A small step up from "This Is Your Bloody Valentine", "Geek!" is average punk / post-punk at best. What killed MBV's earlier work was Conway's vocal resemblances to singers such as Ian Curtis and Glenn Danzig. On "Moonlight" Conway's voice is so deep he starts to sound like a "death-bed country icon". However, Conway isn't My Bloody Valentine's Fred Durst (they don't even have one). He's simply not that bad. The pivotal moment for Conway (as well as the the release as a whole) is the fun sex-appeal of "Love Machine". Sadly, Kevin Shields back-up vocals outweigh Dave's vocals in terms of quality not relevance to the song. It makes one wonder if MBV's earlier work would have been superior if they were an "oh-ah" band. At least they'd be using the "voice is an instrument" idea used on "Loveless".

My Bloody Valentine的第一张全长度专辑《Isn´t Anything》,几乎可以说重新定义了90年代初的吉他流行音乐,并且确立了他们作为Shoegazing流派的奠基人的地位,和Sonic Youth、Pixies这些前grunge乐队一样对之后的音乐产生了不同寻常的影响。尽管用Kevin的话来说,他门自己都不清楚自己到底在做什么,也不确定他们的音乐会怎样发展(较谦虚)但不能否认的是,他们对于吉他噪音的试验态度的确为后继者开启了一扇大门,也让无数乐迷认识到所谓“噪音”也可以如此之美,乐评则用"beauty under siege"和“来自幽冥的声音”来形容他们的音乐。

在80年代末至90年代,英国出现了纯粹以吉他噪音实验为目标的乐队与风格,并且获得了相当大的成功,在英国独立摇滚中可谓独树一帜。敏感的乐评人称这一类音乐风格为“自赏摇滚”(Shoe-gazing)。“自赏摇滚”这一名称很是贴切,既包涵了乐队的音乐风格,又暗示了乐队特立独行的生活态度。 My Bloody Valentine就是这类摇滚的代表人物,Loveless是该乐队的第三张专辑,被公认为是该乐队最成功的代表作,在世界范围内都有巨大影响,这张专辑和乐队名称甚至一起出现在了经典游戏Final FantasyVII的片头CG里。
