Ride Tarantula

Following their Nowhere 30th anniversary UK tour last year, shoegaze legends Ride release two more titles of their early classic albums Tarantula and Carnival of Light via Wichita Recordings. These follow last year’s reissues of Nowhere, 4EPs, and Going Blank Again from their days on Creation Records.

Tarantula the fourth and final album before their split is released on limited edition transparent orange vinyl  mispressed on black vinyl and CD, and includes three bonus tracks. All the original audio has been reworked and refined.

Recorded amid growing tensions and released after the band had split. This album is dominated by Andy Bell...there are only two songs not written by him. The band's sound is markedly different from previous efforts, being more straightforward rock than the swirling psychedelia of past efforts.
