Do any of you know anything about SLOWDIVE?

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

For my personal interest. I've encountered it breifly a number of times; usuallly late at night when all concerned, including myself, have been a little damaged.

It probably suits the more downer kind among you in particular.

Hey Mr. Eddy....

Slowdive were ok.....they seemed to be the most brittle amongst the whole late 80's/early 90's "shoegazer" genre, i.e. My Bloody Valentine, Curve, Medicine, etc. Try their '93/'94 release Souvlaki....and if you like what you hear then seek out the debut, Just For A Day('91).

They've long since been a bit of a favourite of mine actually.

I geuss you'll fit in fairly well then, although I'm also fairly new.

You should fill up the "what's on yer stereo" & "what're you reading" threads...
...so I know what you're like!!
