I know lush. Miki, Emma... Em was fuckin Kevin for a while. Yeah.. I know Vale too. But I digress. Lush..as a band were ALL studio work. Chris..who Hu g himself was a fuckin AWFUL drummer. I know coz i used to practice every Sunday with him. Crazy how he went. Killed them coz they went back years. New drums meant new phony. They couldn't.
Perfect example of 'its not WHAT you know, it's WHO you know. Lush knew people. Emma dad? Director of OXFAM. Living in a 5 story townhouse in Saint John's Wood. It's so fuckin terrible I could vomit. It killed Chris Ackland. He got HAMMERED in NME for fame chasing. Did a WHOLE 2 page article on 'the stixx man who won't fuck off' kinda thing. Dead a week later. Hung at his parents place in Lake District. 😔
@@frankystarrz Wasn't Miki's mom also an actress? Sure they were kind of inconsistent but when they landed on a good song...they nailed it. I always liked Emma's songwriting the best.
I actually bought "Ectasy and Wine" in a record store in Oslo in 89 after listening to "Isn't Anything". At first I was surprised and a bit desappointed. But I ended up loving it.
The best band of all time. This still has that jangle guitar but signature MBV sound. The songwriting was really cool on this record and the vocals are amazing.

I can't get over how much I love this compilation. Nothing compares to the feelings this thing gives. So many memories attached to just half an hour of music.
I have always thought these were criminally overlooked/underrated. Even if they had never made another record after this one, this one really scratches the particular itch when I have it... but oh, how I'm glad that they did make more records! Thanks for posting!
I'm back again. Dear god, this whole album is a masterpiece. Idc if it was a pitstop on the way to Isn't Anything and Loveless. I want to move into that pitstop and live and die there.
@@ok2760 he just doesn't like at all how they worked out their songs pre-1988, because they were recording jangly tunes in the studio, but in live performances they already were known for the extreme loudness and noisy sound and Kevin wanted to capture the live sound in a studio recording as he liked it more than the jangly songs.
Same. The college radio in SF was all over this music. I even won tickets to see them on the loveless tour. I was dating one of the DJs so that probably helped =] 🌊🏄♂️🪷
Excellent stuff, shows them in transition. Besides the obvious J&MC (and Spacemen 3) influence, a lot of similarities with indie pop bands of the era like the Primitives and the Darling Buds
For me, this album is to My Bloody Valentine what "Revoler" was to The Beatles. This is the moment they found their sound. While it is excellent, I read that Kevin Shields was of course unhappy with how it turned out, and I'd love to hear him fully develop these songs in a "Loveless" vein, production - wise, because to me, these are as good as any of their best songs.
i listened to you've got nothing while travelling at night, and oh my god... i felt like i was walking through the streets of london in 1987 and things that never happened, unknown things, i cant explain correctly, this is awesome.
what are you talking about? Seriously, site your reference. Did you hear somewhere that that’s what that was? Ive never heard that I always just assumed it was a wall of pink noise kevin created on guitar, thats how i’ve always replicated it. Im confused if your comment was genuine or if that’s just what you think the noise sounds like. Either way it’s an astute observation, just curious how literal your comment was?.
It just reminds me of people wearing black with long, unwashed hair and Doc Martin shoes (or boots). Such was the uniform of the ubiquitous 'fraggle' of yesteryear in Derry.
Hey, I wonder if anyone could share this album with me on mp3 or anything? I’ve had the CD for years and lost it in house move. It’s great that it’s here, but bugs me that this version with the added ep isn’t on the music apps I use.
Jangle Pop MBV is too damn good.
I LOVE JANGLE 😍
I remember reading somewhere that they were initially very influenced by 1960’s pop-rock music and I have to say it really suits them.
why is this not on spotify?!?! this sounds HEAVENLY
Licensing issues :( it was taken off all streaming services a couple months ago
@@catlvr-kg9ol Good. Spotify SUCKS for musicians.
Kevin Shields said he doesn't like anything they did before 1988 anymore, and that this jangle pop era was always going to be temporary anyways
Spotify is ass
@@notablelarge867who cares what kevin shields thinks? His fans like it.
can certainly hear bladee's influence on these early mbv releases, super inspirational
wtf are you talking about
@@UberGamezHD about bladees influence on these early mbv releases clearly
lmao
not funny didn't laugh
icedancer > loveless
Words can not describe how fucking amazing this band is
I couldn't have put it better.
was
Too true man❤❤❤
Never Say Goodbye has always been one of my all-time favorite songs.
Good choice.
Amazing song
best pre loveless song
Me too.
i wish it was on apple music
You can certainly hear how LUSH must’ve been a big fan of this mini-album.
yeah it's really close-the guitar treatment is way different.
@@notrub225
True, however bands worked with what gear they had and there a certainly seeds of idea there for Lush, etc.
I know lush. Miki, Emma... Em was fuckin Kevin for a while. Yeah.. I know Vale too. But I digress. Lush..as a band were ALL studio work. Chris..who Hu g himself was a fuckin AWFUL drummer.

Like the Cure covering the Byrds. Loveless will always be their best to me but this is amazing in a whole other way. So sweet and hazy
I mean, correct me if im wrong but Clair has a very similar chord progression to Eight Miles High by the Byrds :)
God don't start that man😃 it'll end up in court
😂tool
These songs are so pure and beautiful. I spent some time in the hospital just trying to get through the day, and listening to this helped immensely.
I actually bought "Ectasy and Wine" in a record store in Oslo in 89 after listening to "Isn't Anything". At first I was surprised and a bit desappointed. But I ended up loving it.
If you still have the record, it's worth a lot now!
Ugh this album is incredible. Favorite band.
Never Say Goodbye and The Things I Miss are proper jams.
i agree although i like all of it
Dejan Petrovik Ditto. I’ve slowly been listening to this more and more and it may surpass how often I listen to Loveless (if it hasn’t already).
claire is my favorite on the collection but i love those too!
The best band of all time. This still has that jangle guitar but signature MBV sound. The songwriting was really cool on this record and the vocals are amazing.
I'm a sucker for that jangly guitar
Theres no words to explain how much i love this stuff
Jangle, jangle, jangle
:-P
I describe this as their Goths on E phase. They were insane live even at this point in their career !! 🌊🪷
Bought this vinyl a long time ago at a local record shop. Still have it. Good stuff. MBV are legends.

Seeing them next month with my18 year old son. And that is xactly how I described them to him. Lols
still mad this isn’t on spotify
One of the best records ever recorded.
Yep.
It is so far behind Loveless
@@joss_ananascocos but miles better than Isn't Anything

I heard some mbv on a playlist earlier and was reminded of this long lost ep. I wonder why Spotify and Apple Music are missing this great release.
since I'm fan at parties... this is a combination of two releases (ecstasy and strawberry wine)
Two words: Kevin Shields. Expect to see this on Spotify some time around the end of the decade.
@@ok2760 he just doesn't like at all how they worked out their songs pre-1988, because they were recording jangly tunes in the studio, but in live performances they already were known for the extreme loudness and noisy sound and Kevin wanted to capture the live sound in a studio recording as he liked it more than the jangly songs.
It seems that MBV doesn't want these diamonds to be part of their official discography, for some mysterious reasons
@@xaviergautier1444 whyyy
My Bloody valentine after leaving out 3 quarters of their discography from Spotify
This has such an amazing sound with open back headphones woah.
I'll never get over this band
I am chuffed to say I own this gorgeous album both on original vinyl and CD. This album is just so, so good.
Me, too!
Same. The college radio in SF was all over this music. I even won tickets to see them on the loveless tour. I was dating one of the DJs so that probably helped =] 🌊🏄♂️🪷
I know Loveless is a masterpiece, but this is their crowning jewel in my unpopular opinion.
much underrated album of mbv
The end of She Loves You No Less 🤩😍
This EP... such joyous tunes... wish I could rewind time...
Still come back here again and again, says allot.
This magnificent collection Is a must have for everybody
I REALLY LOVE THIS EP, deserved much hype!!!!!1 MBV forever
Excellent stuff, shows them in transition. Besides the obvious J&MC (and Spacemen 3) influence, a lot of similarities with indie pop bands of the era like the Primitives and the Darling Buds
Darling Buds a wildcard pick but I hear ya
It goes back to the 60’s garage psychedelia for mbv and Nancy-Lee
Thank you MBV.
Can I Touch You? Es mi favorita ♡
amazing how every song on this is amazing
Dionysus, god of wine. The ecstasy that tears asunder.
"Love will tear us... something, something...."
Wow, ottima musica !
Thanks so much for uploading this !!
Way better rip than the one I downloaded in about 1998! Thanks!
At last someone uploaded this ! Cheers !!

MBV ARE my Beatles... And I was around when the Beatles came out.
Honestly I would rather get this remastered and more envisioned than a new album
@@loglogic7557 Such a good idea....
fits well with downer noise pop from New Zealand, like Bats and 3Ds
Exactly! Loved that genre too 🌊🏄♂️🪷
Strawberry wineeeee
sad its still not available for streaming
this is louder than most mbv stuff i found on youtube
...
nice
Just absolutely beautiful
so so so lovely!
I'm obssesed with this band
perfection 🎧
Thank for being on James' Bonds side. I love you MBV.
it makes my heart happy to know how important consent was to Kevin
Excuse me, I don´t speak english so I can´t understand the lyrics by just hearing the songs. What song do you mean by that comment?
@@edroca theyre probably talking about Can I Touch You
@@silly-putty lmao
You've Got Nothing is fantastic. That and Ecstasy and Wine.

Unpopular opinion, but I like a lot of these songs more than some of the songs on Loveless.
Your opinion is popular with me...
I always thought I was the black sheep by preferring pre-Isn't Anything
Perfection
if the things i miss came on the radio i thought it would be a jesus and mary chain song
Yeah this sounds just like Jesus and Mary Chain...
Always start to cry when listening to strawberry wine
Goddamn, Claire with that Shea Stadium screaming girls tape loop still sounds fucking amazing.

It just reminds me of people wearing black with long, unwashed hair and Doc Martin shoes (or boots). Such was the uniform of the ubiquitous 'fraggle' of yesteryear in Derry.
With a sprinkle of patchouli.
The Things I Miss is very JMC
I hear Primitives and Ride... very nice
Simplemente.. MBV me vuela la cabeza y el alma!!! 💪💪💪💪💪👍👍👍👍👍🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸
This is my life... simply, the sound of my life!!!😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
Like a more sexed up & druggy take on ‘The Pastels’ cute & jangly Anorak Pop (not a diss- I love the pastels to death)
This is my first time hearing this but Never Say Goodbye fucking slaps.

why is this not on spotify?

These early bladee albums go crazy
U can really hear the mbv influence
This was around the time they were still trying to harmonise. As though it was important.
so true

i know this is good because its making me want benzos
I’d love to hear this on some cs-1’s
