1989–1991: Formation and early EPs
Slowdive were formed in Reading, England, by Neil Halstead and Rachel Goswell in October 1989. The two sang and played guitar, and had been friends since they were 6 years old.

Halstead stated that Slowdive wanted "to ...
Slowdive were initially dismissed by the British independent music press. While reviews of the band's early extended plays were favorable, Slowdive's reputation took a downturn with the release of their debut album, Just for a Day, which received middling reviews from publications such as Melody Maker and Select. In 1991, Richey Edwards, guitarist ...
