Is shoegaze inherently psychedelic or is this a mix of psychedelic rock and shoegaze?
>>
I'd like to think that shoegaze is psychedelic or stoner for obvious resason. such as sweet trips velocity design comfort. It's considered shoegaze but I think it's very psychedelic for its sound
>>
Shoegaze is a subgenre of neo-psychedelia.

I don't know if I'd consider Lush psychedelic.
Also they were part of the group of bands that established shoegaze, so they're definitely shoegaze.

Lush is shoegaze, so yeah, they're psychedelic.

Spooky definitely is.

Before I knew the term 'shoegaze' I thought of Loveless as a psychedelic rock album. So I'd say yes, shoe gaze is psychedelia
>>
Brian jonestown massacre are not shoegaze.

Lush is Shoegaze.

I know BJM as a whole has a pretty varied sound, but methadrone is definitely shoegaze.

OP's album is shoegaze. BJM on the whole, are more varied. Many would debate that Lush are dream pop

Both, sort of. Shoegaze is really sort of an outgrowth of dream pop and noise pop, so I definitely wouldn't call it a subgenre of psychedelia, but it's clearly influenced by psychedelia.

That said, The Brian Jonestown Massacre is more deliberately psychedelic in a 1960s way than any other shoegaze band. I'd actually call them garage rock before I'd call them shoegaze, so yeah, they have that 60s garage/psychedelic sound first, and shoegaze second.
>>
A band like Swervedriver, or Catherine Wheel are shoegaze without being psychedelic
>>
>>63297058
Yeah, Shoegaze is like 80% psychedelia and 20% alternative rock.
>>

>is A a mix of A and B?

Jesus, you are retarded.
