there are still a few people out there waiting for my bloody valentine to release a new album. these people served as the definition of "optimism" in the hipsters dictionary. then these people were to be moved to the definition of "a dreamer" but by then mbv had fallen out of favor. however, now that shoegazing is making a comeback these people again have useful function in the definitions of "disillusioned" and "just plain crazy". at this point i'm not sure a new mbv album would be desirable at all. besides, the swedes mustafa et monique seem to do exactly what mbv used to do and do it quite well. you might hold it against them that they sound eerily like isn't anything era mbv. in most instances that would be something to complain about but what always liked about mbv was the sound on isn't anything (loveless was good too but i favour the rougher sound). unfortunately, these guys appear to copy mbv's every move since they haven't released anything since 2004 (i think). [correction: mustafa et monique released houdini aubergine ep in 2005.]ecstasy like you
