Various Artists - Celebrate Yourself: The Sonic Cathedral Story 2004 / 2024 Various Artists

4 CD A limited-edition 4CD box set released to coincide with the cult shoegaze label’s 20th anniversary. It features 62 tracks, many of which are previously unreleased, plus rare remixes, showstopping live recordings and a shoegaze Christmas compilation. Includes Slowdive, Andy Bell (Ride), Emma Anderson (Lush), bdrmm, Whitelands and deary, plus remixes by Andrew Weatherall, James Holden, David Holmes, Daniel Avery and many more. Across the four discs, the box set tells the story of Sonic Cathedral from its humble beginnings as a club night in 2004 to its present-day position at the centre of the never-ending shoegaze revival, after playing a huge part in repopularising the once maligned genre over the past two decades.
