May 05, 2017 Slowdive By Christopher Roberts

If you support Under the Radar‘s Patreon page at the minimum contribution of at least $1.00 a month you get access to our Patreon-only feed featuring exclusive content only available to Patreon supporters. Today’s Patreon exclusive is an old article on legendary ‘90s shoegazers Slowdive. The article, an interview with singer/guitarist Rachel Goswell, ran in Issue 4 of Under the Radar‘s print magazine, way back in 2003. One of our original writers, and a longtime Slowdive fan, Nick Hyman conducted the interview. It was part of a special section we ran on shoegazing, which included interviews with fellow shoegazers Ride, Lush, Chapterhouse, Swirlies, and Swervedriver. At the time Slowdive had been broken up for eight years and Goswell was focused on her post-Slowdive band Mojave 3, as well as her solo work. Slowdive reformed a few years ago and released a new album, a self-titled affair and their first full-length in 22 years, today via Dead Oceans.
