#684 Ride – Nowhere

Posted on by anoceanroars

I have never heard of the band Ride. They released their album Nowhere in 1990 to critical acclaim. It was an important release in shoegazing genre. I do like this genre so I have some hope to like the album.

The best songs are “In a Different Place“, “Polar Bear”, “Dreams Burn Down“, and probably my favourite one “Vapour Trail“. I will have to listen to them again.

This was another one of those hard albums to rate. I liked it in full, but I found it more difficult to dissect the songs individually. I think most of the songs were not the type that hook you on one or two listens. I think this an album that grows on the listeners. 10/10.

…and i hate writing about myself. It feels awkward. Or i am a bit awkward and rather not write about it. i have not got a clue where to begin or end… …at this very moment i am a recent graduate of Colorado State University. i live in Longmont, Colorado, which i next to Boulder. Boulder is where all hipsters live. See, this crap is rather boring. i moved here from Budapest, Hungary four years ago, well, actually that is sort of a lie. i was living in Lyon, France one year before i moved to Colorado and before that Hungary. i like to travel or move. i keep moving… i have many interest besides moving: writing, watching, taking, listening and reading (stories, films, photographs, music and books).
