Ride are reunited! | World Tour Scheduled for 2015!

 The shoegaze reunions are in full swing ever since Slowdive’s return earlier this year.  Creation Records posted a photograph this morning of a Ride poster—along with caption, “Ride Reunion 2015 photo from Primavera this morning,” including a #RideReunion hashtag.
