melbourne's three month sunset (who recently changed their name to lowtide, though i don't think they've released anything under the new name yet) put out this lovely (but very heavily in debt to slowdive) EP last year.. it's good

Holy shit. I just found this release:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000O77KH0/ref=s9_simh_gw_p15_d0_i1?pf_rd_m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&pf_rd_s=center-2&pf_rd_r=1TBSKHEE2B1ETV29E3EW&pf_rd_t=101&pf_rd_p=470938631&pf_rd_i=507846
It really has some beautiful tunes on there. Interested in hearing the newer album. Someone let me know if they also think this is great.

had a listen to their EP on emusic, sounds nice
― karajan camping (electricsound), Thursday, 13 January 2011 23:14 (thirteen years ago) link
Yeah, its a really solid EP. It is always much more fun when you find something you know nothing about, and it turns out to be super good.

Hmm, like the cover.

Three Month Sunset really hit the Slowdive thing on the head, but the songs sound great! I need to hear the full versions now...
Also, Slowdive - Lowtide?

mentioned it on the indie thread but the new Ringo Deathstarr single 'so high' is ripped straight from Ecstasy & Wine, except perkier. and is all the better for it.

so yeah there's a ringo deathstarr album now and it's quite something

I find MBV puns to be unavoidable, and I have ended many friendships because of them.

electricsound why is it that whenever I search any of my favorite obscure 90s bands one of your posts always pops up?
― Evan, Wednesday, 16 February 2011 06:00 (thirteen years ago) link
Ringo Deathstar sounds like a chiptune band name.
I should check these guys oot, that said.

Holee shit yr not kidding about the Ecstcy and Wine rip. THis is adorb.

more ecstasy than wine imo

been listening to the new Cut Copy tonight & track #7: 'this is all we've got' is some premium 'gaze.
― Myers and the Obese Olympics triceratops climbing event (Pillbox), Wednesday, 16 February 2011 07:33 (thirteen years ago) link
Cut Copy are gazey now? ... I thought they were more a presets-ish band, I have never given them much of a listen tbh
― Trayce, Wednesday, 16 February 2011 07:34 (thirteen years ago) link
since the beginning, certain strains of CC have been pretty obviously shoegaze-influenced, but the track I mentioned sounds straight-up like an early Moose song. Most of the other tracks on the album are more blip-bleep, gloop-gorp than that.
― Myers and the Obese Olympics triceratops climbing event (Pillbox), Wednesday, 16 February 2011 07:39 (thirteen years ago) link
heh heh gloop-gorp.

just got into swirlies again and don't think i'm leaving for another couple wks. holy fuck what an organized band.
― The previous message has been brought to you by (kelpolaris), Tuesday, 22 February 2011 17:00 (thirteen years ago) link
That "So High" lick has been in my head for days now. no problem IMO with aping another band's sound as long as the songwriting is solid.
― skip, Thursday, 24 February 2011 15:32 (thirteen years ago) link
I can never figure out what my favorite Swirlies release is.
― Wacky Way Lounge (Evan), Thursday, 24 February 2011 16:11 (thirteen years ago) link
There are new vinyl copies of "What To Do About Them" on amazon and new vinyl copies of "They Spent Their Wild Youthful Days..." on ebay for really cheap.
― Wacky Way Lounge (Evan), Thursday, 24 February 2011 16:14 (thirteen years ago) link
Blonder Tongue is the expensive rare one.
Anyway, I still highly recommend that She, Sir EP I was talking about here. Really great stuff. Not as crazy about the full length.
― Wacky Way Lounge (Evan), Thursday, 24 February 2011 18:26 (thirteen years ago) link
i have been enjoying the she sir EP a lot.
my fave swirlies is the slumberland 45. i think i might have expressed that i consider it among the top ten 45s of the 90s.
― racing up the fuck charts (electricsound), Thursday, 24 February 2011 21:40 (thirteen years ago) link
Ah yes, but it all appears on "What To Do About Them," along with some other incredible songs.
― Wacky Way Lounge (Evan), Friday, 25 February 2011 16:01 (thirteen years ago) link
I've been getting into some shoegazey metal, like Les Discretshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1sa2HZqvT5c

Glad Sennen were at least mentioned. I don't think they sound like Teenage Fanclub.

Sometimes the "metalness" of the band's sound provide a hint of cheesiness, but I really like song. Thats awesome, chap.
― Wacky Way Lounge (Evan), Friday, 25 February 2011 16:13 (thirteen years ago) link
That Sennen song is pretty huge, too.
― Wacky Way Lounge (Evan), Friday, 25 February 2011 16:16 (thirteen years ago) link
Glad you like it, the whole Les Discrets album's pretty amazing.
― Inevitable stupid dubstep mix (chap), Friday, 25 February 2011 16:17 (thirteen years ago) link
It's one dude doing everything but the drumming, by the way.
― Inevitable stupid dubstep mix (chap), Friday, 25 February 2011 16:18 (thirteen years ago) link
Very cool, I'm going to check out the album.
― Wacky Way Lounge (Evan), Friday, 25 February 2011 16:21 (thirteen years ago) link
cosign on Les Discrets
not really feeling the Ringo Deathstarr tunes I've heard -- like, I get it guys, you like MBV a whole fucking lot and can sing like Jim Reid blah blah etc etc. -- do you have ANY original ideas?
has anyone mentioned the Belong album on Kranky? that one's great, bit of a dream pop + drone hybrid w/ bits of 'gaze buried under a MASSIVE cloud of reverb & echo... like hearing an ultrasound of a shoegaze baby in the womb
