Slowdive — Souvlaki

140-Gram Black Vinyl LP

Souvlaki is the 1993 sophomore album from shoegaze icons Slowdive. Highlights include synthesizer contributions from Brian Eno on “Sing” and “Here She Comes.” Considered one of the best shoegaze albums ever released, it didn’t receive much credit at the time.

“They’ve found a way to be quiet, moving, and aggressive simultaneously, mixing trance-like beauty with the deepest delayed guitar sounds around, a sound at once relaxing, soothing, and exciting, and most of all harshly beautiful.” (Jack Rabid, AllMusic)
