Not Like Later MBV April 8, 2008

This EP is great, don't get me wrong. But if you buy this EP expecting it to sound like Isn't Anything, or Loveless you're very much mistaken. This EP was released before MBV lost their minds (in a good way) and started playing around with the guitar sounds they would come to be known by. The songs are very well written, but they're more pop-rock and only shoegaze in spirit.
Great EP November 3, 2007
This is one of the two EPs released before Loveless, the other being Glider, and truth be told, it's absolutely essential. "To Here Knows When" is evoked in all its incandescent glory here, with a more fitting ambient outro. "Swallow" is a blur of Eastern strings and jangly British guitars, and "Honey Power" borrows the four-to-the-floor propulsion of American grunge. "Moon Song" is a bit of a throwaway, a lesser version of Isn't Anything's "All I Need," but it's still worth hearing on occasion. Tremolo is a fitting companion to Loveless, and considering MBV's frustrating silence since, any scrap of their genius is well worth procuring.

You get a couple of tracks that are not on the album "Loveless" but the same time frame.Awesome!

For those starved and still pining for a follow up to Loveless, the EP/Single Tremolo may be as close to it as we'll ever get. The four songs included here are, for lack of a better word, excellent. "To Here Knows When" is the same version found on Loveless, only with a different ending, a better ending in fact - feathery and ephemeral. B-sides "Swallow" and "Honey Power" are worth adding this EP to your collection alone. The latter is 4:33 of My Bloody Valentine-goodness. "Moon Power" is an oddity, a melange of interesting noise. If anything Tremolo is a bitter sweet reminder of just how breathtakingly gifted My Bloody Valentine was. Buy it. Download it. Just hear it. Allow yourself to fall under MBV's beautiful thrall once again.

TREMOLO is a little better then the EP GLIDER, but it still feels a little expensive at seven or eight dollars. This EP clocks in at slightly under twenty minutes, and one of the songs on this disc is an almost exact version of a track from LOVELESS (it has an extended ending, which is pretty sweet, but besides that, the tracks are identical). If you own LOVELESS, there is no real reason to buy this EP (unless you're a hardcore Valentine fan such as myself). You'll only be getting about 15 minutes of new songs, and although they ("Swallow" and "Honey Power" are among the better tracks) are better then any of the songs off of the EP GLIDER, they're still below anything on LOVELESS or ISN'T ANYTHING. Don't get me wrong, this EP is excellent, it's just not worth the price.
