Unbelievable that it's been 32 years since I saw Slowdive at the Slough Music festival, and then I saw them at Glastonbury this year. Consistently an amazing band.

Saw them in Slough too, which seems bonkers to think it was the centre of the indie universe for a few months back then. Seeing them again in London next month. Amazing how they've come back.

Got into them in the last year I started buying their CDs. Only started listening to their 2 newest albums from 2017 and 2023 this November. Wow! Had never heard of them before 2022.

@final_mile_music9713 6 ай бұрын

Awesome! Checkout Creation records roster from the early ‘90’s. Alan McGee, the owner, was a fantastic taste-maker in England at the time. He put Slowdive out there originally.

Went to watch them live a few days ago, WOW. If you've never understood "wall of sound" go see them live. Slowdive builds their sonic goodness behind a dam, and when full, unleash it all at once on the audience in a deluge of sound. It reverbed off every nook and cranny of the venue and was just inescapable. You just have to laugh manically when it happens.

@massgrave8x Ай бұрын

saw them a few nights ago as well and felt the same, at the first crescendo of their set I found myself overwhelmed and grinning ear to ear. massive as ever.

Saw them and bought their first records in ‘90 and have loved them ever since. Saw them again in Chicago this year, 32 years after seeing them originally as a 20 year old in England. It was great to share that moment with a load of youngsters with great taste. Favorite band by a mile. Always have been.

Isla Vista, California, May 26, 1996. We knew nothing about this band. We thought the "lead singer" was named Spider, so my friend kept yelling, "Ello, Spi-Dah." How wrong we were. 30 years later, they still blow me away. Keep it loud, Slowdive, that's when you're at your best...
