My Bloody Valentine reunion confirmed*

Kevin Shields, the mercurial and elusive leader of My Bloody Valentine, confirmed that the legendary band has reunited in the studio for the first time since 1995, recorded new material, and that an album release is forthcoming, possibly as soon as this year. In an exclusive interview set to air Monday, Nov. 12 on VBS.tv, Shields speaks at length with Ian Svenonious on Soft Focus about his career and art, including some tantalizing hints about the next phase of My Bloody Valentine.

When The Daily Swarm first reported on the upcoming My Bloody Valentine reunion in August, their sources insisted on remaining anonymous, and Kevin Shields’ own statements came only in the form of fans’ personal encounters culled from a variety of message boards. Some accused TDS of rumormongering, but were confident in their work and that after years of false starts and dashed hopes, one of the most innovative guitar bands (second only to SY) of all time was truly gearing up for a return to action.
