“Only Shallow” is a song by the shoegazing band My Bloody Valentine. It is the opening track and second single from the band’s second studio album, Loveless (1991), released on Creation Records. Written by Kevin Shields and Bilinda Butcher, “Only Shallow” features Shields’ distinctive guitar sound—a technique known as “glide guitar”—characterized by heavy use of a tremolo bar while strumming.
