	Loveless Review \| My Bloody Valentine \| Reviews @ Ultimate-Guitar.Com
		My Bloody Valentine were the premier band to emerge from the late '80s/early '90s "shoegazer" movement.
		My Bloody Valentine's music is definitive of the shoegazer movement; however, I will attempt to describe the sound for those who are unfamiliar with the term.
		As with a lot of early-'90s indie records, My Bloody Valentine's sound relied heavy upon heavy distortion, which seemed to be almost swirling.

	My Bloody Valentine - Biography
		As shoegazing reached its peak in 1991, My Bloody Valentine released Loveless, which broke new sonic ground and was hailed as a masterpiece.

		My Bloody Valentine signed with Island and entered the studio at the end of 1992 to record a new album.

	Amazon.ca: Loveless: Music: My Bloody Valentine (Site not responding. Last check: )
		My Bloody Valentine's entire career has been aiming toward the perfect guitar noise that Kevin Shields has in his head: a pure, warm, androgynous but deeply sexual rush of sound.
		My Bloody Valentine spent the mid- to late-80's expanding upon the feedback-drenched, murky sonic wash developed by bands like Cocteau Twins and The Jesus and Mary Chain with an LP and a series of EPs that were largely ignored by critics and fans.
		My Bloody Valentine's third record Loveless is a sweeping swath through the halls of stand out art music that will forever be tried (ie Evanescence) but never duplicated in full or even part.

	My Bloody Valentine: Loveless \| Oct 15, 1999 (Site not responding. Last check: )
		My Bloody Valentine's (MBV) Loveless represents all that is well and good in music, but things haven't been well and good for the band in 1999.
		MBV, otherwise known as Kevin Shields, has not released an album since Loveless in 1999, and rumors about him have reached a mythic grandeur only surpassed by the death of Paul and the rebirth of Tupac.
		Although MBV does not stray far from the traditional rock music instruments—guitar, bass, drums, and sometimes sampler—the meticulous layering of sound gives the music a dreamy and cyclical feel.

	Monsters At Play: My Bloody Valentine Review (Site not responding. Last check: )
		My Bloody Valentine is without a doubt, one of those few diamonds in the rough (along with F13 4 and The Prowler).
		They've ignored the warnings and even though the annual dance was canceled, a group of locals decide to have their own party in the mine.
		The film is bloody, but not too bloody and never seems excessive (probably another reason the film manages to play off as more than just a cheap knock off).

	The DVD Journal \| Quick Reviews: My Bloody Valentine (Site not responding. Last check: )
		The quiet mining town of Valentine's Bluff is gearing up for its first Valentine's Day dance in 20 years — a tradition previously abandoned after a psychotic miner went on a murderous spree and promised to return for more should the locals ever dare plan another Feb. 14th celebration.
		The rough, working-class milieu of Valentine's Bluff is a welcome change from the standard lot of murdered preppies popular to this genre, and the inexperienced cast of believably cretinous provincials adds some flavor to a highly formulaic series of ersatz shocks and gruesome (and occasionally imaginative) gougings.
		My Bloody Valentine has been preserved far better than it deserves, and Paramount presents it in a surprisingly clean anamorphic transfer (1.85:1) with the original mono soundtrack (DD 2.0).

	TrouserPress.com :: My Bloody Valentine
		By this time, My Bloody Valentine had begun construction on a wall of sound/noise (depending on your aesthetic values) that's often likened to the Jesus and Mary Chain's.
		It was on several tours in support of Loveless that My Bloody Valentine really served notice of its intent to challenge audience endurance: sets that began at earplug-oxidizing volume escalated precipitously, culminating in an epic dissertation on a single chord — a D to be precise — that often passed the 20-minute mark.
		The limit-pushing evidently took a lot out of My Bloody Valentine: although a third full album has been rumored to be near completion several times, nothing has been heard from the trailblazing band since.

		My Bloody Valentine is reportedly releasing two anthologies and a DVD in 2005.
		My ears are still ringing from the one and only MBV gig I went to, back in 1992.
		My Bloody Valentine are band who are largely known for one album, 1991’s “Loveless.” It’s one of those rare albums that really sounds like the album cover looks: it’s an indecipherable blur of noise and distorted guitars.

	My Bloody Valentine
		St Valentine was a priest who married lovers in secret against the Roman law laid down by the Emperor Claudius in 270 AD that all soldiers should be unmarried.
		My poor mother was probably tortured by me at fourteen prancing around next to the front door and thought that a card would help.
		One of the other problems with Valentine’s Day (apart from the cheesy cards, the tack, the chocolates, the bad sixth form poetry and the gifts of ill-fitting underwear in garish colours) is that all the desperate people clamber out of the woodwork.

	And You Call Yourself a Scientist! -My Bloody Valentine (1981)
		This sequence also highlights something else about My Bloody Valentine that helps to set it aside from the mass of the era’s slashers, and which may in fact be the reason why the film still seems to be held in such affection.
		This is perhaps the time to correct a common misconception about My Bloody Valentine: I’ve seen a number of reviews that insist that the characters hold their party in the mine; when in fact they hold it in the recreation room at the mine, which is rather different.
		The premise of My Bloody Valentine has some originality about it (which would last all of nine months, at which point it would be ripped off wholesale by The Prowler); and if we can’t judge the special effects in their entirety, at least what remains is enjoyably gruesome.

		It was on one late December evening in 1991 that I received my first exposure to the band My Bloody Valentine.
		My friend, who initially saw the band with me on television that night, has since, based on my recommendation, purchased and enjoyed "Loveless".
		My Bloody Valentine is a band that provided a little warmth in, what were for me, particularly unhappy times (the rest of that period of my life was, unfortunately, quite bleak), and for that I am particularly grateful.

	Punknews.org \| About My Bloody Valentine
		My Bloody Valentine were an Irish-British rock band known for their creative use of guitar distortion and vibrato.
		The thick, swirling, multi-layered guitar sound developed by My Bloody Valentine would later be termed shoegazer by the British press because of the band's tendency to look down while performing on stage.
		The tag was applied to a number of new alternative pop-rock or rock outfits of similarly heavily layered and distorted guitars and boyishly nonchalant, at times wistful vocals like those generally sung by Kevin Shields or soft, hushed vocals by Bilinda Butcher.

	Stomp Tokyo Video Reviews - My Bloody Valentine (Site not responding. Last check: )
		The killer in My Bloody Valentine is a fairly scary apparition; he always dresses in full miner's gear, with gas mask and helmet.
		But most of the time his headlamp is lit, which is a great effect when his victims are frozen with deer-like fear in its beam, but it begs the question of how he manages to sneak up on anyone.
		My Bloody Valentine is one of the better written holiday-themed slasher films, but unless you have a real taste for this genre, or unless a scary movie is the only way you can get your intended sweetie to jump into your arms, we suggest something a bit more romantic on Valentine's day.

	My Bloody Valentine
		Since My Bloody Valentine solidified their lineup and signature sound in 1987, a slew of similar groups have followed in their wake, most notably Lush, Ride, Swervedriver, and Pale Saints.
		The British press has taken to calling their trance-pop style "oceanic rock"; the bands themselves are labeled shoegazers due to their perceived tendency to stand stock-still and look downward while performing.
		Although Sire/Warner Bros. acquired American rights to My Bloody Valentine in 1990, the group -- and its pioneering sound -- continued to be identified with Creation.
