Loveless
my bloody valentine · 1991
Loveless took My Bloody Valentine from February 1989 to September 1991 to finish, moving through nineteen studios and a rotating cast of engineers as Kevin Shields pursued a heavily layered, endlessly revised sound built on glide guitar and digital sampling. The cost and chaos nearly broke the band's label, Creation Records, but the finished album redefined what a guitar could sound like and became the defining record of the shoegaze scene.
