For people who are not familiar with the 24bit 96 k wav format you will not be able to play the album unless you already have a 24bit 96 k convertor or processor. Also this is a 1.5 gigabyte file and therefore also requires high speed broadband in order to download it without problems. Do not proceed with this choice unless you are sure you have the necessary equipment.

We highly recommend you connect to the Internet via an Ethernet cable to reduce your chance of experiencing any connectivity issues during the download.

old school.

i wonder did it take 22 years because he'd go to mix it and then just end up monged on the couch.

he had to wait for the invention of broadband

 

[Jim Daniels]

Is this going to be available in record stores (Tower etc)?

 

[CinnamonBoy]

This is great so far......and a really odd experience.....it's like they got one of those bands of anonymous musicians who make music for ads that you can recognise as being a certain song but they've changed just enough notes to avoid copyright infringement, gave them Loveless and a decade and here's the result. If you know what I mean.
I ain't complaining though.

 

[Flux]

It's a collection of tracks from the mid-90's that would have been underwhelming if released as a traditional follow-up to Loveless but as a bonus comeback 21 years down the line I'm delighted with it. It's a new My Bloody Valentine album! It's great to see Shields letting go of his hangups and just putting it out there.

The 24/96 hi-res sounds incredible.

 

[hugh]

Only listened to it once so far and my first impression is the same as Flux. However, the last track is amazing. Will take it out for a proper test drive later

Taking a trip back to 1990, this time with added whammy bar.

 

[Anthony]

Calm down people, bet you all hated Loveless for about a year.

 

[shower another shower]

Never listened to them. Where's a goo place to start?

 

[shower another shower]

pretentious shite.

 

[shower another shower]

meh.

 

[ernesto]

Saw them a few years ago in the Roundhouse. Was good.
Never really got into them but looking forward to giving this new one a whirl with an unbiased open mind

 

[nlgbbbblth]

It's pretty good. Nice drums.

 

[Scientician 0.8]

I'm pleasantly surprised. I never really "got" Loveless. I didn't hate it but never saw what a lot of people saw in it. This one seems like a real grower. Only had one listen so far. I like the Asian Dub Foundation séance that is the last track.

 

[Scientician 0.8]

I think they also read the Big Beat Manifesto.

 

[dudley]

Really like it, delighted. One of the most striking things about Loveless was how cold it was, whereas this lumbers out of the traps with big beaming grins all around.

Will be fun reading the endless debate it inspires. My first thought was have the songs been presented in chronoligical order, are the first songs 20 years old and similar whilst the latter songs are brand new.

Heard the last song reallly loud whilst dozing in the couch rocking the nipper to sleep eaerlier, blew my mind

on pitchfork you can listen to all the tracks at once - whole album took <7mins. gets good around the 4.30 mark.
