Legendary UK shoegazers Ride have released a new album, Interaction, today via Wichita and PIAS. Now that it's out, you can stream the whole thing here. Also, yesterday we published our rave review of the album and earlier in the month we published our interview with the band about Interaction. stream the album below. Read our review of the album here and read our interview here.

Ride was formed in 1988 and still consists of guitarists/vocalists Andy Bell and Mark Gardener, drummer Laurence “Loz” Colbert and bassist Steve Queralt.

Ride previously shared the album's first single, “Peace Sign.” It was one of the songs of the week. They then shared his second single, “Last Frontier,” which was also one of the songs of the week. They then shared their third single, “Monaco,” which was #1 on our song of the week list.

Interaction is the band's third album since reforming in 2014, following 2017's Weather calendars and 2019 This is not a safe place. Ride produced the album with Richie Kennedy and Claudius Mittendorfer mixed the album.

Bell had this to say Interaction In a previous press release: “This album has been a long time in the making, and has seen the band go through many ups and downs. perhaps the most of any Ride album. But it saw us enter the process as a band in a good place, feeling able to shake off the past and ready to celebrate the combined musical talents that brought us together in the first place.”

Ride are currently on a co-headlining US tour with The Charlatans. It is something that they he did last year too. The Charlatans perform their second album released in 1992, Between 10th and 11thand Ride perform their 1990 debut album, Nowhere.
