    Slowdive is simply one of the greatest bands in music history. How a band could return after a 22-year absence and make an album as great as anything they've done, is so unfathomable and triumphant-it's nothing short of a miracle. What a gorgeous song!

      My Bloody Valentine did exactly the same too somehow. Two decades to recharge the batteries... Autolux released 3 albums over their 20 years together... I guess good music takes time to brew.

      @@elemkay5104 - Slowdive had their career cruelly cut short by fickle music listeners, critics, and quickly abandoned by their label, leaving their releases to collect dust in bargain bins for many years. My Bloody Valentine never suffered nor fell out of favor with music listeners, ever. For Slowdive to make their comeback took great courage and fortitude.

      I completely agree. There have been so many bands that went on a long hiatus over the years and whenever they came back, most of them seemed to want to go in a completely different direction. So refreshing to have a band stay true to their sound with just enough of a twist to make their sound more current and contemporary. An incredibly hard thing to do and a sign of genius and remarkable musical craftsmanship. Kudos to you Slowdive.

    the only word that does justice to the art on display here is - sublime! From the balance in the mix, to the engineering and blending of the guitars; the space created in the song, to the lyrics, to the performance, to the atmospherics - seriously, no band should be this good, and yet, here we are.

    A little gem for new (and maybe even some longtime) Slowdive fans is to check out their song 'Red Five' from around the Pygmalion era. As it's a bonus track/b-side, I came across it late in life but it's a stunning piece and quite a joy for those who like the steady Slowdive cerebral pieces like 'Avalyn 2' and other soft, slow-burn tracks of theirs.

    They are just way stronger live than in the studio
