I prefer it raw
' Unlike that album, which is great, 'Isn't Anything' is more legible to me-that is, the lack of glossy production allows the amazing technique of Shields and co. I prefer this to the more well known 'Loveless. to come through more clearly. Sexy and Violent.


The worst crap ever...
No talent, no ideas. This is the worst crap ever. . . just noise. No melody, not even a mood. . . just children playing around on electric instruments without a clue. What a shame that the people who listen to this. . . crap. . . waste their time, when there is so much good music to listen to: blues, r&b, classical, jazz, rock, punk, alternative, country, etc. This is nothing music for people who think they know what is hip but really know nothing.


Beware: a new remastered version is to be released in January 2010
The starting price is the same as the old version. Before buying this old and not remastered release, you might be interested to know that a new, remastered version will be out in the UK in January 2010.


Not for average Joe/Jane!
And seeing that this album got the same ratings as "Loveless" I went for it - sadly, without listening to the preview clips. So I love "Loveless" and so decided to add some more MBV to my collection. Alas, I found this album to be, frankly, an absolute MESS! None of the semi-melodious, invitingly-droning, enveloping, soundscapeness that makes me fond of "Loveless". Very hard to listen to, not very approachable for an average music appreciator. My face was kinda scrunched up in confusion as I tried my best to listen to every track but ended up skip forward through them all within a mere 20 minutes and started wondering how much I'm gonna get for it at the used CD store. Yikes. I ended up getting cold feet on the other 2 MBV cd's I ordered along with it and they currently await the postman to take them back to Amazon unopened for a refund.


AMAZING
MBV is THE shoegaze band, and this is their most all-out effort. This is one of those albums than everybody ought to have in their possession. The songwriting here is impeccable, and the musical style is definitive of the "shoegaze" movement. This is the album that everybody and anybody who considers their music shoegaze will be compared to.
