Product Description
From Amazon.com
Ride was an essential element of the wall-of-sound, trippy, melodic shoe-gazing movement of the early '90s. Nowhere is their best album and is one of the prettiest albums of that era. Songs are psychedelic wash of reverberation, and ghostly, passive vocal melodies. Born from the womb of My Bloody Valentine distortion, Ride tempers their sound with an easier melody, reaching across to the pop spectrum. "Vapour Trail" stands out as the leader of the pack--a gorgeous song that floats and drones in and out of your head like a cleansing fog. --Beth Bessmer
Album Description
UK digitally remastered reissue of the British indie act's debut album (1990) with four bonus tracks added:'Unfamiliar', 'Sennen', 'Beneath' & 'Today' in addition to the classics, 'Taste', 'Dreams Burn Down' & 'Vapour Trail'. The four bonus tracks are the four cuts from Ride's deleted 1990 EP 'Today Forever', making this even more essential to fans and latecomers. Ignition. 2006.

5.0 out of 5 stars
Ride's most greatest sound.,
This review is from: Nowhere (Audio CD)
Though Nowhere isn't the blast of great rock that Going Blank Again is, it's rich in Rickenbacker fuzz that was evolving to something different by the next album. The rich guitars parts appear to be simple at first but another listen reveals layers of subtle yet brillant guitar tracks. By establishing a solid melody Ride is able to throw a maze of other musical lines in without ever losing the songs structure. The best song here is Vapour Trail with its ultra jangled 12string rythem. The rest of the album has made it one of my all time favorite albums with Ride's trademark blending of vocals and guitars. Notice some definate Smiths influence on Paralyzed.

This review is from: Nowhere (Audio CD)
Those drums are the very thunder of irritated gods, I tell you. Laurence Colbert's kit sounded like giants battling in a cavern, and guitarists Andy Bell and Mark Gardener stretched old-fashioned jangle into heavenly drone and walls of breathtaking feedback. Bassist Steve Queralt was the axis that everything swirled around, and he kept it all tethered as best as he could. Opener "Seagull" is the ultimate musical bloodrush, an army of guitars fanning out as the bass snaps to and the drums clear away any opposition. "Polar Bear" is a stunning climax, freezing Bell and Gardener's everyman harmonies in a vault of ice that Colbert ultimately shatters. The real stunner, though, is "Vapour Trail", a masterful swath of guitar condensation arcing across the pop stratosphere that simply defies gravity. Nowhere was Ride's greatest achievement, and remains one of the greatest statements of the UK's shoegazer movement.
