5.0 out of 5 stars Can you say "goosebumps"?, February 4, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Just for a Day (Audio CD)

You know when you hear a song for the first time and it is so good it gives you chills? This whole album is like that. And it's not just the first time you get this reaction. I have listened to it over a million times (give or take a few hundred) and it still has the same effect.

This album is pure heaven . . .

5.0 out of 5 stars Slowdive are the Greatest Band Ever!, January 11, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Just for a Day (Audio CD)

Slowdive are truly brilliant. No band has ever accomplished so much with guitars and words and using them to create dream like entities which many people can then refer to as dreams. Songs like "Catch The Breeze" and "Primal" are simply stunning, but not to take away from the rest of the album, which is equally beautiful. And Rachel Goswell has the most beautiful voice in the history of music. Part of the so called lovely "Shoegazing" movement, which i believe was one of the most imaginative and moving scenes of music ever created.....other bands worth checking out are Adorable, Ride, My Bloody Valentine, Catherine Wheel, Blind Mr. Jones, Rollerskate Skinny, Sweet Jesus, Revolver, Moose, and the Telescopes. BRILLIANT!! Slowdive should be listened to by everyone worth being called soulful. Feel free to email me.

5.0 out of 5 stars simply gorgeous., May 22, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Just for a Day (Audio CD)

I am one of those people for whom music marks memories... and Slowdive, along with Ride, Catherine Wheel, Kitchens of Distinction, My Bloody Valentine, and many other bands of the so-called "shoegazer" genre transport me back to a time in my youth when I gazed at my own shoes until they seemed to bleed together... all the same, it's introspective, gorgeous, and borders on the kind of emotional perfection that still moves me to tears.
