Any good shoegaze/dreampop groups? I really like the Loveless album by MBV and would like more music in that vein or anything in these styles really.

go to /mu/ for that
Funny place to ask for that, but check out Cocteau Twins, Slowdive and Ride.
>>27589564
slowdive, whirr, grouper, asobi seksu, pinkshinyultrablast, ringo deathstarr, charli xcx, grimes, chvrches, cranes, diiv, gauntlet hair, grizzly bear, guitar, grouplove, jai paul, lush, lsd and the search for god, ride, the love language, m83, mikgazer, health (specifically the album disco2), nights, no joy, postiljonen, psychic teens, brian jonestown massacre, saint pepsi, tamaryn, team sleep, veils, where i wake warm
this isn't consistent and some are loads better than others. just off the top of my head

oh yeah and you should understand that loveless is more or less a one off. nothing in the genre is truly comparable so the sooner youre aware of that the sooner you can enjoy other shit
I really love Nocturne by Wild Nothing

Which Cocteau Twins album should I start with? Or are they good for the most part and I should just go in chronological order?

most shoegaze is shit. none of it compares to loveless, not even close. most of the other shoegaze groups are just shitty brit rock groups
>>27590085
Loveless is overrated as shit anyway. Kevin shields was constantly super high while recording and even admitted he was surprised at how well it was received.
>>27590165
yea sure it's overrated, doesn't change how I feel the rest of the genre, 95% of the late 80s and early 90s shoegaze is just shit brit alt rock. the only good shoegaze I've listened to is stuff released recently like deerhunter/atlas sound.
>>27590341
Fuck off. Cocteau Twins has a better catalog than MBV. The thing about Loveless especially, is that Shields has a thing with his whammy while playing chords. That's basically responsible for why you can distinguish. But again, Loveless is too drugged imo. Isn't anything and tracks like Honey Power are where they shine imo.
>>27590488
yes, I play guitar, I know what Kevin shields does
the cocteau twins are the main group I just fucking hate. it's more like 80s dream pop than shoegaze. I like beaches though so it's not like I hate dream pop.

>>27590165
It's overrated but still the best in its genre
>acting like Kevin Shields is a talentless hack
