love linda guilala
>>
anyone else think a lot of contemporary shoegaze bands are becoming too generic? It really needs to undergo more experimentation or something
>>
>>66034737
I always thought that was the general consensus. I just really want another band to replace the void Sweet Trip left.
>>
when will shoegaze bands finally learn how to incorporate shoes into their music?
>>
>>66034824
I thought the whole point was because they use their feet on the pedals
>>
>>66034737
No, a lot of generic sounding bands are a necessity to keep the genre alive. It creates a uniform sound and scene in local environments that helps promote the idea of the style and lets listeners know what to expect.

Experimentation is always welcome, but underlying fundamentals are a necessity to keep the genre alive. If you don't think there is enough experimentation, then do it yourself.
>>
>>66034928
Well there's always going to be some kind of uniformity in the sound, even if more bands started trying to expand the music.
>>
>>66034737
That's why Lift To Experience came back. To save the genre.

Are shoegazers footfags?
>>

the genre itself is a fucking dead end, what do you expect? not saying its bad but it was doomed from the very start
>>
This year hasn't been amazing for shoegaze so /shugazi/'s been pretty dead recently
>>

Hope to get a spooky shugazi month this year too

does anyone have share of Texas Jerusalem Crossroads?
>>
>>66034737
the problem is, the genre is too often associated with the generic BS that was popular in the 90's (like Lush, sorry if you like them) so it basically defaults to that sound these days. it definitely needs some experimentation. shoegazing techniques applied to genres outside of alternative pop would be nice, their is just so much potential that is wasted. I think in the future we'll see some progress though.

Anyone have recommendations similar to pic related?

Moon Song is great- Honey Power is better

Shove a fat M80 up your ass and light it. In honor of the 4th.

>>66034737
There do need to be some new bands in the scene that don't fit into the heavy vibes of Whirr or the emo vibes of Pity Sex- I want a band that has like DnB breaks behind them, or at least some sort of heavy drum tracks, like Sweet Trip but either more industrial or more DnB.

this. more people should try their hand at making the music they're into, I think if that happened we would have genres growing faster and in more directions.

I am certainly trying to figure out ways the shoegaze genre could go, and how I could do it

Flying Saucer Attack, Loveliescrushing, Astrobrite for the overblown guitars.
Overall sound reminds me of Beach House. Specifically Devotion and Thank Your Lucky Stars.

Luminousorange - Drop You Vivid Colors
My Dead Girlfriend & Shojoskip - Sweet Days and Her Last Kiss
Asobi Seksu - Citrus

All of them are jap bands.

Does all the little stripped down electronic tracks on here bother anyone else? They're like little interludes of musical skits that take away from the actual songs to me.
