Slowdive, the British indie-rock band, has overcome early career backlash and is currently celebrated for their unique sound. Recently, they performed to an enthusiastic crowd in Oakland, showcasing their blend of shoegaze, dream pop, and ambient music. Initially dismissed by critics in the 90s, the band disbanded after three albums. However, revisiting trends in the shoegaze genre allowed Slowdive's music to resonate with newer generations, leading to their successful reunion in 2014 and the positive reception of their latest albums, including the 2023 release, 'Everything Is Alive.'
âI would rather drown choking in a bath full of porridge than ever listen to (Slowdive's 'Souvlaki' album from 1993) again.â
âSlowdive regrouped in 2014... The group's 2017 self-titled outing - it's first in 22 years - wound up making it onto several publications' best-of-the-year lists.â
