Secret Shine - loveblind

On a record label with no shortage of amazing records this was one of Sarah Records' all-time best single releases, Secret Shine's amazing shoegazing single that accompanied the Temporal album. This single created quite a stir back in the day, i even heard it on Radio 1 on a show not featuring John Peel! Whew!

You can see why this grabbed the attention, "Loveblind" is a wonderful blissful feedback drenched pop song. Ethereal female harmonies, pounding beat, waves of pop feedback noise, its hard to think of a better example of classic shoegaze.

I've heard the flip-side "Way too high" splits opinion a bit, it is quite a different song though shares the feedback pop noise. Its even more trippy than Loveblind with its driving melody which rolls like a helter skelter.
