The band's signature dreamy vocals and hypnotic guitar riffs are on full display here, creating a lush, otherworldly atmosphere that is impossible to resist.

About the artist

Slowdive

Slowdive, the legendary shoegaze band from Reading, England, are the sonic equivalent of lying in a field of daisies on a warm summer day. Formed in 1989, Slowdive quickly made a name for themselves with their dreamy, ethereal soundscapes and hazy vocals that transport listeners to another dimension. Their debut album, Just For a Day, released in 1991, is a masterclass in atmospheric, immersive music that envelops you like a warm hug. Tracks like "Alison" and "Catch the Breeze" showcase the band's ability to create lush, hypnotic soundscapes that draw you in and refuse to let go. Their sophomore effort, Souvlaki, released in 1993, solidified Slowdive's status as one of the pioneers of the shoegaze genre. With songs like "When the Sun Hits" and "Dagger", the band continued to push boundaries and explore new sonic territories, cementing their place in music history. After a brief hiatus, Slowdive made a triumphant return in 2014 with their self-titled album, proving that their magic was as potent as ever. Tracks like "Star Roving" and "Sugar for the Pill" showcase the band's evolution while still maintaining their signature dreamy sound. With their swirling guitars, lush harmonies, and otherworldly melodies, Slowdive are a band that transcends time and space, inviting listeners to get lost in their sonic paradise. So put on your headphones, close your eyes, and let Slowdive take you on a journey through the cosmos of sound.
