4 EP's

"[Ride's] canonical debut LP 'Nowhere' [was] released in October 1990, but they had found their way with a series of three EPs released before the arrival of Nowhere, and expanded on it with a fourth shortly after the album. In the course of a little more than a single calendar year, the band's sound grew exponentially, and in the process helped set the parameters for shoegaze on the whole. 4 EPs collects the 16 songs that made up Ride's non-album output as they barreled through the creatively unstoppable years of 1990 and 1991 ... 4 EPs showcases the band at their most raw, uncharted, and wide-eyed, capturing a type of sonic euphoria that was brand new as they created it, and still feels invigorating decades later".
