Certainly MBV is one of my favourites in that genre, yes. Slowdive, Lush, Mazzy Star... that kind of thing is my "night programming" playlist.

I have been a fan of Mazzy Star for a couple of years, as well as of Hope Sandoval's solo work, she just has an awesome voice.

Lush, I only discovered about four weeks back, but I went in head over heels, they are just great.

And, yes, I agree, there is a certain affinity between this kind of music and dim lighting. It doesn't work in broad daylight. ;-)
