Yup. It's really terrible. Effectively it's an entirely different band, with a different singer. I don't think their sound really clicked until the 'Strawberry Wine' single.

Agreed. The singer is really bad.

Yes they are as good! Try "Isn't Anything", "Tremolo", "Glider", "You Made Me Realise", "Feed Me With Your Kiss", "Ecstacy and Whine". All great albums.

It's not rubbish, what do you know? How old where you when it was released? It's not the best thing i heard, but show some respect man if yr a fan of MBV. :x

Come off it. It's a terrible record! There's no shame in having an inauspicious start to a recording career. I don't much care for Sonic Youth's debut either. Even in interview the band have said that they didn't really hit their stride until Strawberry Wine and particularly You Made me Realise. They'll always have my respect for improving by several orders of magnitude from that first album.

What NO RESPECT for Sonic Youth's debut? What about that beautiful " I dreamed I dream " from their debut Sonic Youth 1982!!! You shoot be shot on sight. :x

There is a higher quality rip of the song in 256kb if anybody is still interested.

What does it matter how old a person was when a record came out? It doesn't change the fact that you don't care for it.

If they did, they would certainly be a lot cooler! Thanks for the higher quality rip!

also julie and candy is my favorite BOC song deal with it
i remember back in the day kevin shields talking about a drum loop that he had come up with that madonna ripped off for "justify my love". i've long assumed this was it.
It's no rip-off, do you think Kevin Shields gave it for nothing? :lol:

Instrumental A is far more conventional - pretty much in the style of the 'Isn't Anything', particularly 'Feed Me With Your Kiss'. There's a track that appeared on a flexidisc called 'Sugar' that's ace though. Well worth tracking down.

agreed with ianredpoint, instrumental A is muchos differnet from b. There is not many songs by MBV that go with instrumental B, its one in its own. although you guys could check out the 4 songs kevin shields did for the 'Lost in translation' soundtrack...you would probably enjoy them!

ps, comeon guys let not fight about first records...i bought 'this is your bloody valentine' on cd for 30 bucks and i personally enjoy it...plus sonic youth is great...and julie and candy oh man

The soundtrack from "Lost In Translation" is great, not only the Kevin Shields tracks. 8)
