fuck music

Listening to Starflyer 59's Americana right now, really liking the harder drums. They're louder and more powerful than they were on Silver and Gold, anyway.
>>61134403
I almost feel like SF59's shoegaze stuff isn't even really shoegaze though. They have the softly sung vocals under the heavy and distorted (not heavily distorted, don't get that shit twisted) guitars, but their songs generally don't have that reverberating sound that's so characteristic to shoegaze.
>>61134433
the softly sung vocals under the heavy and distorted guitars are enough to make that shoegaze for sure.
>>61134403
Yeah they're great, but what really puts them above and beyond other gaze bands are the clean guitar leads that sometimes decorate their songs. It always sounds so beautifully fragile. Very very heavy music, sonically and emotionally.

>All those tags labeling SF59's albums as 'Christian' on Allmusic
fucking disgraceful
I've been wanting to make shoegaze for a long time, so lately I'm trying to limit how much shoegaze I listen to so that I don't end up sounding like a ripoff of an existing shoegaze artist.
How do you guys think that'll affect it? I really don't want to end up accidentally plagiarizing a band I like or anything.

It only will if you suck
>>61134513
I probably do but whatever just gotta do it
>>61134521
everyone sucks at first but if you continue sucking you're only going to sound like what you try to emulate
>>61134529
All I need to do is try really hard not to suck
>>61134541
No
You need to try really hard to get better every time you seemingly fail
>>61134547
Sounds like a plan.
I might as well keep posting results here whenever I have something. Probably would be good to share original stuff with /shugazi/ too.

Best use of a Hammond organ on any shoegaze album.
shoegaze is great
>>61134599
Why would you think that?
>>61134648
Shoegaze is like you can tell it's this crazy sonic whirlwind, but it's also equally gentle
Is there a band now that is as cool as the JAMC was in the 80s?
>>61135377
Nothing will EVER be as cool as the JAMC was in the 80s.
>>61137541
dead thread, dead genre
That neckbeard MOON sure ripped off that fucking artwork on his EP.
This is Ringo Deathstarr song is great.
