The problem is, and I'm biased having loved Slowdive for years, that dry
sounding, glitchy music, as much as i love that sound, don't do the space of
the original songs justice. Maybe a cmplilation involving more ambient
oriented artist like Global Communications, HIA or even Bola would have
fared better. I even like the tracks on the second disc, but I quess
Slowdive covers are a sore spot.
