This is better than Souvlaki. Prove me wrong.

you're right, but I can see why some songs turn people away from the album
It's pretty boring and uninspired desu
I used to think that when I started to listen to them, but when you really love Slowdive you'll realize Souvlaki is the best. (Just For A Day and Pygmalion are great too)
>>60879078
I don't know. People always praised Souvlaki for being dreamy and nice but I found Just for a Day to be a lot better at it. You could just get lost in a lot of the songs in here and Souvlaki never really did that for me.
but this is better then both
>>60879358
Why is that
>>60879411
Agreed. Rutti, Crazy For Your and Blue Skied An' Clear are the standouts for me
>>60879034
little known fact:the album cover is a woman in a dress spinning
>>60879411
nah it's good though
It's literally worse than everything else they released. I mean Souvlaki and especially Pygmalion are clearly better, but so is every single EP they ever put out.
JFAD is a boring wash of nothing noise and pretty much everything that puts people off shoegaze/ dream pop in the first place. And the only good song on it was on one of their EPs anyway
>>60879034
I'm only listening to them because they come close to the cocteau twins, and souvlaki is as close as they get.
pygmalion > souvlaki > just for a day
theyre all good tho
>>60879034
I love the guitar sound on this album, had to buy that Fx 500 because I also wanted that synth-like sound.
>>60879395
I also like it more because I enjoy to get lost in the dreamy atmospheres, but Souvlaki would be my favourite if they didn't end almost every song with a fade out, I hate how they cut off the best parts of Alison and 40 Days. >>60879411
It's definitely more interesting musically but I like shoegaze so I don't mind if their early stuff is a bit monotonous

Melon Yellow is one of their best tracks in my opinion but it goes completely overlooked usually
>>60879576
Wow that's really obvious now that you say it but I wouldn't have picked it out otherwise
