I've been listening to My Bloody Valentine's great record "Loveless" quite a bit lately. And I picked up this little book to find out more about how it was made, and what exactly happened to the band. A fascinating story. An artistic obsession pushed to the limit. With unbelievably breath-taking results.
Kevin Shields is an amazing guitar player. He really re-thought how to play a guitar, how to make a big, oceanic sound. And Bilinda Butcher's voice is haunting, beautiful. Here's a nice clip of the band playing Fuji in 2008. Exquisite.
