Shoegaze progenitors My Bloody Valentine regroup in London after more than 15 years of Barrett-esque reclusive behaviour, all of which followed their mind-altering 1991 album Loveless. Apparently they made a snap decision to return, albeit with more wrinkles, and woo us into a nostalgic daze. Kevin Shields' stripped-down guitar churns out waves of jagged reverb, weaving a heady fabric around keyboards and half-muttered vocals. Riding on promises of a new album, you can revel in the prospect of choice new material; just make sure you find, steal or blag a ticket somehow.
