My Bloody Valentine Reuniting and releasing a new album

Yesterday I did an album review of Loveless by My Bloody Valentine. The album was the last studio album from the band, and shortly there after the band went on indefinite hiatus. It’s been almost 10 years since any new music has been released or a show played. In the early part of 2007 it was announced by Kevin Shields that the band had gotten back together to write some new material. The details were sorted at best, and left allot of questions as to what was actually going on. It has now been confirmed that not only is an album on the way but that it is about 75% complete. To add to this news, the band has also announced that they will be playing shows in mid 2008. They will be all UK dates, but they have stated that there is a desire to have a world tour in support of the new album, which is yet to have a title. With the new album, the band also plans to release a compilation of there early material as well as unreleased music and some possible b-sides.
