Dead Oceans
SLOWDIVE - s/t LP
$48.95
Includes d/l code.
First new release in 22 years for the recently re-formed British shoegaze band. It's strange to call it a comeback album, because it seems so sure of itself. Instead, it feels like a completely logical next step in their discography. The record fits snugly inside the band's canon, so much so that it makes the 22 years since Pygmalion all the more difficult to believe. Slowdive delivers nearly everything their fans desire in a return: familiarity, innovation, and vast atmospheres to get lost in -- all uniquely Slowdive.
