I used to say in my golden years that this EP was the best record ever released on the face of earth, shadowing beatles smiths velvet underground and whatever etc., most to irritate my indie friends, but i genuinely really loved these songs and played them on repeat for hours.. till this day i feel there's something powerful, intense and naive at the same time in these Ride Sogs. But of course you can say maybe it's pure nostalgia from my late-teen years
Of all the bands I met when I worked at KUCR Andy Bell of Ride was the one of the most humble and down to earth. John Squire and Many from the Stone Roses where right their with him!!
This is an incredible 4 track e.p. I can't wait to see them next week in S.F. and Hollywood. Spent half my vacation time this year just for these shows.
Me too!! I have them all signed by Andy when I interviewed him in May 1995 when working for KUCR . But nothing tops when I got to hang out with him and Ida at the Stone Roses concert at the Palladium May 25th 95. Even though I was with the Stone Roses that night at the Viper room after the gig along with Johnny Depp. Ride has always been my #1
The Stone Roses debut is my all time fave album. Never got to see them or meet them. I did see The Seahorses when they opened for blur in Portland in ‘97 or ‘98. It was a small ballroom type gig so I was right in front. blur were awesome and engaged. Damon was in the crowd, sweaty and shirtless arm in arm with us having a sing along. Sadly, John Squire never even deigned to look at us. He was so above being there he simply looked at his shoes, played his parts and walked off without a second glance. Sad.
Unfamiliar is the finest bit of shoegaze you're ever likely to hear. Hooked me the first time I heard it - in the good old days when you never knew what you had bought until you unwrapped it and put it on the turntable.
I DO believe Ride began their encore with Unfamiliar at the Metro Easter weekend 1991 on their double Bill with Lush and introduced the song as “Mad in Chicago” 😎🙃👾 quite an epic statement and I mainly came for Lush being SO unknowledgeable of Ride but I QUICKLY got into them that instant I saw them go into Dreams Burn Down upon entering the Metro...

This is so beautiful. It has the same style as Nowhere, but a bit spacier. Even though it was released halfway between Nowhere and Going Blank Again, it definitely still has their early sound. Nevermind, which greatly influenced Going Blank Again, had not blown up yet.
The next song on this UA-cam playlist has 10x the views, newer band, ok song, but not 10x better than Ride. Maybe on their level, but not better. I guess timing matters.
TRACKLIST:

3. Beneath 9:25
4. Today 13:32
You got that right.✌️
Quite possibly the best 4-song EP ever released in the history of music.
no it isn't, stop exaggerating
@@greatcoldemptiness zzzzzzz
along with the other 4 track ep's they did!!
Dunno but it is fookin mint.
I think Mesmerise by Chapterhouse can compete :^)
its great being old, and re-listening to the beloved music of your youth.
Thank you Pablo! You've got my vote 😁

Sennen is so fuckin' epic. Makes me so nostalgic for the early 90s
I visited Sennen the year this came out. Lovely beach but not as good as the song.

1st concert ever.
1987...
That band was loud .
Dope.
Great drums.
I really enjoy this kinda music. very atmospheric and sublime!
One of my favourite bands - saw them many times back then
This is an incredible 4 track e.p. I can't wait to see them next week in S.F. and Hollywood. Spent half my vacation time this year just for these shows.

@@dolson5326 are you sure you dropped enough names in that comment! lol.
Forgot how much I liked this band and these eps, in fact all of rides stuff.
Beautiful 4 ever.
Amazing bass line, if you're not moved by this sound, you're not human.
I’m not human..but really enjoy this! 🛸👽
@@davidjulesarseneau6364 😆 Nanu-nanu!
Still listening to Ride 2024
Loz is fantastic on drums
Agreed!
this ep is just diamond♥
Thanx for sharing. Sennen is one of my fav songs! I saw Ride last month in the Paradiso Amsterdam. I really LOVE those guys. Totally awesome!

Sennen is such an epic song.
Best band ever!!!
Great EP

Ride isnt the best shoegaze band but they're certainly not the worst
Where does that leave them, then, boss? Give us a little of your hierarchy. Who's above? Who's below?
@@ahbh2018 glad you asked, Here's a little bit of my hierarchy
Whose above = Deez nuts
