OOOOOOOOOO
but I doubt I'll be going
However, this means they will play elsewhere, right?
Maybe they will play Primavera...
*prays*

You read my mind perplexis Mind you, think how crowded it will be that night

 

[May Kasahara]

Although, as I was saying to Mr K last night, they'll probably reform and then not get around to actually doing anything...

 

[DJWrongspeed]

weird, they're not the sort of band i'd ever want to see again, not that they were bad, just that for me they defined what was 'loud.' a limit of what was possible, a circumference of sound if u will.

Dunno how reforming will do them any favours , they always struggled in their last tour with the sound.


(oh yeah, let's not have loads of comments about how great the 'loveless' LP is , 'Isn't Anything' is why they're important)

 

[May Kasahara]

Whereas I'd love to see them again, as they were one of the bands I saw at my first proper gig and I was so utterly wasted on cheap blended Scotch that I can't remember much beyond seeing someone with his head stuck in a speaker cone during their set.

 

[ATOMIC SUPLEX]

I saw them a couple of times, once for isn't anything and then again just before that shit album came out.

They were extreamly boring, and those were the days when I was really exited to see any live band, plus they were my favorate band.

 

[perplexis]

Well, piss on my bonfire why don't you!
I'd just like to see them. Never have so it'd be interesting!

 

[futha]

dont be stupid, loveless is incredible and deserves many comments.

 

[ATOMIC SUPLEX]

Loveless is mostly shite.

I want to see a comp of all the mid early stuff before Kevin started singing. We have the german album but then nothing was put on CD until strawbery wine.

 

[butchersapron]

Because it's crap. Real crap.

 

[futha]

Loveless is mostly shite.

not in any way is it shite.

 

[ATOMIC SUPLEX]

not in any way is it shite.

I think it's shite on many levels. Two good songs. All the eps after geek don't have any bad songs and isn't anything only has one shitty song.

 

[futha]

fair enough. i love it. isn't anything is great too of course

 

[ATOMIC SUPLEX]

I found my canadian cassette album of feed me with your kiss as I was packing the other day. Worthless now I should imagine.

 

[stavros]

I'm not the world's biggest fan of live music anyway (I know, it's weird), but MBV seem like a band who were so perfect for the studio rather than live. I may be wrong on that, but both "Isn't Anything" and "Loveless" are such beautiful works of art.

 

[Silva]

MBV relies a lot on studio tricks to get things right, so while I'd be there if they popped up at Paredes de Coura, the prospect of a remastered box set (which seems to be granted) and a new album would make me even happier.

About their early stuff, they were completely shit until the Sunny Sundae Smile EP. This is and Geek! are absolutely dire.
