My Bloody Valentine - Loveless album cover | |||||||||||||||
Loveless is an album by the Irish band My Bloody Valentine, released on November 4, 1991 on Creation Records in the UK and on November 5 on Sire Records in the U.S. It is widely considered[citation needed] to be My Bloody Valentine's magnum opus.
The album itself cost about £100,000, but the recording process took three years and is apocryphally known for having cost £250,000 (though this is disputed - see Cost section below), resulting in two EPs (Glider and Tremolo, on which "Soon" and "To Here Knows When" made their first appearances) and four music videos, and nearly bankrupting their label. The album's credits list no less than 18 engineers. Loveless, despite its highly enthusiastic reviews, only reached #24 on the UK Albums Chart, while never charting in the U.S. The album cover is a movie still of a Fender Jazzmaster guitar, focused at the neck joint, from the music video for "To Here Knows When". Brian Eno said, regarding the song "Soon," "It set a new standard for pop. It's the vaguest music ever to have been a hit." Track listing: 1. "Only Shallow" (Bilinda Butcher, Kevin Shields) – 4:17 2. "Loomer" (Butcher, Shields) – 2:38 3. "Touched" (Colm O'Ciosoig) – 0:56 4. "To Here Knows When" (Butcher, Shields) – 5:31 5. "When You Sleep" (Shields) – 4:11 6. "I Only Said" (Shields) – 5:34 7.
