My Bloody Valentine "Isn't Anything" (1988)
The band had produced a few EPs, had some line-up changes and then
buckled down to produce this, their first full-length album.
The description in the book sounded really interesting. It said that
they would pile effects on the guitars, and then take the clean guitar
signal out of the mix, leaving only the guitar-shaped outline of the effects. It has its
moments, but the overall effect is just of a slightly more aurally
interesting take on the shoegazer sound. Perfectly listenable, but not
something I would specifically seek to revisit.
