My Bloody Valentine...

"...10 years later. Not quite as good as MBV, but Valentine's one of my favorite bands ever, so it's not fair. However, if you liked the shoegazers of the UK circa early 90s, you should enjoy this. Poppy melodies, shimmering distortion, boy-girl vocals, plus Stereolab-like keyboards make this dreamfest stick in your head. The way I see it, since Kevin hasn't come out with an album since Loveless (and he's not going to), this will keep fans of MBV satisfied for a while. Oh yeah, they're Estonian, but they sing in English (not that you can discern the vocals, but they're printed on the sleeve)."
