I'm curious, though MBV were never my favorite band of that era to begin with (saw them all, and both Ride and Slowdive kicked MBV's ass live. Verve were unstoppable in the "A Storm In Heaven" era as well).

I'm sure it will be meticulous and show effort, and be worth hearing.
I don't think it will have aged any worse than GYBE's sidelong crescendos served up with a side of insufferable self-righteousness.

they finished mastering it on the 21st i believe. i'm really excited. i doubt anyone expects it to be as good as loveless, but it should be a good listen nonetheless.

live version of a new song

should be out in like two days, according to Pitchfork.

I will give it a good listen

Yeah Kevin said that last night at the gig. The sound at the venue was atrocious though, I think it was the worst time I have seen them. New song sounded good though. Also Thurston and J mascis were there, spoke to Thurston for a bit at the bar.

Wow, this is happening. Fuck me! I am totally down.

What does "out" mean? Out on iTunes? Soundcloud and spotify? Or should I be planning on stopping by the record store on Wednesday?

beautiful song, although apparently (and thankfully) not representative of the album's sound as a whole. it is by all accounts as extreme as has been speculated, this information coming from not only Shields but Debbie, Colm, Bilinda, the engineer and Douglas Hart.

cannot fucking wait.

the guardian article says that it'll come out the MBV website and later a Vinyl release with a cd included?

"We are preparing to go live with the new album/website this evening. We will make an announcement as soon as its up."

The new site's live now but getting hammered...

if someone d/ls it please send it to me i will do anything and be eternally in your debt http://mybloodyvalentine.org/

That's as far as I got before the site tanked...

yeah its the same for everyone. fuck.

but according to the forum they did plan for a server crash in advance.

so hopefully they have just briefly taken down the site and are soon to reup it.

Dude, what the fuck? Is it still not fixed? This is not the kind of thing you out off! Get it together, webmaster or whatever at MBV site.
