my bloody valentine - loveless
90

Always enjoyed the singles from this album but wrongfully assumed a whole album would be a bit *too* much shoegazing. I was WRONG! Honestly it's so good and one of those albums where everything just clicks into place nicely. Think the pacing of tracks 2 and 3 is a bit odd, but otherwise I really don't have many complaints.

Top Three Tracks:
1. soon
2. come in alone
3. to here knows when

This is a seriously pleasant dream pop album that I've been enjoying listening to as I fall asleep. I initially thought it was quite tame for a David Lynch-adjacent album, but then the weird woodwind solo in I Remember happened lol. I'll probably be revisiting this for a long time and can see it becoming a bit of a classic for me.

Top Three Tracks:
1. Floating
2. Rockin' back Inside My Heart
3. I Remember

I hadn't heard of Judee Sill until CMAT did her Pitchfork perfect 10. What a suggestion that turned out to be! I love the gospel piano and layered harmonies – just sounds lovely.

Top Three Tracks:
1. Down Where the Valleys are Low
2. There's a Rugged Road
3. When the Bridegroom Comes

I was really looking forward to this based on the three tracks they'd relased prior. Ultimately, it's a good listen and I enjoy some of the wacky production and interesting songwriting. However, I saw Cameron say in an interview that Love Story was the best song on the album, and I'd be inclined to agree that the rest doesn't live up to the single.

Top Three Tracks:
1. Love Story
2. The Blink of an Eye
3. Pearls
