don't be reductive or dismissive like that just because you don't like an album and can't think of a relevant criticism. they're literally one of the pioneers of shoegaze and have been making it for decades, there's obviously a lot of expertise that goes into the way they craft their sound and they're not just using "multi fx pedals from guitar center." if you don't like the songs then fine but fronting like you know more about pedals than Slowdive is beyond silly

"it sounds like they bought a bunch of multi fx pedals from guitar center and turned on a “modern dream pop” spotify playlist n just started writing"

I really wish Slowdive would answer my DMs so I can educate them on how to play dream pop

my resume is pretty extensive, I even left an RYM comment that says "Slowdive (LP) is the McDonald's of dream pop for people who go to Starbucks" I know exactly what I'm talking about

Star Roving doesn’t half remind me of a sped up Bobby’s Song by The Aliens.



I always find myself singing it.
