Oxfordshire quartet Ride quickly rose to prominence in 1989, driven by the chart success of its first three EPs, the intensity of its live shows, and a hypnotic and moody sound that presaged alt-rock’s ascendance. In October 1990, the band released its first full album Nowhere, a tour de force of intertwining guitars, intimate but otherworldly vocals, and open-ended lyrics. Two decades later, the album still resonates and remains one of the era’s high-water marks.
For this anniversary edition, Rhino Handmade bolsters the 11 tracks found on the U.S. version of Nowhere with four songs from the EP Today Forever, which was released in March 1991 by Creation Records, the band’s U.K. label. Short but essential, the tracks include “Unfamiliar,” “Sennen,” “Beneath,” and one of the band’s best, “Today.”
