REUNION SHOWS ALL SUCK ANYWAYS!
Posted by Hartley On Nov 8, 2007

Well well well. It's true. Sofia Coppola's band of choice to aimlessly wander foreign cities to, My Bloody Valentine, is "reuniting" to play Coachella of all things. Do you hear that? It's the faint sound of a thousand hipsters pretending to be excited because this was the band that created Loveless, which in hand invented pretentious, "reverb-drenched," atmospheric shoegazer rock, and has been on more Best-Of lists than Nevermind and Ok Computer.
So yeah last year's Police, are this year's MBV. But I do love them, though. And despite these seminal fucks having nothing to do with BRM, they've still influenced like 3/4's of our roster. Here's our TOP 5 TRACKS THAT SOUND LIKE THEY COULD'VE BEEN BY MBV:
1. Songs Of Green Pheasent - "Boats"
2. Dalek - "Mellow"
3. The Besnard Lakes - "For Agent 13"
4. Michio Kurihara - "Canon in C (C is For Cicada)"
5. Bottom of the Hudson - "Fantastic Hawk"
Plz enjoy.
