yeah see i don't get that, although the guy is a meticulous perfectionist. he also preferred the CD format for the segues between tracks on Loveless as well as the Tremelo EP...but to me Loveless still sounds awesome, apparently 16 engineers were killed in its production, or something. And on the MBV forums, ironically, people argue that the vinyl pressings are superior...
 
'Isn't Anything' however, *did* warrant remastering. By the way whether readers are familiar with MBV or not, they have recently played their first live shows in 16 years and they are honestly one of those bands you simply must experience live, if you get the chance. They are also colossally loud, so keep a tight grip on the earplugs they have been handing out at some shows, or better still take your own. I managed ok without but it's not something i would recommend risking to anyone else  ;-)

Quoting Simon Glass <tygerbc@yahoo.com>:

"(rather like Kevin Shield's surely unnecessary remaster, in 2
versions,
of My Bloody Valentine's 'Loveless')"

  I just pulled out the 1991 NME where they interviewed MBV on the
release of Loveless - in that Shields says he wouldn't release on vinyl
if he didn't have to and wishes that CDs sounded better, as he's not
happy with the sound of Loveless on either format...
