My Bloody Valentine

Yeah it definitely holds up well to repeated listens. The album isn't as good as Loveless and they were never going to top Loveless. But what they did produce was a worthy follow-up to Loveless and I might even like it as much as Isn't Anything at the moment.

Favourite songs are 'She Found Now', 'New You' and 'Wonder 2'. 'She Found Now' is a brilliantly bittersweet introduction to the album and made me breath with a sigh of relief when it first hit my ears. 'New You' is probably the most accessible song on the album but Bilinda's dreamy and infectious vocals makes my heart melt. 'Wonder 2' is like nothing I've heard before. It's like listening to an MBV song while strapped to the roof of a plane that's performing loops and nose-dives and shit. Disorientating but in the best way possible.

I just ran across this..

Their performance isn't very different from when I saw them in 2009, which isn't strange I guess. There's also a short performance by Lush tacked on to the end of this video.
