maybe I was being a bit harsh. the Slowdive reunion has also been fantastic (and I would probably say that their new album is the better of the two, if perhaps a bit samey) but I would still say their setlists haven't been quite as rich and varied- where's all the Just For A Day stuff? whereas Ride have been mixing up and having deep cuts in there.

Ride have a history of turning their setlist over regularly and often played unreleased material the first time around. On the other hand I first saw Slowdive in 1991 in Reading where they played a 7 song set. By 1993 and two LPs and a bunch of singles later they were still playing 5 out of those 7 songs in a 10 song set if my memory is not completely shot. In Liverpool just before the release of the new LP they played 8 of the tunes from the 1993 set including the 5 tunes from the 1991 set. They are great live, but more variety would be a good thing.

I'll probably only go and see Slowdive again if the set changes up a bit.
the two bands do pretty much have the same amount of back catalogue to play (Tarantula has wisely been erased from history)

playing devil's advocate, I do imagine it's trickier for Slowdive to work up new songs for the set- because of all the very specific guitar effects and the nuances around that. whereas I think Ride are more of a traditional rock band (who were only really shoegaze on the first album) who can get it tight, crank it up, and away you go

I only latched onto The Rev when they first released Deserters Songs, would loved to have heard/seen some of the early incarnations chaos.
That said Deserters Songs would work well in such intimate surroundings, a lovely record it has to be said.
They have produced great moments on all subsequent records but never for a full album, too much filler
Live shows usually remain excellent though

with Pete Fij & Terry Bickers as support too!

on the subject of noisy bands unplugging- I think it can work quite well and show that they have solid songs underneath all the layers. I must say that it's probably good as a novelty for Ride, but such a big part of their sound is all the distortion and Loz's superb drumming- I wouldn't want them to make a habit of it!

I should have it in hand within a day or two. I'll report back. I did hear the Cavern of Anti-Matter remix ("Lateral Alice," I think) and liked that.

The remix album is great. I really dig it. If you can score a copy for under $30, go for it. There's an amazing remix of "Cali" by Luke Abbot. Cavern of Anti-Matter's remix of "Lateral Alice" rules. Side B is an ambient suite of "Home Is A Feeling".

I see, from FB, that Ride have recorded a new long player and will be releasing soon! Good to see that they are not standing still. Looking forward to hearing some of the new stuff.

Re: NEW RIDE

yep good to know they are not standing still, they seem to move pretty fast and tour a fair amount too. seen them 7 times since they reformed!

I hope the new record is better than that EP they did, that was really naff (you can really tell it was offcuts from Weather Diaries!) the new song they played at the acoustic show was good though.

did anyone get the 'April Fools' email that came to the mailing list. apparently someone actually hacked in and did it- it was brutal. taking the piss out of Beady Eye, Marks solo career etc. I think that's why they have released this news, to cheer fans up!

Anyone heard GLOK 'Dissident'? It's an instrumental solo album from Andy Bell and quite good it is too!

First half is full of mellow dancefloor friendly vibes on a cosmic disco / balearic trip, while the second half oddly reminds me of the Beta Band at times. Some of those same tunes could actually be Ride songs with a little tweaking.
I think a number of folks here would dig this (Modlab, TheWarmth and niamhm immediately spring to mind).

Thanks for the heads up on that- to be honest I didn't feel that much motivation to check out the Glok stuff, I didn't feel hopeful that it would be that great, but will look into it.

Hope it's not the situation where people's side projects are much more interesting than the main gig..

Not long till the new album now.. reviews seem to be fairly positive. I heard another new track (Repetition) which I have to say I didn't care for at all. the reviews were mentioning some pretty good reference points for the tracks we haven't heard yet, so I remain hopeful

The Glok album is great. I bought it on cassette, even though I don't have a player, just because I wanted to support Andy and have a physical copy. The a month later they announce vinyl! Grrrr. Anyway, awesome album. Recommended.

The new Ride single, "Clouds of Saint Marie," is excellent, too. Looking forward to the album this Friday.

Re: NEW RIDE

Posted: Thu Aug 15, 2019 10:27 am

'Clouds of Saint Marie' didn't really do much for me I'm afraid, they seem to be bringing out their inner jangly indie kid on some of these songs, but this one wasn't as convincing as Future Love at all.

Re: NEW RIDE

Posted: Sat Aug 17, 2019 2:01 pm

Got to say I`m liking this latest track, heard it a few times now and its vintage Ride, proper Ride rhythm section and melodies, need to crank it up a bit I think.
I see what you mean by inner indie jangle but it just has me thinking of Twisterella and I always liked that so I`m sold on it,


Update, had a few listens now to the full album, think I need a few more, 2nd half seems to sag a bit under one or two too many mid paced tracks that may or may not grow on me, I like the tracks I`d heard before and a few others but if you didn`t like the last album I don`t think this one will smoke your boat either

There were a lot of blokes of 'a certain age' buying the new Ride LP in Probe today. I didn't bother because I thought the last one was absolutely duff. I'll give this one a few plays on TIDAL before I decide to buy it.

Re: NEW RIDE

Had a first listen to the album, have to say it didn't do much for me. Still could be a grower however, I at least owe them a few more listens (one of my fave bands after all).

Part of the problem is the production, I hope they change producer next time and get some grit back. and some oomph in Loz's drums. Weather Diaries had the same issue but had some really good songs (Olan, if you didn't like that I can't see this floating your boat)

Respect them for changing up their sound but we are a long way from shoegaze now..

There was one track which sounded like a cleaner Sonic Youth, I liked that. Enjoyed the final track too (had a nice atmospheric build up). And I still dig Future Love (nothing wrong with a jangly indie song if the songwriting is good enough-Twisterella is a fine song for example). So not all bad news. But the songs just seemed undeveloped and all with a bit of an 80s sheen.
I read an interview with Andy and he said this album came really fast and the next album will possibly be 'weightier' - that kinda makes sense

Re: NEW RIDE

Posted: Mon Aug 19, 2019 8:52 am
by Aquarian-Time
Its a solid 7/10 for me, Yeah the Sonic Youth one, is that 15 minutes ? Its Ok, some good noisy bits on the album that will come over far better live and without that nonsense producer at the helm.
Jump Jet is my favourite track and that will be superb live also Eternal Recurrence is pretty shoegazey which is all good. 2 songs on it are just filler and quite frankly need not have been on there.
I think the indie style singles (Future Love and Clouds of Saint Marie) will sound pretty god live.
I'm watching them in Koln at a 400 capacity venue 2 days after my birthday in January, tempted with Hamburg the night after.

Re: NEW RIDE

Posted: Tue Aug 20, 2019 3:01 pm
by angelsighs
okay so I listened a bit more and the album has grown on me.. a bit. 15 Minutes is indeed the Sonic Youth one, the lyrics aren't great on that one however (never their strong point).
Eternal Recurrence and Kill Switch are pretty good too.
as said above I do think it takes a slump in the second half.
still a 5/10 or 6/10 at this stage for me.

They did a signing in Resident Records yesterday. You had to pre-order the album to get a ticket into it. Even as a massive Ride fan I can't say I was that tempted. Not sure if that's a reflection on the new material or the fact I'm getting old and it was a Monday night :roll:

This album has now been listened to 4 times and has finally cracked it. Tails off slightly at the end, last tune is needlessly 8 minutes and doesn't really go anywhere but so many highlights, play it loud though, you hear so many different layers, far better production than the last LP, just seems heavier.
I still find Repetition hard to fathom and the lyrics to 15 minutes are atrocious, but those Sonic Youth style guitars are great.
Jump Jet and Eternal Reccurence (think thats what its called) are great also Future Love when cranked up is great. cant wait to see this live

Also have the GLOK LP which is Andy Bell's Ambient techno thing, one listen in and thoroughly enjoyable

Re: NEW RIDE

Posted: Sat Oct 19, 2019 10:30 am
by angelsighs
Yep have to say it's grown on me too. Still definitely some naff tracks on there though. Repetition is them trying something new, but it's not for me. The lyrics on 15 Minutes are indeed crap but lyrics have never been their strong point and I never find they detract from the overall mood. Dial Up is fairly cringey too

The good tracks are great though. Future Love is a really fine jangly feelgood song. Jump Jet had a bit of a New Order feel in the verses, then a great chorus.
My faves though are Eternal Recurrence and In This Room. Andy seems to be using the same reverb effect on both songs and I really dig it. I disagree on the length of the latter, I like that they stretch out a bit (a lot of the other songs actually seem too underdeveloped). It actually had a bit of a Verve feel to me (albeit latter Verve e.g. Forth)

Another LP reworking is incoming. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n8g25TOWaCw

I've not had a listen to the track but this is the story behind it underneath:

The concept for the collaboration was originally conceived in the early days of 2019 when members of Ride contacted Pêtr Aleksänder - AKA duo Tom Hobden (of Noah & The Whale) and producer Eliot James (Two Door Cinema Club) - after falling for the swelling strings, expansive sounds and gentle crescendos of their album, Closer, Still. A mutual appreciation of sweeping, cinematic post-rock was established and over a series of email exchanges a dialogue evolved around reinterpreting the tracks on This Is Not A Safe Space using only the vocals as a guide.

Andy Bell says: ‘Pêtr Aleksänder took our album’s vocal tracks and formed an entirely new album around them, and the results are inspired, often really beautiful, and at times, totally mental. They have crafted a delicate web of string and synthesiser arrangements which draws you into a whole other world than our version of the album. I love what they’ve created.’

Pêtr Aleksänder say: ‘Reimagining Ride’s album was a treat. We took a rather unusual approach: although fans of Ride in the first instance, we nevertheless resisted listening to anything other than each track's main vocal before setting to work, beginning exclusively with string and piano arrangements inspired by the main vocal. Focusing on the sentiment of the vocal and re-interpreting it with our own arrangements resulted in combinations of melody, harmony and emotion that would have been very hard to achieve via a more conventional songwriting / composing approach. We even waited until the band had released the album before choosing to listen to the songs in their original state - a strange experience for us given that we knew our versions of the same songs so well by that point!’

Re: NEW RIDE

Posted: Wed Apr 15, 2020 7:06 pm
by angelsighs
it's interesting that he only listened to the main vocal before doing his arrangements- I guess that makes it much more open in terms of how he might interpret them

had a listen to the preview tracks though and it didn't really do much for me. kudos to them for trying something different though.

Ride are doing a Nowhere 30th Anniversary tour next April (pre-sale today ) plus all the albums are getting the vinyl reissue treatment: https://twitter.com/rideox4

Might pick up Tarantula as i've never seen a vinyl copy (aside from Discogs). Revisited it a while back and it's not as bad as people think!

Re: NEW RIDE

not sure if I'll go to the tour tbh, only seems 5 minutes (not 5 years! :o ) since the last Nowhere tour. will probably wait for a proper tour with new material.
definitely up for the reissues though. Nowhere and GBA surprisingly hard to get hold of. wonder if we are talking straight reprints here or anything like the Spiritualized campaign.. or even extras?

I've never actually heard of all of Tarantula! :oops: it's reputation proceeds it

I listen to Tarantula probably once a year and always, when I do, look it up on discogs to check if I can get it on vinyl. Couple of years ago it was still pretty cheap, but now not so much. Will buy that reissue. Probably :D

I do enjoy Tarantula, and Dead Man is a highlight in some ways, but it's also a bit cringey lyrically.

I went down to the zoo and I looked in the cages

It is not the best of lyrics, but then again, lyrics were never really Ride’s strong suit IMO.
Tarantula is a bit of their Britpop album, isn’t it? I guess he went for some Kinks-style observation there, but with not much succes :lol:

theres a preview of the new Ride album in this months Uncut mag. (the album is out in March apparently)

they were mainly comparing the sound to 80s synth pop- Tears for Fears, Depeche Mode etc. not sure it's gonna be my bag tbh! I wasn't enamoured with Repetition which was their previous closest song to this style.

Andy Bell's solo work may be hitting the mark more for me these days

Kinda agree, quite liked the first song late last yr, then heard the latest new one and it was reminding me of something I couldn’t quite put my finger on, then it it came to me after a few listens, clean, shiny, professional indie pop production? The fucking Lightning Seeds… Not good

I thought exactly the same thing- Lightning Seeds came to mind pretty quickly!
I like this song a little bit more than Peace Sign, at the least drums are a bit punchier.
agree that live their newer stuff often comes across a bit more powerfully. happened with things like Future Love (which is still a better song than either of these in my opinion)
gonna skip the tour though, as no dates are particularly local to me and I've seen them loads of times now.

it does seem to be getting pretty bad on this front.
with fees it's almost £50 to see Echo & The Bunnymen
as said in another thread, £80 to go see Gallagher and Squire. not that I was up for that anyway! but not too long ago these were arena level prices.

even on the smaller side of things.. was maybe gonna see Pond but tickets were £27 . for Pond?? no chance.
