Listening diary 3rd April, 2022: Slowdive - Morningrise (shoegaze/dream pop, 1991)
Far from my favourite Slowdive release, and gee the production here is borderline dodgy, but
it still contains its fair share of great ideas, and it’s enjoyable to hear early era
Slowdive do some tracks that focus on expansive, almost space-rock jams. There are far fewer
hooks here, but they’re made up for with some smooth timbral exercises, particularly during
the instrumental passages. It’s also over far too quickly, but fortunately the band would
take this kind of sound much further on future releases.
6.6 (5th listen)

This is...pretty. Like maybe the prettiest Slowdive has ever been. It does pack less of a punch than the s/t EP, or Souvlaki's best cuts (ie: Allison). So it's pretty, but less impactful than the band's other "pretty" releases, mainly because it meanders for too long, not knowing what to do with what's going on. still luv sic of this tho.

Decent 3.5 - Pretty decent work. S/T EP is much better, I guess I prefer the more layered sound of S/T over the ambient sound of this album. But ,,She Calls'' is magnificent piece of music. ,,Morningrise'' is Great single and ,,Losing Today'' is probably just not my cup of tea, there is not many underwhelming Slowdive songs, but ,,Losing today'' is one of them.

"She Calls" might be my favorite non-Souvlaki Slowdive song.
