    Every time I listen to this song I end up stopping whatever I'm doing and just get lost in it.

    The whole album is like that for me
     
  3. Yeah, I’m already at a place where I love every song. Shanty is the only one I had to let myself acclimate to a little bit since Slomo really reset the bar for Slowdive openers. But it’s hard to deny that it succeeds in setting the tone for the record

    It took me a few listens to warm up to this album but it's a really solid follow up to the self titled. I'm really bummed I can't catch them on tour this month, hope they come back again next year.

    Got a light?

    Was iffy on this at first but it’s just a bit different than what I expected yet they nailed it again, such a special and consistent band

    Caught them live tonight, was truly a dream. One of the best shows I’ve seen and also one of the loudest

    edit - Not that I didn’t already love the record, but it made me appreciate the new songs even more. They did Shanty, Kisses, and The Slab. They swapped out Prayer Remembered for Dagger which I was NOT prepared for, and made for the second time a show has actually made me cry lol

    The whole album is a masterpiece. Especially Shanty & The Slab.

    Slomo is just off the charts crazy good.

    Like Alan McGee said in the Pitchfork documentary about Souvlaki, 'Slowdive won'.

    Nothing on the new record has that rush of Star Roving, but I'm glad Neil didn't try to force another song like that. That song probably was inspired by the exultation of their comeback in 2014 and those feelings can't be replicated.

    Skin in the Game definitely re-uses a riff from No Longer Making TIme.

    I feel a bit bummed that there was never a Minor Victories 2 LP.

    When I saw them in Philly in November they were amazing. The comedown when the show ended really hit me, I wanted them to keep going lol

    They sounded crazy good and extremely loud in the Roadrunner on Sunday.

    A bit sad I had to skip out early on their SITW set but my feet were in so much pain from standing for nearly 2 straight days I could only make it like 45min through.
