The album is one of the most influential ones from that era as it made shoegaze a genre, even though it reached No 11 in UK Charts.

The Ride’s tour has been delayed due to pandemics and will now kick off on 21st April in Sheffield and up in London’ Roundhouse. Also next year, the band’s planning to release their catalogue albums via Wichita. More details on that matter are to be confirmed.

After the Ride’ last album of the 90’s Tarantula, the band reformed and released Weather Diaries in 2017. The album was produced by Erol Alkan and received great critical acclaim, reaching No11 in charts. The bad reunite with Dick Green and Mark Bowen from Wichita Records, who worked with the band at the beginning of their career. 

Latest Ride’s album from 2019 This Is Not A Safe Place reached No7 on charts, their highest chart position. It also showed “the sound of a band embracing their new found creativity and rejuvenated dynamic“. The band once again worked with producer Erol Alkan and sound engineer Alan Mulder, who helped with a few other Ride’s productions: Weather Diaries,  Going Blank Again and Nowhere.

The Ride’s sixth studio album release has been announced with a first single “Future Love” on 23 April 2019. It received critical praise with four stars from NME calling it full of “wealth of creativity and experimentation“. In their 6.5 mark review, Pitchfork said: “is not, in the end, the classic Ride Mark 2 release that its first three songs so casually tease. But it has enough joy, verve and invention to suggest that Ride could get there one day”.

“If we let it, music can take us anywhere we want it to; it can affect us as we desire: music can douse the flames of anger, clear the clouds of sadness, make us whole. Since their reunion in 2014, Ride has surrendered to the influences that made it one of Britain’s top acts of the late ‘80s and early ‘90s, and with it brought back a quality sorely missed in music today“.
