	featured news Kevin Shields Confirms My Bloody Valentine Rumors Thu, 08 Nov 2007 09:14:35 New album due out this year (maybe) While rumors of a Coachella 2008 appearance are still up in the air, Kevin Shields has finally cleared up some of the speculation over a supposed My Bloody Valentine reunion. In an exclusive 30-minute interview with former Make-Up/Nation of Ulysses frontman Ian Svenonious—set to air on the VBS.tv show Soft Focus next Monday—Shields says the band has been working on songs they started around their 1995 breakup, as well as some new noise-pop jams. "We were making a record in the '90s—around when the band broke up in 1995 ... and I continued with [co-vocalist/guitarist] Bilinda [Butcher]," Shields explains. "[Our next release] is going to be this half-finished record finished, and then a compilation of stuff we did before that in 1993–94, and a little bit of new stuff. I pretty much know what the one that's going to come out this year is going to sound like because its already three-fourths done ... it sounds like what we sounded like—different but not radically different. People will go, 'Yeah, it sounds like My Bloody Valentine'." As if that description wasn't confusing enough, Shields doesn't allude to a release date, label or format for any MBV material. According to thedailyswarm.com, "it is possible that the album will see an independent, Internet-only, Radiohead-style release, and a release date could be announced at any time." Possible but not certain, so we suggest viewing Soft Focus to draw your own conclusions, as well as digest tidbits from members of Crass, Primal Scream, The Specials, Happy Mondays and Blur in future episodes. —The ARTISTdirect Staff 11.08.07 ...Back to News Home     more ARTISTdirect news Kevin Shields Confirms My Bloody Valentine Rumors Thu, 08 Nov 2007 09:14:35 Avril Lavigne Takes the 'Best Damn Thing' On Tour Wed, 07 Nov 2007 16:58:50 New Radiohead LP Draws Mostly Free Downloads Wed, 07 Nov 2007 09:18:16 Les Savy Fav Announces Rare Round of Shows Wed, 07 Nov 2007 08:43:35 Brain Surgery Causes Roseanne Cash Cancellations Wed, 07 Nov 2007 08:18:23 Vice Records Snag The Raveonettes Wed, 07 Nov 2007 08:06:02 The White Stripes Tease Fans With New Tracks Tue, 06 Nov 2007 16:32:18 Interview: Hard-Fi Tue, 06 Nov 2007 10:53:35 Former Soul Coughing Singer Finishes Fifth Solo LP Tue, 06 Nov 2007 10:32:02 The Magnetic Fields Map Out Winter Tour Tue, 06 Nov 2007 08:46:01  more alternative rock Angels & Airwaves I-Empire 11/06/2007    $11.99  London After Midnight Violent Acts of Beauty 11/06/2007    $12.99  Barenaked Ladies Talk to the Hand: Live in Michigan 11/06/2007    $19.99  Luna Halo Luna Halo 10/30/2007    $11.99  Taking Back Sunday Notes from the Past 10/30/2007    $13.99  KMFDM Tohuvabohu 08/21/2007    $12.99  Eisley Combinations 08/14/2007    $11.99  Recoil subHuman 08/14/2007    $11.99  more alternative rock albums
