Irish Thought for May 11...

Irish Musicians

My Bloody Valentine

An alternative rock band from Dublin, founded in 1983 by Kevin Shields, who does guitar and vocals, and Colm Ó Cíosóig, who is the drummer, and later expanded to include Bilinda Butcher on guitar and vocals and Debbie Googe on bass.  As the band's music evolved, their use of distortion, droning rifts, and reverb resulted in a sound that became very influential in the UK movement, known as "shoegazing."
