why do i still make these
>>61142237
To viral yr album
Is this thing still relevant
>>61142237
I like the cover more than the music desu
Made it my profile pic lol
>>61142290
it never really was.
these threads always took like 3 days to reach the bump limit whenever it did
>>61142237
Cause I need a link for that new ringo deathstarr
>>61142359
Ringo Deathstarr is trash.
>>61142492
Nah. LSD&TSFG are still the best MBV copycat band tho.
Don't listen to a lot in this genre, but besides MBV, All Natural Lemon and Lime Flavors was my favorite. Very inventive arrangements and textures. Very woozy.

I can't find Curve's Doppelganger in 320 on slsk. Help
Still AOTY
>>61142492
they went to shit with mauve
>>61142237
For the greater good.
>>61142831
I didn't keep up with whatever actually came out this year, was it all that bad?
>>61143081
Smiling Disease was cool
>>61143081
Westkust was cool
New Thrushes is good
>>61143081
Tamaryn wasn't cool
>>61142492
>>61143028
This track is great though.

>>61142237
stop with this album already
>>61144841
You first
>>61142760
I haven't listened to this in a very long time.
From what I remember, I've never heard anything with textures quite as lush as this, but sometimes all the sounds going on at once felt excessive. I still need to give it a few more listens.

Did you listen to the Sonic Jesus or APTBS albums that came out this year?
>>61145405
Anyone who hadn't heard this should pick it up.
>>61146693
why tho? I've not listened to it but it gets posted here a lot, why is this live show any better then the rest?
>>61144841
>>61142237
I agree, OP viral marketing does not work, it just annoys others and actually causes people to not want to listen to your music. I know that some have achieved success in the past, but it's not going to work for you. Sorry.
>>61147430
Personally, I can't into the production on Just for a Day, and shit makes all the songs sound more intense.
Which shlohmo tracks are shoegaze inspired?
>>61144137
Yes it was.
Has anyone heard Josh T. Pearson of Lift To Experience's acoustic gaze stuff?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KomSoPIfcxo
>>61147986
So is he homeless now?
Apollo Heights > The Veldt
>>61148503
He actually just released a successful country folk album.
>>61147986
I haven't heard anything he's made outside of Lift to Experience, but that link you posted is some of the most intense, textured shoegaze I've ever heard. Almost as if Swans shortened their songs and started listening to more MBV.
>>61148678
Is it any good? I'd be interested in listening to it.
>>61147986
Does he have a broken string in that video?

Do you guys know of any dark and aggressive shoegaze to match the anger in my soul?
>>61149917

Do any of you guys have a shoegaze qt folder? How do I start making one? Asking for a friend.

please dont let these threads die bros. its literally the only thing i have to look forward to in life. this might very well be the last bastion of shoegaze in contemporary music culture. I feel like if /shugazi/ dies out on /mu/ then shoegaze will vanish completely
>>61152180
Something tells me that a small general thread on 4chan's music board isn't the only thing keeping the entire genre of shoegaze alive.
>>61152180
I won't. But I probably will though, I never know what to talk about.
>>61152180
I hope you aren't serious, but in case you are I would advise you put on a comfortable pair of shoes and go outside for a while. Leave your phone. You need to reconnect with reality.
>>61152862
Just listen to an album and post a thought about that album. Shouldn't be that hard to have an opinion.
>>61153122
It was a shoegaze album and I liked it. Ok, your turn.
>>61145437
All the abrasive sounds in that Sonic Jesus album don't sound powerful, they're more grating and annoying. The gloomy psych parts are cool though.
>>61153292
Why do you care at all about a music discussion forum when you can't even try to make a coherent thought about a quality in a song? It's not like you have to say some deeply insightful or meaningful thing, but at least say something that someone could respond to.
>>61148827
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QpRPp8q0Tqs
best song that didn't make it on the album
so...are there any good non-Oslo Slowdive bootlegs around? I know there's lots of decent quality bootlegs but which one is the best?
>>61142237
I actually really like the sort of psychedelic guitar noodling on that PP single.
Can we talk about Lift to Experience?

>>61142272
seriously, this cover is all over the catalog 24/7
I'll never listen to it or take it seriously now.
This album went somewhat under the radar this year, I'm just listening to it again, it's super fuzzy, melodic, and damn good.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4P9GfjeAWW0
This might be a big ask, but hopefully there's others interested too...
...does anyone have any, if not all, of the 5 volumes of Creation Soup?
...and also feel inclined to upload whatever they have?
>>61166416
b-but Pinkshinyultrablast!
>>61167927
I could probably upload them within the next hour or so.
>>61166416
This genre really should have died with the 90s to be honest
>>61167141
Same. It was in my backlog for a while, but I deleted it out of sheer annoyance. I've refrained from clicking a few /shugazi/s just because it was the OP. I don't think it's a coincidence that they've been dying so young lately.
hey guys I'm trying to get into Dream pop right now
Are there any artists other than these worth checking out? Conversely, are any of the ones listed NOT worth listening to?
Yo la tengo
Fishmans
Beach house
Slowdive
My bloody valentine
Spiritualized
Cocteau Twins
Galaxie 500
Mazzy Star
This Mortal Coil
M83
Ride
>>61142760
Agreed this was pretty awesome. Super psychedelic and warped. And some of the tracks were straight fire
>>61168607
AR Kane are essential. They coined the phrase, Dream Pop.
>>61168607
Add >>61168724 to the list for sure.
Here are a few of my favorites that aren't listed:
Candy Claws - Ceres & Calypso in the Deep Time
Grooms - Infinity Caller
Drape - Canicular Days
Dip In The Pool - Silence

I and the archive would be so grateful. Bless you.
>>61168607
Classics to know and love:
Bel Canto
The Sundays
Cranes
Dead Can Dance
The Radio Dept
The Moon Seven Times
Some more recent ones I've enjoyed a lot:
Sea Oleena
Puro Instinct
Tribes of the City
Mondialito
Fleur
School of Seven Bells
Courtney Tidwell
I could keep going, but between these and the others posted you should have plenty to get you started.
FWIW, I don't think Ride really counts as dream pop. But dream pop is a pretty hazily defined category, so I can accept that others might differ with me on that.
>>61168607

>>61170068
What did you think of it?
>>61167177
Dude I feel the same way. I tried to get it noticed for a bit. I think It's one of the better shoegaze albums put out this year and it came out of nowhere on a barren bandcamp page
>>61167927
>>61168844
Thanks! Glad I could help.

Exactly, if you like Nothing, or Starflyer 59, you should love Petal Head. They did some nice guitar solos and psychedelic bits as well in some of the songs. Just may be my shoegaze AOTY.
Did anyone here listen to this? I'm about to give it a listen.
>>61171566
no but from the previews it seems like it's going to be fucking delicious
>>61170901
Really appreciate it
>>61163871
Just starting to give this a listen.
>>61163871
>>61173127
I feel weird for liking the sample on 2Wicky and also recognizing it from Biggie's "Warning" but never being interested enough to listen to Isaac Hayes.
did pinkwhatsoever released next album?
>>61173524
Did you hear their 10" from September? otherwise no not that I know of.
>>61173646
Those singles got me hype. I love the mix of the heaviness of the EP and the dreaminess of the album.
>>61163871
The drums on the last track are so nimble it's fucking sick. Best song on the album for sure. Also if anyone cares, there is one actual shoegaze track on here, it's Nr. 9.

sorry guise I'm late but whats your opinion on the new xinlisupreme? I quite like it
>>61174231
could be my favorite one so far but it's hard to tell because my ears stopped working right after the first 2 tracks
Not sure if this is shoegaze or not but sounds like it to me. This is Jaime's other band from Title Fight. Pretty good. http://hazepa.bandcamp.com/album/rough-mix
>>61174231
Woah I actually forgot that existed. I need to listen to this
Any bands that mix metal with shoegaze besided deafheaven?
>>61175990
bosse de nage? or whatever they're called.
not overwhelmingly similar but as for stuff released this year I think they're coming from the same general area.
>>61175990
Nadja mixes it with drone metal.
There's a whole subgenre called blackgaze, I believe there's a chart somewhere.
>>61175997
Sweet I'll try looking into a link for that unless you have one you can shoot me
>>61176001
I'm familiar with blackgaze but the vocals are pretty different from that genre. Sounds a little more punk imo with the guitar sound a riffs but that's just me. Hope you enjoyed it though

>>61174099
I mean it is a dead genre. All the sounds that can be found in "shoegaze" have been found because it's a genre label that's limiting and referring to a specific scene and small number of bands from 25 years ago. If something actually did innovate it wouldn't be shoegaze anymore. Same with post-punk and neo-pyschodelia, they're just imitating older sounds that fit within that genre.
There's some okay bands still and it can be enjoyable, but it will never reach above what it currently is or up to what it once was, and it will never expand.
>>61178522
Pretty much. A lot of the stuff posted in this general is kind of a stretch.
>>61178522
Most of this is true. Most of the time, people take that influence and put it somewhere else. Like Sigur Ros, Tim Hecker and M83 are all influenced by Shoegaze. I wouldn't necessarily say the genre is dead though. There are still cool post-punk and neo-psychodelia bands. Genres come and go all the time, Shoegaze will have a resurgence one day.

GODDAMN THAT STEREOLAB COVER FUUUCK
Funny article
http://dangerousminds.net/comments/angry_ebay_seller_calls_out_kevin_shields_of_my_bloody_valentine_for_being
>>61178522
You might as well say Rock n Roll is a dead genre since nobody is making new songs in the original style, it's all "desert rock, "post-punk," "shoegaze," "math rock" or whatever more recent twist the band is using. It completely misses the point of how inspiration and musical lineage works though, if someone takes a nod to shoegaze in a newer style and is embraced by fans of old shoegaze then it seems inane to try to argue that is a completely new thing with no ties to what came before. Change happens and has literally always happened at every single stage in the history of music. Genres aren't meant to be strict style guidelines, they group for convenience. It's still convenient to group things under shoegaze so the genre clearly isn't "dead" in any meaningful sense.
>>61150221
i have one i fap to it sometimes while i listen to their music and cry

>guys
I think it's one person.
>>61190617
I always thought it was three dudes
>>61191355
It is.
is this shoegaze?
>>61167177
This is almost great. A lot of the riffs bleed together in a rather unmemorable way but the one real issue is how short it is. Why do bands do this? Nine songs in barely half an hour isn't an album, would it really have been that difficult to write like two more four minute songs before calling it a day?
I didn't look very hard but I can't seem to find anything else by them, I'd be willing to give the band another shot though since they do have a very solid texture. Just a shame this one couldn't do it for me.

>>61194022
Yes, it is. Lush is working on new material ahead of their tour.
>>61148827
Im loving this. Any more dream pop/triphop that sounds as sexy as this? Most trip-hop sounds horribly dated to me but this is great
Is Purple Pilgrims listenable or is it like a Viper type of thing?
Greatest Ambient Shoegaze album ever
>>61196072
Honestly dude It's barely listenable, and this is coming from someone who loves noise. It's just recorded like total shit.
Having said that, if you turn it up loud enough and grit your teeth then it will actually sound pretty damn cool at certain points when the vocals are going and you can detect some sort of guitar rhythm.
TLDR; Most wouldn't find it listenable but it's not a total meme like viper
>>61196072
It's just ambient with some psych-ish guitar noodling. idk what >>61196581 is on about?

It's the same guy trying to viral the album until people like it

I find so much stuff on this youtube channel that I like.
>>61205797
this is actually very cool
>>61142237
is this single a meme?
>>61145437
Yeah but sonic Jesus I wouldn't consider shoegaze, it is on my AOTY list though
>>61167177
Almost done with this album. Why isn't this being talked about more in the shugazi general? I haven't seen it posted here before this. It's pretty solid. This should be posted more here instead of that shit that OP keeps viarling.
>>61210370
YES! This album is great! If I remember correctly it also includes a great "christmas-y" version of Pangea Girls (Magic Feeling) from Ceres and Calypso.

Can we talk about how surprisingly good this and the Gold album are for a Christian band?
>>61163871
crazy to see this album pop up here now all of the sudden, i remember listening to this a lot along with portishead in my triphop phase almost 20 years ago. smoked up for the first time to this album
>>61224869
it always feels super unfair to call sf59 a Christian band. They're great, and that's like the worst thing one can pigeonhole a band as.
>>61226088
I feel ya there. I associate them with CR, because that was all my friend was allowed to listen to. She let me listen to this album and I was blown away. I guess Chevelle had the same association effect for some reason too.
>>61224869
I lost my virginity to Gold.
>>61142237
I was big into Chiptune and Shoegaze at one point. I discovered The Depreciation Guild through 8bitpeoples, Chipgaze if you will. The band folded into The Pains of Being Pure At Heart which I would also recommend
