My Bloody Valentine were an Irish-British shoegazing rock band. They formed in 1984 in Dublin and continued into the early 1990s. Original members were guitarist/singer Kevin Shields and drummer Colm O"Ciosoig. Lineup during heyday also included singer-guitarist Bilinda Butcher and bassist Debbie Googe. Though they released a handful of EPs during the mid-1980s, only their two official albums Isn"t Anything (1988) and Loveless (1991), are considered representative of their sound: a distinct blend of noise rock, ambience, and off-kilter pop. The thick, swirling, multi-layered guitar sound pioneered by My Bloody Valentine would later be termed shoegazer by the British press, a tag that would be applied to a number of new-coming alternative pop-rock or rock outfits of similarly heavily layered and distorted guitars and soft, hushed vocals. The songs were written by Shields and generally featured Bilinda Butcher"s vocals, except for "Touched," a short instrumental by Colm O"Ciosoig. In 1999 Pitchforkmedia declared Loveless to be the greatest album of the 1990s, and Kevin Shields is thought by some to be a sonic genius capable of unmatched noise, all the while retaining a keen melody. After leaving Creation Records in 1992 and signing with Island Records, the band fell into a creative black hole. Debbie Googe left the band to form Snowpony; she had not played bass on their recordings since You Made Me Realise. Colm O"Ciosoig eventually left and recorded an album with Hope Sandoval of Mazzy Star. Kevin Shields sporadically collaborated with other artists, most notably Experimental Audio Research, Curve, and Primal Scream. He revealed in a fall 2003 National Public Radio interview that Island Records quit financing his My Bloody Valentine endeavours after he spent a half-million pounds of their money.
