My Bloody Valentine Remaster Loveless, Isn't Anything Fifteen-odd years of near total silence, and now they just won't shut up! Fresh off news of the big reunion, the European tour, the insane All Tomorrow's Parties spectacle, and the North American visit, My Bloody Valentine are all up in our grills yet again, harping on about how their two unimpeachable classic albums-- Loveless and Isn't Anything-- will soon get the deluxe remaster treatment.
As initially reported on Wired's Blog Network and now confirmed by a Sony BMG UK rep, the only two MBV albums that matter (This Is Your Bloody Valentine was practically an EP anyway) will hit UK shops June 16 in newly remastered formats. While the Isn't Anything remaster spans only one disc, the Loveless one comes as a double-disc: the first disc remastered from both DAT (digital audio tape) and analogue tape, and the second remastered from just analogue tape. No needless bonus cuts or anything, just two gems in all their pristine, self-contained glory.
Vinyl editions of these remasters are expected to follow in the UK, and the Sony BMG rep suggests the band and label are mulling "other possible releases for later in the year." Ooh, maybe that long-rumored EP/rarities box? Or the new MBV album Kevin Shields teased us about late last year? We'll be gazing holes into our sneakers while we wait to find out.
Kevin and co. will be staring straight through to the soles of theirs as well, beginning June 20 in London.

God i love remasters. I know the board is split 50/50 on remasters, but place me firmly in the "i'm buying this as soon as the store opens" camp.

God, "Soon" totally fucking destroys. I remember I didn't get the hype with this album back when I downloaded it in high school, and then I thought I got it, and then last year I ACTUALLY got it, and I knew this because songs other than "Sometimes" and "When you Sleep" started destroying me.
But "Soon" lulls you into that little dancy keyboard line, and then the fucking brick wall of guitar and then Kevin's vocals sound so goddamned hurt and anxious, holy shit.

Also, this album totes benefits from headphones, but where it's really perfect is late late night in a car, sitting half-drunk in the backseat, and I'm sure that sounds like I'm stealing the image from Lost in Translation, but it's actually from one of the few perfect moments in my life.

This album climaxes at the end. Really, I like the first four songs, but it's not till "When You Sleep" that I get goosebumps, and the last three tracks are absolutely perfect.

Blown a Wish is actually my favorite song on Loveless right now. I've never been a huge fan of Soon though. When You Sleep was my favorite for a long time, I'd probably say it's #2 right now.
