Longest gaps between studio albums

Of course, if My Bloody Valentine had waited a couple of years, they’d have made the original list, and walked this.

(Then again, that list has been hugely added to - Rainbow Ffolly obviously, number two now (Sonics be third now))

Yeah, I would've gone with MBV. I'll need to listen to mbv again - I thought it was fine, but I played it for like a week then forgot about it.
