But back to you. I love the piece that sets the tone, as it were: you learning of the release and then desperately (no doubt in concert with thousands/millions others) trying to buy the album. Really puts it into perspective.
I've never heard this band at all, and from what I read of them I don't think they'd be for me, but everyone seems to love the album so I guess they must be doing something right. Excellent second review, big improvement on the first one, which was pretty damn good.
You go, girl! You'll be mentioned in the update thread tomorrow night. For now I'll leave your journal name as it is; if you want to change it for the update let me know.

Thank you again, Trollheart! I appreciate your feedback.
You never know, you might like My Bloody Valentine, and I think Loveless is at least worth one listen. I understand why alot of people don't like their sound, though; the guitars and distortions are really heavy/harsh at times and to some people is unpleasant, especially if listening to it through headphones (which I'll admit gives me a headache).
I've had a lot of hours at work lately so unfortunately I haven't put up another review for a few days. Will post at least two tomorrow. Not giving up on this!
