* TearJerker: The entirety of ''Souvlaki'' can seem this way, especially with songs such as "Dagger". The RealitySubtext about the album's themes of a break up stemming from Neil Halstead and Rachael Goswell eerily hangs over the record.

* VindicatedByHistory: They got much criticism among British critics because [[SarcasmMode they had the gall to continue existing after everyone decided shoegazing was yesterday's news]] (''Melody Maker'' trashed ''Just for a Day'' as "a major fucking letdown"; the reviewer assigned ''Souvlaki'' wrote "I would rather drown choking in a bath full of porridge than ever listen to it again"), but their albums are acclaimed nowadays. It's been noted that 2017's ''[[SelfTitledAlbum Slowdive]]'' was their first full-length album to be universally critically acclaimed upon its release.
