  2. PALE SAINTS
    In Ribbons (30th Anniversary Re:Masters)
    2023 Worldwide Remastered Reissue

    A masterpiece of the #shoegaze genre.
    I have as much reverence for this as I do Ride’s Nowhere or Slowdive’s Souvlaki.

    This remaster is phenomenal sounding! Clearer and louder, but not in any off-putting way. It’s very tastefully done, and it sounds the best it’s ever sounded.

    The odd time signatures on a few of the songs has always been its most endearing quality for me. The guitars are great (super trippy and psych sounding), but it’s those rhythmic structures that have always stood out most.

    “Ordeal” is mind-bendingly heavy and massive, “Throwing Back The Apple” is jangly and pastoral, and “Thread Of Light” features a beautiful vocal Meriel Barham.

    Their final, and what I think is their BEST record.
    I know I’m in the minority there, but it is.

  3. Despite Meriel Barham leaving Lush due to musical differences, Pale Saints and Lush would often perform together and remain close friends to this very day

  4. Leeds-based band The Pale Saints featuring the talents of original vocalist for Lush Meriel Barham and later the journeywoman bassist Colleen Browne. “Blue Flower” (youtu.be/hazYYBSdTeI?si=foJGvc) / NO STROBE (youtu.be/4XULlC06IrU?si=59jGwQ) is from 1992’s “In Ribbons” (youtube.com/playlist?list=PL2p). The band called it quits in 1996 but every member continues to make music behind the scenes to this day.

  5. Ha tiens ? A la faveur de l'écoute de la compilation des BBC Sessions de #Ride, je me souviens qu'en effet, ils reprennent le Sight Of You des #PaleSaints. Classe cômême.

  6. Pale Saints - Slow Buildings

    Don't let the hilariously bad cover put you off, nor that fact that Ian Masters left after In Ribbons... Slow Buildings is a better album than its reputation.

    Meriel Barham (originally from Lush, way back in their history) had joined a while before, and steps into the spotlight here, adding sweet vocals atop the darker instrumentals.

    30th anniversary release, which adds EP tracks and the like.

  7. J'échangeais avec la mère de ma fille hier soir au sujet de la formation du groupe anglais #Tropico (aka #Oasis), et elle me disait qu'elle était #TeamBlur
    Perso, à l'époque, j'écoutais déjà #TheLas, #TheStoneRoses, #PaleSaints, #WorldOfTwist, #TheCharlatans ou encore #Ride et #Lush, et j'accrochais pas à Blur, donc le combat Blur/Oasis m'a été totalement inconnu, je trouvais ça ridicule. Néanmoins, contrairement au groupe de Carlos, il y a une chanson de Blur que j'adore et que je peux écouter en boucle :

    #Blur • I Know (extended version) (Parlophone, 1990)

  8. Vue la météo du jour, c'est parti pour un marathon #IanMasters et #WarrenDefever avec pour commencer #ESPSummer, puis ce sera #SpoonfedHybrid (tout aussi délicat que ESP Summer) et je terminerai par le premier #PaleSaints, dont la réédition des 30 ans est une pure merveille, et enfin les albums de #HisNameIsAlive que j'ai. Ça devrait m'occuper toute la journée.

  9. Hooooooooooooooo !

    #Disque du jour, bonjour !

    ESP Summer • Mars is a ten (Karina Square 1995, Disciples 2023)

    hisnameisalive.bandcamp.com/al

    Je découvre ce matin, à la faveur de l'annonce de la sortie d'un coffret #HisNameIsAlive que le plus que sublime album "Mars is a ten" de E.S.P. Continent (aka #ESPSummer, aka, #WarrenDefever aka His Name Is Alive + #IanMasters aka ex-#PaleSaints) a été réédité en vinyle ! Wow ! L'un des plus beaux disques que j'ai écouté dans ma vie, un mélange de #pop, #rock, et je ne sais quoi, je l'écoute toujours avec émotion tellement il est beau. Un des plus beaux duos de la musique si vous voulez mon avis.

  10. Via a post from his most recent band, sad news that Graeme Naysmith, who first came to attention as the guitarist and one of the cofounders of #PaleSaints, has sadly passed on. For that beautiful sonic crush of "Sight Of You" alone -- and much more -- a real loss. #music facebook.com/groups/3826480473

  11. Pale Saints - In Ribbons

    Pale Saints was slotted in the "shoegaze" set - probably because it was guitar driven with relatively low-mixed vocals. But it's more Slowdive than My Bloody Valentine.

    In Ribbons is when they added Meriel Barham (from early Lush)...and not long before they broke up.

    It's been 30 years since this came out, which is a bit hard to believe... new remaster sounds good, well pressed - happy to have a nice copy.

  12. A little belated from last week but here's the #Shfl update from then, with an LA Beat Scene guide from #NatePatrin and reviews from #JeffTreppel, #HaroldHeath, #JonDale, #RickAnderson, #ChrisCatchpole and #AndyBeta. My own reviews cover #KMRU, the #ThirdMind, the #LunaSequence and reissues from #Hydroplane and the #PaleSaints. #music news.theshfl.com/p/shfl-update

  13. #Upcoming #PaleSaints’ 1992 album “In Ribbons” is finally getting the 30th Anniversary celebration it deserves! The first disc features the UK version of the original LP, with the second being a bonus disc of never before heard demos. Available via #4AD, October 6th. palesaints.bandcamp.com/album/

  14. Hey very nice, #4AD announcing a reissue of #PaleSaints' #InRibbons, a quite lovely album and #IanMasters's last with them (saw them on tour then with #Ride). I say get it through #Bandcamp this Friday. A slew of bonus demos plus those two brass band versions from the original 7" bonus single.#music #shoegaze palesaints.bandcamp.com/album/

  16. Almost every year, when I see fennel blooming, I have to make a certain picture.

    It's never the same, and it's never yet been satisfactory.

    In my mind is a song, A Thousand Stars Burst Open by Pale Saints. I hear it as an image, and try to make it.

    This year, this is it.

    It's not satisfactory, not what I imagine. Not what I hear.

    Next year, I'll try again.

  17. In another universe I have a fan website for Pale Saints instead of Galaxie 500 and have eight copies of The Comforts of Madness instead of Today (I only have the two copies - my original CD and this lovely double LP from a couple of years back)

  18. Meantime, one for the #shoegaze vets because the mighty #IanMasters from the #PaleSaints many moons back continues his deeper explorations into avant-pop with #TimKoch as #IsolatedGate, and their own debut album is a damn treat. #music isolatedgate.bandcamp.com/albu

  19. Listening to Pale Saints this morning. What an underrated band. Their small but mighty catalogue is stacked with gems. Discovered quite by accident that Sight of You sounds AMEEEZING on 33! (The tru sign of a quality track)
