Nowhere

Acting as something like a prerequisite to Loveless, Nowhere is an album that explores some of the deepest ideas of the shoegaze genre, and does them in outstanding ways. The drumming is a standout feature, because the drums are much faster than they usually are in shoegaze; the drums here bring more energy and attitude to the instrumentation of this project. As always with much of the shoegaze coming from the late 80's and early 90's, the guitar effects are fucking awesome. Ride made a really great piece of absolutely essential shoegaze here, and I think it's something that can grow on me much more over time.
