Mar 22, 2012 My Bloody Valentine By Mike Hilleary

Sony has announced that it will be reissuing the seminally short back catalog of shoegaze originators My Bloody Valentine on May 7. Re-releasing the band’s two influential full-lengths (1988’s Isn’t Anything and 1991’s Loveless), as well as a compilation of their four EPs (Feed Me With Your Kiss, You Made Me Realise, Glider, and Tremolo), the set will also include number of previously unreleased material and rare tracks. Frontman Kevin Shields personally oversaw the re-mastering of both Loveless and Isn’t Anything, conducting them himself at London’s Metropolis Studios. Loveless will actually be paired with an additional disc featuring a previously unreleased master of the album made from the original analog tapes.
