Ride

Between 1988 and 1996, seminal shoegaze outfit Ride released four albums, all now classics of the genre, and then broke up during Britpop's ascendency (which the band foreshadowed with a pop sensibility many of its peers lacked). The band reunited for a tour in 2015, and this year it's coming stateside again with more good news: A new release is in the works. Ride's first album in nearly two decades, Weather Diaries, is due out June 16 and if the initial singles, "Charm Assault" and "Home is a Feeling," are any indication, the foursome hasn't missed a beat.
