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.

Ah yes, but it all appears on "What To Do About Them," along with some other incredible songs.

I've been getting into some shoegazey metal, like Les Discrets

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.

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.

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

hmm i'm not sure you 'get' shoegaze? like that's the genre in a nutshell iirc

nah i "get" it, would just prefer any sort of subtle twist on the formula, anything!

Damn this thread seems so....different without ilxor (ilxor), Wednesday, 9 March 2011 22:10 (thirteen years ago) link

otherwise may as well just listen to MBV, yknow?

nah, i heard that one already

australian rules football quarterback (electricsound), Wednesday, 9 March 2011 22:12 (thirteen years ago) link

Still sad there's only one Rumskib album, but what an album it is!

Glifted is easily one of the most innovative nu-shoegaze bands I can think of. A lot more loop heavy and trancey shoegaze.

Ringo Deathstarr are now on tour: They're playing the Hexagon in Minneapolis Saturday, which is beyond cool.

trailblazer tape on night-people (also on bandcamp download) has elements of that belong album too. not as interesting, but i dig it

royal ballache (electricsound), Wednesday, 21 September 2011 06:16 (thirteen years ago) link

Thanks for the Belong tip, but do these guys have the stupidest website ever?

What do you mean? There's nothing there but a picture...

been greatly enjoying the Golden Awesome and Anne records lately

CT is reissuing some Blueshift Signal records too, never heard of them til the reish was announced but it's v nice Clairecordsy stuff

Noted re all these names. And your current handle here.

used to be much more black metal, now almost exclusively shoegazey.

omar little, Thursday, 23 February 2012 08:39 (twelve years ago) link

Italy's Be Forest is an interesting proposition. They won't persuade non-gazers, but they're a lot better than the also-rans of the 2nd and 3rd generation.

From Be Forest's 2011 album Cold:
Florence
Dust

From their current "Hanged Man" single:
Hanged Man
I.O.

Some videos:
Florence
Hanged Man

The bandcamp link for the album Cold didn't linkify in last post.

Anybody know the deal with this band "Now, Now" that's featured on Spotify today? Girl vocal shoegazey 90's vibe, don't quite get why Spotify would pick it out, though it's good. Not many views of their videos...

dlp9001, Tuesday, 13 March 2012 18:08 (twelve years ago) link

New Frankie Rose album, Interstellar, is pretty much shoegaze.

Viva Brother Beyond (ithappens), Tuesday, 13 March 2012 18:13 (twelve years ago) link

Am listening to the new Whirr album here. It's nice enough if not wildly compelling.

Feebs K-Tel (NickB), Tuesday, 13 March 2012 18:23 (twelve years ago) link

Got really stuck into School of Seven Bells 'Ghostory' recently.

Chewshabadoo, Tuesday, 13 March 2012 19:56 (twelve years ago) link

Whenever I see any band featured on Spodify, I figure someone's record company has paid to put it there. I wouldn't read too much into it.

Masonic Boom, Tuesday, 13 March 2012 20:32 (twelve years ago) link

Hmmm, a little research reveals that Now, Now is in many ways Tegan & Sara gone shoegaze, which is a great thing to me, but probably a scary thought for most of ILM.

dlp9001, Thursday, 15 March 2012 00:58 (twelve years ago) link

not having heard T&S that doesn't mean much to me but i thought the now, now thing sounded nice enough to get off emusic

some crap (electricsound), Thursday, 15 March 2012 00:59 (twelve years ago) link

Whirr's debut LP, Pipe Dreams, out March 13, 2012 on Tee Pee.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IA-ZIEliNC8&feature=BFa&list=AVAYMcY2vx8GTh4wg_JC5JhFa1Waf6u30W&lf

this is pretty damn good, imo.

good luck Peeta Mellark (Bee OK), Thursday, 15 March 2012 02:55 (twelve years ago) link

I think I've posted about Ghost Society before (maybe in this thread?). Anyway, I just came across this live-in-studio performance from 2012 which is kind of jawdropping. The precision with which Sara Savery does the Liz Fraser-ish vocal bit in the post-chorus is great.

Johnny Fever, Sunday, 25 March 2012 06:59 (twelve years ago) link

ha. are they american? american shoegaze bands take themselves so seriously. i'd bet they were from new york.
