Is any of My Bloody Valentine's early discography worth listening to?
no its shitty twee pop with a gothic tinge
different singer and everything too
Never Say Goodbye is a great song
>>60782742
yes
I honestly like the new record and sunny sundae smile
>>60782742
Hell yeah, and there isn't much of it so it's easy to check out.
It's interesting seeing how they develop from the utmost conformity to such a radical and creative album as Loveless.

The Strawberry Wine and Ecstasy EPs are alright.
Never Say Goodbye from Strawberry Wine is a good song:

he looks like graham coxon there
>>60782742
Are you fucking kidding? Sunny Sunday Smile is easily they're best work.
>>60782742
Yeah, I think so. It's a lot more lighthearted and fun than loveless. Their You Made Me Realise EP sorta falls back into that same feeling, but with better writing.
Sunny Sundae Smile
>Really poppy, lots of twang
>The guitar sputters which is nice, haven't really heard many like it in other bands or even later MBV
The New Record
>A little bit nosier, akin to JAMC but not quite as "in your face"
>Has some elements that's found in Isn't Anything/Loveless - guitar melodies that are quiet in the mix but still add to the overall texture
Geek and This is Your Bloody Valentine are kinda shitty, IMO. Kinda Doors-ish but not as good.

I like listening to their old live gigs, usually bad quality but has more energy than the EPs. I used to have a bootleg from a 1985 and a 1986 gig, will try to find
yeeeesss
>>60782742
Glider and Isn't Anything are GOAT

In that Strawberry Wine live vid you link, wasn't there the full set of that very same show on youtube a couple of months ago? I tried looking for it the other day and i couldn't find it ;___; Bilinda was such a qt playing her tamboruine.

Hopefully somebody finds it or reuploads it if it got taken down, I love their shows from this era.
>>60785178
I might've found it, but its set to private

Fuck, it is that one. I hope that this person un-privates it. It's nice to see the full set which somewhat has color
thanks for tracking it down tho
>>60782761
Somebody's been listening to Chris OTT :^)
THORN is one of MBV's best songs.

>All this Sunny Sundae Smile love ITT.
anything from before 1987 is pretty shit. but stuff like Ecstasy and Strawberry Wine are super underrated.
>>60785929
I mean it's great and it is also one of my favorite releases by them, sorry for being vague.
>>60782742
Made me Realize is an awesome EP
Am I the only one who doesn't give a shit about shoegaze mbv but loves their old stuff?
All the EP's From You Made Me to Tremolo are great.
>>60786143
You can't be the only one but you're definitely the minority.
