so apparently My Bloody Valentine is releasing a new album tonigh

It has been over 22 years since they released Loveless, one of the greatest albums ever recorded.

I am pumped as fuck. I predict it will be glorious.

WHAT.

loveless is so fucking good

Don't you lie to me.

Who?

BAHAHAHAHA

don't believe konrad shields and his hype for ONE SECOND :D

@ripelivejam: I want to believe

you HAVE to believe

I feel like this hero of the web, just with MBV instead

It was kinda weird hearing that they were releasing a new album today. I'm going into this one with low expectations.

lastfm is blowing up hee hee hee

biggest troll win for klondike shields :D

4chan's /mu/ board is blowing up as well

There is no way that is true.

I was just listening to Loveless today! I'm pretty excited if this is in fact true (we all know Kevin Shields' track record). Don't want to set my expectations too high though, just hoping for a really good album, no instant classic or anything like that.

yeah this is kinda neat. feels like the first 'event record' since 'in rainbows' in 2007. hope it's good!

Holy shit

Kevin Shields has a reputation for being kind of a perfectionist.

I don't think he'd put out an album that has been so highly anticipated if he wasn't sure it was great. I have pretty good hopes for it.

\(*-*)/

oh my god

I wonder what the over under is on this being better or worse than chinese democracy...

(to be honest I kinda liked chinese democracy)

@Animasta:

i'm generally of the mind that the longer it's in the oven, the more likely it'll get burned.

poor metaphors aside, it's rare with artistic endeavours that the longer the wait, the better it is.

the album is now live at mybloodyvalentine.org

I suspect it will be a while before I can actually download it though ;___;

Their website won't load ahdgasdgabdsgabsdgabsdgba

It will probably suck anyway, lol @ old ppl making music.

haha i love how servers can never handle the traffic. when has a highly anticipated ANYTHING launched smoothly.

is this real life?

kevin's mum picked up the phone and dc'd his modem.

its not great so far

I wonder what the record is for longest break-up to new album. Surely 22 years has to be close.

so you're saying you're loveless.

I would prefer a sequel to the film. Also, what the hell is My Bloody Valentine?

they are a band

their album loveless was a masterpiece

it was also released in 91' and they haven't released shit since

@Godlyawesomeguy:

Got confused with Bullet for My Valentine. Accidental excitement. Now I'm sad and shit, though they're releasing a new album this year so woo, I suppose.

oh hey every person i tried to talk to about music in high school (i'm not trying to personally insult you friend this is a joke)

getting the site to work again is serious business.

very serious business.

Every time someone mentions My Bloody Valentine, I cringe, only because I confuse them with My Chemical Romance. That's probably really bad, right?

Why did this have to happen while I was at the gym?

absolutely

let's all bask in resplendent glow of one of my favourite musical cues ever.

edit: i fully expect jeff & co. to pony up the licensing fee so they can recreate this on THE RAID.

edit 2: if anyone wants to have a conversation about the absolute glory of the big muff, you let me know.

Bold prediction: It's probably not as good as Loveless.

@mellotronrules: I love that movie and that scene is one of the reasons why.

They still exist? Well...good for them I guess

TO HELL WITH YOU.

(I don't blame you for thinking it. I went through the same shit myself trying to convince people in high school that not all electronic music is the same.)
