My Bloody Valentine – Glider (CD)

Arriving between *Isn't Anything* and the seismic *Loveless*, the *Glider* EP captured My Bloody Valentine at the exact moment Kevin Shields was pushing guitar texture and studio manipulation into genuinely uncharted territory. The title track and "Soon"-era sonics rewired what rock music could feel like, burying melody so deep in the wash that finding it became the whole point. Essential connective tissue in one of the most influential catalogs of the past four decades.
