Everything a shoegaze album should be (maybe, see below), lurching and pulsing and overwhelming, all with that silver cord of melody. Perfect balance in the crystal vocals and the heaped ridges of endless guitar echoes, hazy and buzzy and shining and [all the visuals, in soft focus].

I always thought I liked shoegaze - on paper it seems like I should be into all that power, that ambient roar. But so much of it (Loveless, say) is pierced by keening edges, and in all that reverb, the spirit gets lost. Not sure I'm actually a fan.

But I like this 4/5
