Its strange. I'm a shoegaze fanatic, but Ride almost never gets a spin from me. I love the band, and I suppose it's true that they are often overlooked in favor of other bands. But its not as though Nowhere goes unnoticed. It's their other work people forget (or never hear). I think the MBV interest is mostly due to the reissues, and because MBV is a lot more likely to be embraced by an SY fan than Ride is.
I don't know... I've just always considered Nowhere just as culturally adored as Loveless.
regardless, this is very cool. I had no idea anything like this was happening. I can see this becoming the trend. Cover tributes by various artists. Its a great idea.
