EAN: 8803581130225 Format: Import Label: Sbme Import Manufacturer: Sbme Import Number Of Discs: 1 Publisher: Sbme Import Release Date: October 18, 2005 Studio: Sbme Import Editorial Review: Album Description: Remastered Asian pressing. My Bloody Valentine's entire career has been aiming toward the perfect guitar noise that Kevin Shields has in his head: a pure, warm, androgynous but deeply sexual rush of sound. Loveless is overwhelming, with Shields and Bilinda Butcher's guitars and voices blending into each other until they become a distant orchestra, the rhythm section striding in majestic lockstep, and occasional bursts of dance rhythms (as on the single 'Soon') buoying the live instruments' warp and drift.

Although I think MBV's Loveless is a perfect album in every way, I bought this version because it was specified as a REMASTERED version, which it is most definitely NOT. I listened to my old copy of Loveless on CD and I listened to this newer supposedly remastered copy back to back. There is no difference except for the price tag. Unless you want to pay 30 bucks for a second copy of Loveless with no bonus tracks and one that isn't remasterd I'd suggest you stay away. The only difference here is ... Read More |
