Not really breaking new ground here - we get the same shimmering sheets of fuzz and whammy bar and incoherent \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.turntablelab.com\/search?type=article%2Cpage%2Cproduct\u0026amp;q=Kevin+Shields\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKevin Shields\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e-isms - but it's still a solid listen. These guys basically made it OK for bands like \u003cstrong\u003eBardo Pond\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003eFlying Saucer Attack\u003c\/strong\u003e (aka the Boss effects patrol) to exist. Whether that's a good thing or not, I'm not quite sure, but if you're old or young enough to know what microdots are, none of that shit matters anyway. I remember seeing these dudes perform \"Soft as Snow\" at Roseland over 10 years ago and the intro drums made a speaker topple over and broke some kid's nose. I guess you have to hive some serious mic action to compete with those guitars. \"Cupid Come\" has always been my joint on here. It's just a little more subtle and less formulaic than a lot of the other 'yes we have big muff and reverb voice I sing about being lonely' shit that can get to be a little tedious. But there's not really a bad song on here.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eblack vinyl pressing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUK import\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003egatefold sleeve\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003edigital download included\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003elimited edition\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ecatalog #: REWIGLP158\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eoriginal release year: 1988\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003emusic label: Domino 2021\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch6\u003ereviewed by Bob Bannister 05\/2005\u003c\/h6\u003e","brand":"My Bloody Valentine","offers":[{"title":"Vinyl LP","offer_id":57431227171147,"sku":"lp-17021","price":7.49,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0970\/6169\/9915\/files\/mbv-isntanything-blackvinyl-1.jpg?v=1779696617","url":"https:\/\/vinylvintage.shop\/products\/my-bloody-valentine-isnt-anything-import-vinyl-lp","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
