"I wanted to love this record, I really had the mentality that this would be a concise gem of lovesexmagic, but it's just... ugh.

"69 is as important as Treasure by Cocteau Twins and Isn't Anything by My Bloody Valentine when it comes to pioneering the shoegaze movement. 69 is an album in its own dimension. "Crazy Blue" is the spiraling gateway drug to a dream world of complex emotions and abstract ideas, and "Spanish Quay (..."  [+]  Reply
