Going through some of Coaltar of the Deeper's work. Listening to pic related right now, I just wish the band did less screaming, it can get kind of cringy at times.
I FUCKING LOVE LOVELESS
SO FUCKING MUCH

Wish We Were is better.
i'm just getting into these genres starting from loveless. i've been listening to a lot of black tambourine lately and loving it, anything similar someone can rec?
>>60787551
Try Lilys, anon. In The Presence of Nothing feels like a sort of successor to Loveless for me.

Also he was literally trying to remake Loveless' sound
whats good dream-pop
I love wild nothing but cant find anything quite like it that i like
>I havent searched very hard either
I've been wondering lately what exactly it is about shoegaze that we like so much? I don't know about you guys, but I crave this kind of music, hearing a song without some sort of droning texture in the background doesn't do it for me anymore

I really like Black Tambourine, friend. If you want more noisy/poppy stuff like them you have a couple choices:
1) Check this image and look at the noise pop section for some similar albums. I would also recommend the albums Psychocandy (and maybe Honey's Dead) by Jesus and Mary Chain.
2) Find other bands/genres. A couple of modern bands that were influenced by black tambourine are The Pains of Being Pure at Heart (poppy, noisy, shugazi influence) and the Vivian Girls (self titled album was best) which were more of a garage rock act but used a ton of reverb and shit. Dum Dum Girls by extension but they don't really deliver on the noise. There's also a Costa Rican band called Las Robertas who sort of mimed the vivian girls sound but made it a little dreamier/ more laid back. Finally you could check some garage punk like Oblivians and The Reatards who have a nice, crunchy guitar tone and some catchy songs but certainly don't make pop.

Someone recommended me Beach House, but honestly, nothing really clicked until I heard Bluebird and She's So Lovely.
Been also listening to Radio Dept., Seoul and Day Wave recently.

I'm not sure man, but I know exactly what you mean about needing some kind of textured noise behind everything.
I remember back when I did that MBTI thing and found I was an INTP and did some reading about it cause it seemed fun at the time. A couple of blurbs about the kind of music INTPs listen to kind of stuck out in relation to shoegaze:
"INTPs are often keen on melancholic minor-key music in which an introspective and/or esoteric mood is conveyed."
"When their analytical thinking dominates the choice of music to listen to, the need for intellectual stimulation derived from complex structures and sounds will override concerns for cultured harmony. Hence, INTPs are often drawn to dissonance. Indeed, they may even thoroughly strive for dissonant sound worlds. When in such moods, consonant harmonies, especially of the three-chord-melody variety, are dismissed as boring and uninspired. If an INTP is forced to listen to simple harmonic music for a while, he usually can't wait to feel the relief provided by a few minutes of pure dissonance. Their ideal music might typically be something with a complex, but analyzable structure, with a rich and varied sound world, predominantly dissonant but with sections of melodic motifs to provide solidity."
So there you go. I don't think this preference is limited to "INTPs" I think there's just a certain kind of person that finds comfort in dissonance and confusion. Hence we enjoy that distorted/fuzzed out texture, along with maybe some tremolo to keep the melodies subtle and hard to grasp.

r u ready
Anything similar to Grandeur of Hair? Blown away.
>>60794376
I haven't heard anything QUITE like it. You could check out their other material, particularly their earlier album, 'Between The Dead'.
Otherwise you could do what some anon said in another thread and just take an Astrobrite album like Whitenoisesuperstar or maybe their latest Deluxer and slow it down to maybe half speed :^)

You might like this. >>60795621
It's almost like if The Goslings wanted to replace the distortion with similarly excessive amounts of reverb on a lo fi recording.

Not bad. Thanks for the rec
