Early MBV (pre-You Made Me Realise)
Apparently My Bloody Valentine have a new album out - the media haven't really covered it but I managed to track it down - and it made me go back & listen to their REALLY early stuff before they signed to Creation.
Whilst it tends to get airbrushed out of their history & dismissed as fey C86-fodder, listening to it you can definitely hear indicators of what they would later become. See what I mean:
