I'm so happy to see this posted here ... it's not the usual kind of story I see on HN. Slowdive is one of my favorite bands and remains in heavy rotation on my ipod to this day. There were rumors a few months ago that they might be getting back together for a tour. Although I enjoy Neil Halstead's solo releases and Rachel's solo release, I'd love to see a new Slowdive album.

They did.[0]

My favourite album of theirs is Pygmalion, though, which is much more like Talk Talk's late stuff or something like that. I'm guessing they're sticking to the Souvlaki era stuff now, for top nostalgia-reunion value. Good band, still.

Agreed. Pygmalion was/is an incredible record.
