Loveless? Get the My Bloody Valentine re-issues

Re-mastered versions of My Bloody Valentine's Isn't Anything and Loveless are to be released next month ahead of the band's live appearances.

Band lynchpin Kevin Shields has personally handled the re-mastering duties. Loveless, originally released in 1991, will feature a second disc containing a new version of the album, mastered from original analogue tapes. Expect sleeve notes from Shields on the process.

Coming soon to DiS: an exclusive chat with Shields as My Bloody Valentine gear up for the following shows:

June
20-24 London Roundhouse
28-29 Manchester Apollo

July
2-3 Glasgow Barrowlands

The band also play at the Electric Picnic Festival in Ireland in August and Bestival, on the Isle of Wight, in September.

So

THAT's why my £4.99 Play order was cancelled last week!

2CD EP COLLECTION PLEASE KEVIN

PRETTY PLEASE

Moo

ooh, I love being milked.

can he not just type the sleeve notes into a blog?

i already own the albums and buying them again would be needless. however, i would like to read about this process.

I'm excited about this,

not 100% sure why i'm excited about a reissue though.

worth a download

to compare the old and the new

Not just a reissue

Remastered too!

Meant to reply to fabes

but still valid response to pgrime as well.

to be honest...

...remixing the album is actually worth it, the original version of Loveless is well quiet.

Isn't

a mastered version sort of besides the point with My Bloody Valentine, surely it is loosing the lo-fi goodness?!
I spose if Shield's doing it, it won't be so bad.

I

agree with this

True

But Loveless has, like, no bottom end at all - it could seriously benefit from a sympathetic remastering, rather than making it all loud. I think I read somewhere that Kurt Ballou thought it could use a one-over, and he'd like to do it. This too would be ace.
