What happened to this guy? Did he kill himself or something? Toward the end, he started sounding good, and then he just up and disappeared.
>>60733022
wasn't this by a /mu/tant?

this kinda sounds like as if youth lagoon would start smashing all his recording equipment during a bad trip

haven't followed these threads in a while - who are the contenders?
>>60733152
I'm just starting to get into shoegaze, do you have that chart by chance?
>>60737779
>who are the contenders?
pinkshinyultrablast and spectres are talked about the most.
astrobrite, cheatahs, swervedriver, tamaryn, deafheaven, tamaryn, westkust, a sunny day in glasgow, a place to bury strangers, no joy, etc, are a bit more controversial but a lot of people hold them in high regard
I wish Boris did more straight up shoegaze
I've heard Attention Please, and I liked it
>>60737994
>pinkshinyultrablast
oye this is gooood. But just a single?
i wish chelsea wolfe would do some doomy shoegaze. iron moon and dragged out are already halfway there:

Kinda new to Shoegaze via Deafheaven, is there anything that falls under the same umbrella or even just compliments them?
>>60741351
blackgaze
this is not the best list, but it's a start
>>60734233
Yeah. I want him to show up in this thread because I want to know if his intention in the song Sluts off of Summer Songs was to base it off of Nyan Cat.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=emyhtYgFppo
Seriously, listen to that and tell me that the guitar doesn't sound like Nyan Cat. Where are you, Woody Grant? I really like your album, but I'm dying to know if you meant to do that or not.
>>60732898
Fuck. Did not know this. Thanks! Loved their s/t.
>>60734171
Nobody knows, he deleted all of his material from Bandcamp and social media without explanation.
His earlier stuff is great too, Morning/Hands is cool ambient noise and Innocence is amazing techno-noise that has this apocalyptic shoegaze-power electronics track on it

Thanks to the /shugazi/ bros who recc'd me Kinoko Teikoku last thread. I can't stop listening to them, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vA1Ph6SpTkI finna make me cry. Need more sad-gazi.
![ojUpsHrB[1].jpg](https://i.imgur.com/BS0NkRj.jpg "ojUpsHrB[1].jpg")
yo would guys mind combing threads with dream pop december for this month? I can put shugazi in the name and/or change the name from nothing but dream pop december to just 'dream pop december'
it doesn't make much sense to have two dream pop threads each day for a whole month and this has been a two-year tradition
>>60741059
>>60741059
>>60741059
>>60742489
H Y P E D
>>60742870
agreed
>>60743489
idk cause shugazi kind of also includes shoegaze and slowcore and blackgaze and certain psych or space rock bands, not just dream pop
>>60743697
we do that to though, dream pop and shoegaze blend to close together and from there it's reasonable to incorporate all the other relate stuff like slowcore, blackgaze, space rock, some psych, ethereal wave, etc...
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e6shmJaOD3Q
Is this Shoegaze?
>>60731890
Been meaning to get back into guitar after stopping after 3 years of playing, I want to get into playing shoegaze, I have a stratocaster, I made the tremolo flush with the bridge to get a nore controlled sound when using it, can I get that showgazi sound witg it or do I need a jaguar ripoff guitar?
Guitar tuning recommendations for shoegaze?
>>60743760
In that case, I'm cool with it, I think it'll be good to bring in people to the general too.
>>60743948
cool, yeah i'd rather have a lot of people in one general then trying to split them
so is it cool if someone just makes a nothing but dream pop december thread tomorrow instead of a shugazi one if i haven't already done so?
>>60744020
Yeah, and whoever does it can just make it NBDPD/shugazi general or whatever
>>60744046
that sounds good, can anyone add some sort of filter over the normal image to add some sort of distinguishing mark from normal shugazi? I kinda have the fear that it'll just turn into shugazi otherwise
i'd do it myself but i don't have photoshop or gimp on this computer
What's your favorite shoegaze band?
>>60742870
agreed. Souvlaki > Loveless
https://growhouse.bandcamp.com/album/never-say
I've been away for a month.
Have I missed any exciting news or releases?
>>60747238
There was that new A Sunny Day in Glasgow ep that no one really talked about too much.
Best shoegaze album ever made coming through.
Always late to these shindigs. Is there a chart for modern shoegaze? I know about groups like Astrobrite, Tokyo Shoegazer, that weird band with the blue demon drinking on their album etc. any records for great modern shoegaze and or a chart
>>60747315
If you love this, look up Shallow Rewards Shoegaze part 3. It's a shoegaze series Chris ott of pitchfork did on the genre and not only is it amazing in the vid I recommended he talks about and to the lead singer of the swirlies
anybody have any up-to-date charts? I've been looking for an album I saw in one of these threads, can't remember the name or the band. I think "helen" was in there somewhere
>>60747371
Yeah I saw it pretty recently actually, it's the thing that actually made me revisit swirlies.
>>60747929
There's a band called Helen with grouper in it and they're alright. Just Alright.
>>60747288
Good? I'll grab it anyway, but I care about /shugazi/'s opinion.
>>60744605
deftones
>>60748316
it's good
>>60747315
lol i like that album but there are better desu senpai
>>60747315
Listening for the first time. It good!
>>60748316
I haven't actually heard it yet.
shoegaze always man

u in a loo
I'm interested in getting pic related, Purple Pilgrims' s/t because discogs has it listed under shoegaze, psych rock, and experimental. Has anyone else heard this and can testify to its shoegaze-ness? I'll probably still get it, but discogs doesn't always have the most accurate tags, so I'd like to know.
>>60758057
idk but
>"Super-fuzzy psychedelic outsider dream pop from the ex-Christchurch now Hong Kong based sister duo of Clementine and Valentine Nixon.
>I first experienced Purple Pilgrims live in a small Lyttelton club, sweet keening ethereal folk songs that made me want to cry run through a line of op-shop guitar effects and into a single tiny guitar amp that put up a brave warbling fight and never gave up its ghost. I was struck by their complete lack of artiface and served a welcome reminder that the simplest and most heartfelt of musics can move one to the depth of ones soul. It was a goose bump performance.
>The same wide eyed simple magic is at work on these recordings, songs of light swirl tantilisingly from beneath an echoing vale of hiss and feedback and rumble as the small amp again retains its ghost.
>Purple Pilgrims also work in the visual arts producing zines that are to drawing and collage what their tape recorder day dreams are to sound.
>The final recordings for this release were masterered by Brian Crook of The Renderers. Purple Pilgrims have produced a video to celebrate their debut release."
>>60758149
>Same old Slowdive and Swirlies shit getting sucked off in every shugazi thread
>Good new shit like >>60746338 gets ignored.
>People insist that this genre never progresses
Never change /mu/
>>60758503
Are you the grow house man? I like your music
>>60758536

Who agrees with me that Drop You Vivid Colours is a Japanese expansion of You Made Me Realise?
>>60735752
This is a sick one. Never seen that artwork tho
how come nobody talks about creepoid anymore.. is it because pitchfork panned them?
>>60762697
I think its fine. They would probably get talked about more if they didn't get a 5 from pitchfork. They are really great live. Saw them open for Swirlies and Marriages. They played again near my area in a really small venue where they weren't opening but I unfortunately didn't go.
anyone have a dl link fot xinlisupreme's tomorrow never comes
can anyone recommend some good free bandcamp SG? i've already heard Kairon Irse

Thanks bro=)
>>60738023
if you haven't check out their double ep/album thing with Asobi Seksu. they covered eachothers songs
why is it called shugazi anyway?
Is there a band that sounds like Whirr but has more than 2 good songs per album?
>>60769005
Whirr but only the EPs.
>>60769005
Iris
>>60767566
A guy on here said "Is it pronounced shugazi, like the band Fugazi?" or something similar, and it stuck.
I've actually thought about pronouncing it this way once, which I thought was funny once this became a thing. There is also some band page on FB and myspace from like 4-5 years ago called Shugazi, and claim to make music that is like shogaze fugazi, but it's a joke and they have not tracks, sadly.
What's stopping me from stealing someone's riff and then putting it in a constant loop and I just reverb the fuck out of it and feed it plugins until it sounds like popcorn in the microwave and then I just record myself screaming and layer it 3 minutes in and finish "my song" and then I photoshop a picture of wooden baby blocks next to a pyramid and slap a name on it like "nutseed library" and then I keep doing this until you faggots find my shit and start eating it up
>>60769549
nutseed library is soty 2015 t︂b︂︂h f︂︂a︂m
>>60737994
is it just me or does new bermuda not sound very shoegaze-y at all?
>>60737967
No computer access for a while, but I think it's on the wiki. iirc it's the one that has the big three and branches out from there.
>>60737967
1/2
>>60737967
>>60770186
2/2. I used both of these to explore the genre and it's subgenres/related genres. Both helped a lot and even just listening to albums posted on shugazi helped me get into it even more. I hope you enjoy the experience as much as I have.
>>60769768
It doesn't. They were trying to move away from that sound.
>>60770186
>>60770218
What is /shugazi/s opinion of Blonde Redhead? I'm not very deep into shoegaze but i thought they were fairly popular/influential but I never see them in these charts which makes me think otherwise
thanks
I posted this in the Sharethread but I figured I'd share here too, since it wasn't on the archive.

I need your help /shugazi/. Ive fallen in love with this album with its post rock build ups into what i guess would be described as a shoegaze-esque climaxes. Rec me something similar. Something like the song serpent mound.
>>60777063
This Will Destroy You
>>60758503
>>60746338
too bad it's only one track. that's probably why it doesn't get too much attention
>>60770524
i like 23. didn't like their last album. they're a bit more on the dream/noisepop side of the spectrum so they're not discussed too often
>>60766785
thanks, I bought it on bandcamp
>>60770524
I'm a fan. They have a pretty wide range of styles throughout their discography, though, and a lot of it isn't really /shugazi/. I've tried to talk about them here before, but no takers.
Not being in charts shouldn't bother you, /shugazi/ is a pretty small group. The "essentials" charts that are floating around represent something like 4 guys' tastes and a couple of hours of focus grouping in a nearly dead thread. Basically I'm saying /shugazi/ a shit and you shouldn't trust anyone's opinion here.
>>60771518
shojoskip is so great. Their first album (and i think only) is one of my favorites.
Why does Vaadat Charigim never seem to get mentioned in here?
Their latest was a bit disappointing and not very shugazi but The World Is Well Lost is one of my favourite shoegaze records of the past few years.

>>60771518
thanks so much
>>60778505
jewgaze
i like it, but i beginning to get tird of that sort of that semi-detatched, not-too-intense-but-not-emotionless, indie rock sound. I still think these guys do it well. I think the way the distorted guitars blend in with the acoustic guitar is way better than i've heard it sound with bands like drop nineteens
>>60779367
Yeah I'm not the biggest fan of that kind of style as well but as you said they do it really well.
I've never actually listened to drop nineteens they worth a listen if I liked this?
>>60779515
Drop Nineteens are not really that similar to these guys but I'd say they're always worth a listen if you're into that first wave of shoegaze. They had some more energy than a lot of the shoegaze stuff coming out around then, so they're pretty interesting
>>60779541
alright cool, I'll give them a try.
>>60779748
Meh, I used to listen to Drop Nineteens and got over them very soon, they're nothing special.
what's a good, reasonably priced, shoegaze setup?
might splurge a little for christmas

Hi can people listen to my song I made
Electro Group is my shit. Anybody a link to their first album? It's supposedly a psychedelic shoegaze masterpiece.
