The Sundays – Blind (Vinyl LP)

Dreamy, delicate and quietly captivating, Blind captures The Sundays at their most enchanting. Released in 1992, the band's second album builds on the shimmering guitar work and ethereal vocals that made their debut so distinctive, creating a collection of jangling indie pop, wistful melodies and beautifully understated songwriting. Harriet Wheeler's unmistakable voice floats above David Gavurin's intricate guitar arrangements, giving the record an almost weightless quality that feels worlds away from the grunge-heavy sounds dominating the era.

From the shimmering cover of “Wild Horses” to the infectious warmth of “Love” and the understated beauty of “Goodbye”, the album balances melancholy with an effortless sense of lightness. There's a timeless quality to The Sundays' music — thoughtful without being heavy, romantic without being sentimental. Blind remains a treasured release of the early nineties alternative scene, perfect for fans of dream pop, jangly guitars and music that feels like a hazy summer afternoon.
