So now we know what Bill Murray whispered to Scarlett Johansson at the end of Lost In Translation: “Don’t worry – My Bloody Valentine only have another decade to go.” After a couple of weeks and a hundred listens, it’s pretty obvious that the new My Bloody Valentine album is even greater than we all spent years hoping. The world has waited almost 22 years, but suddenly the weirdness that MBV finally exists has been replaced by the weirdness of the album itself. The tortured backstory already seems like a footnote. Now we all have bigger questions to face, like whether “Only Tomorrow” or “New You” is the most insanely beautiful song in the universe. After 12 days of full immersion, the music sounds more mysterious, not less. [Source]
