My Bloody Valentine

I am going with they are OK, but I am not a fan.

I have one of their CDs that I got as a present and their music is just not my style.

I want to beat the Loveless dead horse and talk about how awesome it is.

Loveless is awesome. I don't care for what I've heard of Isn't Anything, though, but I'll give it another shot.

You need to give all of their post-Conway era EPs a listen (ex: Tremolo EP, You Made Me Realise).

That's definitely a no-no...

So sad that in a few years we will look at the past decade's fashion and say: "Didn't we learn our lesson in the 80's?"

There's no use...it'll always come back to bite us in the arse.

They are ok, but not a fan.

I think it's a case of not getting them. I don't get the appeal and I don't get why people hold Loveless in such a high regard.

I'm in the same boat. it has some good moments and it can sound pretty, but the songwriting is pretty bad.

One day Loveless just clicked for me...but when I first listened to it, I was a bit biased in the amount of attention I was willing to pay. I mean...this guy spent ridiculous amounts of money on his guitar tone alone. Being a guitar player, I had to hear what that was about.

It's more like he spends hundreds of thousands of dollars on pedals that just end up collecting dust.
