My Bloody Valentine
Like the Velvet Underground, Sonic Youth, and the Jesus & Mary Chain before them, My Bloody Valentine redefined what noise meant within the context of pop songwriting. Led by guitarist Kevin Shields, the group released several EPs in the mid-'80s before recording the era-defining Isn't Anything in 1988, a record that merged lilting, ethereal melodies of the Cocteau Twins with crushingly loud, shimmering distortion.

Isn't Anything was good enough to inspire an entire scene of My Bloody Valentine soundalikes, but Loveless' greatness proved that the band was inimitable. After two painstaking years in the studio and nearly bankrupting their label Creation in the process, the group emerged with their masterpiece, which fulfilled all of the promise of their previous albums.

Tremolo is one of the EPs that accompanied My Bloody Valentine's influential masterpiece, Loveless. One could consider it more of a single -- it lifts the abstract track "To Here Knows When" from the album -- but its real worth lies in the three songs which accompany it: "Swallow," "Honey Power," and "Moon Song."

The Glider EP finds My Bloody Valentine exploring the different harmonics in their dissonances and distortion, creating floating layers of sound that are hypnotic in their ebb and flow. The first song, "Soon," is one of the group's greatest sound paintings, filled with evocative textures and eerie, disembodied rhythms, while the title track is nearly as fascinating, making Glider an essential addition to a My Bloody Valentine library. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine, All Music Guide
