I love Kevin's face when he mentions making the new album, there's something in that smile that knows how much the fans really wanted it

Colm's biggest regret in life must be not having made it to the recording sessions of Loveless. Dude. That's one massive way to miss out. But at least he was able to play in "Only Shallow".

had the fantastic pleasure of meeting kevin,colm,debbie and bilinda earlier this year! coolest buncha people around!

The decibel levels took years off my hearing. I'm still suffering after the gig last summer. Man, I should have used the earplugs.

Who cares if they've aged? It's the music that matters the most!

lol look at colm's face at the end... new album? yeah right! I've been hearing this shit for 20 years!

Saw them twice on their current tour, including Benicassim. They have been totally magic both times..

I hope they do come back some day with at least one more album. Though unlike others, I'm not in any rush. They're obviously just taking their time. If they did come back, I can imagine just how huge it'll be. It'd remind everyone just how stunning their music is.

Waiting for a new My Bloody Valentine album is like waiting for Shenmue 3.

The song is Map Ref. 41N 93W. It's a Wire cover, but I downloaded it, and made it TRACK 1 of the MBV album. That's how it should have been. Map Ref deserves to be the first track of this album. Now I can appreciate it. :)

3:40 "I'm gonna finish off that old record from the 90s" This hits different 13 years later, as we already have m b v available :O

Once in a generation band!

"There was always going to be another record." I've heard them say this many, many times. COME ON, MBV. WE'VE BEEN WAITING SOOOO LONG . . .

life changing band.

Colom is hammered lol

I love them! finally I saw an interview with Colm talking in it =)

well it finally came, like he always said!

Where is the new album?? They reformed and lifted my hopes, i really hope for the best and more touring!!

i'm thinkin' McCartney and Lennon after a ruff life!

@accidentsinspace Well, I regret to inform you... the aging process and a change in hairstyle can alter one's appearance. But on a more serious note, Colm does seem more animated than his photos from the 90s would suggest.

oh Kevin, bless him

kevinteamo

those guys seem so laid back and cool

They should have a 2008 photo session. Then we can see the whole band and judge their aging process.

"That'll happen..........some day". Wonder if it'll be in the next 20 years? :)It fuckin better be!

@dogeymon83 yeah map ref has always been one of their dopest tracks. The most "songlike" of their songs by far.

Yea I was there @ APW. It was great cuz MBV didn't stop the "lift-off" noise-rock part of there ending til all the Tool fans put down there fingers haha! it was brillant!

I dunno - they both look pretty good for, what, their mid-40s? Also, a bit sheepish about how long it takes them to do anything, and a nice look Colm shoots Kevin about how "underplayed" their songs are.

Yeah, Colm is surprisingly expressive. The dynamics between Kevin and Colm are interesting in this interview. Colm seems like the little brother who can't quite agree with everything Kevin says, but he's diplomatic about it.

With different hairstyles, they could almost be Siskel & Ebert.

You gotta smile when Kevin says at 3:47 they'll definitely make another album. Oh, really? I thought that's what he's been working on for the past 18 years! OK, maybe 10 of those 18...

*heavy breathing* qt pies *wheezing* geniuses. It is statistically likely that I have breathed in the same air that these guys once breathed. ☆The world is a nice place again☆

time has come

❤️❤️❤️

He looks quite well for a 45 year old guy that has smoked and got stoned/drunk as much as he has...

yeah, i was at that show in nj where mbv opened for tool, and those people were straight up rude, no facts need to be checked there, unless you want to check the mud that was caked on you at that shithole of a venue, if you were even there

@whilwheaton colm looks the same , but lembit opik has donned a wig and replaced kev shields

Whoa, Kevin's aged alot man. Oh well, he's still awesome.

when? man i have been waiting since i was a wee lad

sweet jesus 20 years makes you look older

I noticed that too really. Compare it to the other interview from back in 88. Just search it and you'll see

"we could put out the stuff from the 90's" (rolls eyes)"Yeah, we could."

i love tool and i love my blody valentine

I say that Colm has really aged, but that's probably because I haven't seen many images of him since the early 90s.

@cardigansarecool I like both those bands :/

I love it, I think it shows a new side to them. The only one I dislike is 'nothing is'.

I have seen Kevin Shields, in the flesh.

uh nah nme, vice already got shields in an interview.

I saw Kevin looks like my ex, William. Those both have that baby face.

These MBV interviews are so pointless. All they ever talk about is touring. Kevin is like a wall, he never gives any insight into his music. That being said, they are gods.

Why all the Tool hate? Tool and MBV are both great bands. To say either of them aren't good is blasphemy, though you can have your opinions. But Tool kinda started out when grunge was still underground, and they are not even grunge, so I wouldn't call 'em "shitty post-grunge music". And MBV were a big inspiration for Tool in their early days..

Kevin looks the same, Colm looks very different :) but what the hell are they talking about........

well said

in hindsight of their new album, what do you think? :)

I remember when the NME put them on the cover just before their last album was about to come out and after they'd signed to a major and the whole world was feting their brilliance and they acted like they had juust discovered something. People say the NME has turned into a load of shit but it was always a load of shit. People just forget.

certainly totally different caliber of band and music....why do you think there called tool anyway

fuckin cheer up,,,, its ok,,,

Christ!!! He looks like he's about 60.

does kevin seem out of it? lol.

Both great bands, I couldn't give a shit about their fans. They don't pick them.

glad to see kevin isn't looking so plump anymore

@SuperTlss ? you dont like dance music? or are you just like a british guy who likes acid house? i always assume everyone i talk to about mbv is from the UK area

What? you mean to say Disintegration WASN'T the best cure album? C'mon...you can't be serious.

so who is it then? the Reverend Ian Paisley? Father Dougal? Oscar Wilde? pray, elighten us.

how did MBV play at a tool show? thats a wierd combo to play at one show, i love both bands, but still doesnt match

Chromatics are playing in the background

wheres the girls?!

Of course i know that. Even if i somehow hadnt the guy I replied to mentioned it first sentence lol. Anyway the cover is more melodic and songlike than the wire orig i think

What more can they say? that theyre going to adopt a kid from zimbabwe?

god damn they got old

lmfao how the hell u connect those two!? thats funny tho

what? this is a fashion show? Damn...I thought it was about the music

Of course, but I have a obsession with the aging process of human beings.

jeez i guess they don't really have anything to say after all.

Yeah, well I don't mean to be rude. I shouldn't have said it sucks because that's not exactly how I feel about it. It just didn't live up to expectations, especially waiting so long. Your first track of your album should always be amazing. Instead, it started off with a mopey sounding drone song. :( Another sad realization I discovered recently is the best song I've heard by My Bloody Valentine isn't even theirs. It's a cover. It's like some weird titled song. Map 43* ^ 48* somethin

@YellowNBoy >implying dubstep is good BWHAHAHAHAHHHAHAHAHAHAH

except it's not theirs

Loveless was a one off. Now I hear they are going to fuck it up

ads suck

@cardigansarecool Tool fans are so notoriously awful that even Tool hates them. Which, incidentally, is the only positive thing about Tool.

Oh dear... Car crash

Yeah it came.... and it sucks sadly. Not what I expected, at least. Not gonna be a favorite album of theirs. Hope they make one more soon.

i really like MBV, but these guys are boring to listen to. Not their forte, not what they're about, but not a good video.

oh god..what a pointless interview..giving away zero as usual..no new music,no remastered albums,zilch...
