my bloody valentine - loveless
 

today is the first time i have ever listened to this album. pretty interesting sounds. can't say it's revealed too much yet although i really really like the first track a lot.

been reading all the reviews on amazon. very entertaining reading! some people make the album sound like this drug that you just can't escape from no matter how hard you try.

i remember my friend telling me about some critic who thought this album was better than most beatles albums or something

It's better than almost all the Beatles albums by far. The fucking thing is absolutely fucking glorious. Okay?

Other people have almost ruined this album for me, almost, but not yet.

quite a good album. i didn't really dig it until a few months ago though. falling asleep at a ridiculous hour of the morning on a road trip with it on, perfect.

this record is awesome.. but I prefer 'isn't anything' myself..

Isnt Anything is clearly much better.

This is the freshest topic of discussion this board has ever seen.

clearly

How about a poll thread-- Loveless vs. the white album

Wasn't this voted the top SYG favorite of all time or something?

wow! i've just relistened to it aftre a long time. such a coincidence!

read wikipedia article about it, quite interesting

Very likely.

But then it's like the top favorite on just about any kind of critic list.

Which is weird to me, as one who bought this day after it was released in 1991, when almost nobody gave it much notice--and never gave it much notice until many years later. It blows me away how much this album has gained in critical and popular appreciation over the years. It used to be a farily obscure little album.

I remember back when i was an uber-n00b here (I'm pretty sure Cantankerous was still around), we had some poll where everyone submitted 5 ideas for what they thought the accumulative 'SYG top 5' albums would be.

This one came out on top.

Anyone have a link to that thread/know what I'm talking about?

Ah, yes, the Cantankerous golden years... Sigh...

hawae man she was 16 sort yasel out! !!
