Tracks list

With their first records, Ride created a unique wall of sound that relied on
massive, trembling distortion in the vein of My Bloody Valentine but with a
simpler, more direct melodic approach. The shatteringly loud, droning
neo-psychedelia the band performed was dubbed shoegazing by the British press
because the bandmembers stared at the stage while they performed. Along with
their initial influence, My Bloody Valentine, Ride stood apart from the
shoegazing pack, primarily because of their keen sense of songcraft and
dynamics. For a while, Ride were proclaimed the last great hope of British rock,
but they fell from the spotlight nearly as quickly as they entered it.

Ride were formed in Oxfordshire, England, in 1988 by guitarist/vocalist Andy
Bell, vocalist/guitarist Mark Gardener, bassist Stephan Queralt, and drummer Loz
Colbert when the group members were still in their late teens. The band soon
earned a dedicated following through its blisteringly loud, intense live shows.
Creation Records signed the band in 1989 and the group released its self-titled
debut EP later in the year. Not only did British music critics praise the Ride
EP, but it climbed into the lower reaches of the U.K. charts.

Play, Rides second EP, appeared in the spring of 1990 and it surpassed the
success of its predecessor, entering the Top 40 upon its release. Ride continued
to gain new fans and quickly became darlings of the U.K. press. Nowhere, the
groups first album, was released at the end of the year and became a significant
hit in England, peaking at number 14. The bands third EP, Fall, was released in
the summer of 1991 and became a Top 20 hit in the U.K. Ride released their
second album, Going Blank Again, in the spring of 1992. Going Blank Again was
successful -- particularly in the U.K., where first single Leave Them All Behind
went into the Top Ten -- but it didnt increase their audience dramatically.

That lack of a breakthrough success caused tensions within the band, especially
between Bell and Gardener. After completing a frustrating American tour, the
band decided to take an extended break. It would be two years before Ride
re-emerged with their third album, Carnival of Light, which represented a major
shift toward conventional psychedelic rock and turned out to be a commercial
misstep. Not only did their die-hard following dislike the record, but Ride
failed to pick up a new batch of fans with their stylistic makeover. Wounded
from a lack of sales and critical respect, the band moved to the studio in the
summer of 1995 to record its fourth album, Tarantula.

Tensions between Bell and Gardener escalated throughout the recording sessions,
and after Tarantula was completed in August 1995, Gardener left the band; Bell
followed immediately afterward. Ride announced their disbandment in January of
1996. The album was released two months later. Bell subsequently formed
Hurricane #1 and later joined Oasis as the bands bassist. Gardener and Colbert
were in the short-lived Animalhouse. More prominently, Colbert played with the
Jesus and Mary Chain and Supergrass, while Gardener performed as a solo artist
and released an album in 2005, then spent the next decade collaborating with a
variety of artists. In 2014, Ride announced that they had reunited and booked a
monthlong world tour for the following year, including an appearance at the
Primavera Sound festival. The band then returned in 2017 with its fifth album,
Weather Diaries, Rides first studio effort in 21 years. ~ Stephen Thomas
