Thierry Jourdain - My Bloody Valentine, Tempus Fugit (Book)
My Bloody Valentine is one of the most important British bands of the eighties and nineties. After several years of experimentation, it was in 1988, with the album Isn't Anything that the group established its distinctive voice. In 1991, MBV definitively forged a new sound with Loveless, a cornerstone of rock. Viewed as a genius by some and a madman by others, Kevin Shields, who wrote most of the songs, freed himself from deadlines and accountability to anyone. Twenty-two years to deliver a successor to Loveless (m b v, 2013), followed by almost nothing since, apart from the constant promise of new records whose releases keep being postponed. My Bloody Valentine - Tempus Fugit traces the unusual journey of an unprecedented band in an attempt to unravel the mystery behind its mythology.
