Where this album fits
- Career context
- Released in 2004, 'Catch the Breeze' marked Slowdive's return after a nearly decade-long hiatus since their last studio album, 'Pygmalion'. This collection of tracks showcases both their signature dreamy sound and previously unreleased material, re-establishing them in the shoegaze scene during a time when nostalgia for 90s alternative music was resurging.
