, because if rock music is in decline, then the collapse of Gibson is a good evidence of this. Also, the performance of independ- ent and major record labels through history will be analyzed to understand better the health state of the genre. The same with music festivals that today seem to be increasing their popularity at the expense of smaller types of live-music events.

  • Hipster Black Metal?
    Hipster Black Metal? Deafheaven’s Sunbather and the Evolution of an (Un) popular Genre Paola Ferrero A couple of months ago a guy walks into a bar in Brooklyn and strikes up a conversation with the bartenders about heavy metal. The guy happens to mention that Deafheaven, an up-and-coming American black metal (BM) band, is going to perform at Saint Vitus, the local metal concert venue, in a couple of weeks. The bartenders immediately become confrontational, denying Deafheaven the BM ‘label of authenticity’: the band, according to them, plays ‘hipster metal’ and their singer, George Clarke, clearly sports a hipster hairstyle. Good thing they probably did not know who they were talking to: the ‘guy’ in our story is, in fact, Jonah Bayer, a contributor to Noisey, the music magazine of Vice, considered to be one of the bastions of hipster online culture. The product of that conversation, a piece entitled ‘Why are black metal fans such elitist assholes?’ was almost certainly intended as a humorous nod to the ongoing debate, generated mainly by music webzines and their readers, over Deafheaven’s inclusion in the BM canon. The article features a promo picture of the band, two young, clean- shaven guys, wearing indistinct clothing, with short haircuts and mild, neutral facial expressions, their faces made to look like they were ironically wearing black and white make up, the typical ‘corpse-paint’ of traditional, early BM. It certainly did not help that Bayer also included a picture of Inquisition, a historical BM band from Colombia formed in the early 1990s, and ridiculed their corpse-paint and black cloaks attire with the following caption: ‘Here’s what you’re defending, black metal purists.

  • Kevin Shields the Buddyhead Interview by Aaron North
    Buddyhead | http://www.buddyhead.com/music/kevinshields/ 19 Jan 2005 Kevin Shields The Buddyhead Interview by Aaron North The Icarus Line got to play with Primal Scream was in New York, and TI have to admit I was slightly disappointed at the time, because Kevin Shields wasn’t performing at the show. The word was that Kevin had to be at his brother’s wedding instead. It definitely added to the myth that I, and many other people as well, had built into our heads that Mr. Shields was some kind of mysterious recluse whose appearances could never be bargained on. The story of Kevin’s band My Bloody Valentine, and their demise, has up to this point sounded closer to folklore than something that happened less than a decade ago. Like a twisted version of the game “telephone”, My Bloody Valentine fans have perpetuated the tallest of tales ranging from master tapes of unreleased albums being set afire, to band reunions in far dark warehouses in Berlin. When The Icarus Line had the opportunity of again opening for Primal Scream, it would be a tour with them across the United Kingdom. When we encountered the band soundchecking on the first day in Glasgow, it occurred to me while I stared at them onstage, that between Kevin’s time in My Bloody Valentine, Mani’s in The Stone Roses, and even Bobby’s stint in The Jesus and Mary Chain, not to mention The Scream themselves, I was witnessing the composers of a good portion of my record collection back home.

  • Swervedriver
    Swervedriver In 1990 London's indie-rock guitar scene was developing a distinctive new psychedelic sound: swirling, dreamy, mysterious and very much of the British Isles. One band stood out by hot-wiring that sound with the subversive energy of some American bands of the era and that band was Swervedriver. They had the liquid distortion of shoegaze combined with the cool swagger of Hüsker Dü, Sonic Youth, and Dinosaur Jr - giving them a unique sound and attitude. Relocating from Oxford to London, guitarists Adam Franklin and Jimmy Hartridge, bassist Adi Vines and drummer Graham Bonnar debuted with a series of landmark Creation Records EPs, Son of Mustang Ford, Rave Down, and Sandblasted. Their full-length debut, 1991's Raise, to this day is hailed by Pitchfork as an album full of "muscular, scorching guitars" that "still bring the noise like nobody's business" with Mojo stating that Son of Mustang Ford "remains one of the most glorious tunes to emerge in the wake of the so-called grunge explosion of '89, matching Adam Franklin and Jim Hartridge's motorised guitar-weaving with a beguiling, below-the-line vocal melody and lyrics that celebrated the joy of wide-open American freeways." The band toured the album extensively, including a lengthy US tour with Soundgarden that brought their wall of sound to thousands. However with both Bonnar and Vines leaving the band not long after, the 1992 EP Never Lose That Feeling looked like it might be Swervedriver's (albeit scorching) swan song. Then in late 1992, Franklin and Hartridge demoed a new tune Duress, recruited drummer Jez Hindmarsh and set about recording a second full-length album Mezcal Head with Alan Moulder (My Bloody Valentine/Led Zeppelin), which included their biggest singles Duel and Last Train To Satansville.
