da charto
I love this album and its the only thing this Japanese band/duo has done under this name(went on to do other shit)Flipper being my favorite song despite the song itself not being as distorted or "shoegazy"
>>129041903Album name is Glitter, NOT Flipper. Fuckup on my end
Fennesz fucks, do they have other shoegaze tracks like this?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3UebSlGQjEQ

once again shilling best shoegaze 2025https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LDzLVfbscsMAlso the new Greet Death and new Glare projects are my other current favorites
>>129041841Not shoegaze.
Is there a reason this can't just the /alternative/ general?
>>129044578This guy literally just spams the same copy paste and same charts and then sometimes posts 2 new songs and then the thread dies at 15 replies and its been going on for years
If he gave a flying fuck about thread performance he would have deviated after the first few threads in a row but no instead its just one guy advertising a catalog of bullshit thats mid
i didn't hear a single good shoegaze album from the last year
I love shoegaze but would never admit publicly. Gen Z fucking ruined shoegaze. Julie is so fucking hot though.
>>129044618>>129044618Are you talking about /shugazi/? I don't think I've ever seen an /alternative/ general. At least not in many, many years.Looks like the copy pasta changed a while back and was cleaned up
>>129044683these were some of my favorite tracks from 2025 - check out the albums maybe>Todos Mis Amigos Están Tristeshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=az2ISN_4mEA&list=RDaz2ISN_4mEA&start_radio=1>kmoehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qaGhSZBdMf4>Water From Your Eyeshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PkBnwBDlty0>Mommahttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WG0mAzP165o
>>129044578would that general survive at all either? It isn't the 12 active Kpop threads or Wpop gooners, so not sure

>>129041838https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QxaHJB0o9ak&list=RDQxaHJB0o9ak&start_radio=1do people still listen to A Sunny Day in Glasgow? I feel like this was huge on /mu/ years back
>>129044578Well, what's your favorite Strokes song/album?
>>129044618sounds based desu. A persistent little bugger. I always pop into one of these before they die
>>129045707>asian dreamgazeyou like oeil? The strawberry reminded me of this one https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZEOX17Oueug
>>129041838this is good I recommend, it's similar to early Slowdive to me
>>129044578Alternative as a genre has become impossibly broad to the point it means nothing, what does nirvana and billie eilish have in common?
>>129044683This was good, also the 2nd sadness&abriction album was good
uhhh trapgaze?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SVe61F1WW8Q
>>129042050Loved this album. For The Guilty and Taker are my favs
BRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAP

Poogaze is fucking dead. I've seen bands called "Blush", "Blushed", and ofc "Blushing" on TikTok all aping off MBV. Every single new TT poogaze band sounds like something that was already done in the 90's, early 00's, and early 10's. Every fucking band wants to be Hum or MBV or Whirr/Nothing. Every glitchy band wants to be Sweet Trip or Parannoul. Its so fucking embarrassing atp.Julie and Glixen are prime examples of style over substance ahh music. And every other fucking new zoomergaze band is named after a song or album an earlier shoegaze band put out decades ago.>Gleemer>Glimmer>Shimmer>Gleeming>Distressor>GlixenGive me a fucking break. I waited over a decade to see Whirr live and when I finally did last tour the fucking zoomers in front of me were holding their phones above their heads recording the entire time blocking everyone's view. Ts is officially dead. Hardcore music is the new wave.
That look in her eyes when she looks at him. You just KNOW they banged...Kevin Shields is known to be THE most hung guy in Shoegaze, possibly one of the biggest in the world. His cock has been described as "like an evian bottle", with gargantual thickness that would rival Shane Diesel and Shorty Mac. I'm estimating his size to be at least 8.5" bone pressed, with OVER 7" of girth. He would have absolutely destroyed Bilinda's pussy.They would have spent hours and hours on foreplay, getting herself wet enough just so she can take it. I can just imagine her begging for it, with Kevin barely able to force it past the knob, and Bilinda moaning and squirming, demanding him to force it in deeper. She would have orgasm'd within seconds of taking the entire length, being filled and stretched right up to her cervix.. the orgasm would have been powerful, with her vaginal muscles clamping down on Kevin's throbbing monstrosity, her whole body quivering in euphoria..I bet she still masturbates to the memory of it.
Boy this is heavy
>>129056471Nah. When I was buttfucking him I did the ol' reach around. He was hung like a pimple. Killed my boner. Literally.
>>129056334Went the same way as prog rock or thrash metal. The pioneers listened to a wide variety of music that helped them innovate a new sound. The following generations only listened to their chosen genre, and artistic incest followed. How many more boring ass I-IV "pop" songs (it has no hooks, isn't catchy, and the only reason you could possibly like it is an autistic fixation on the aesthetic) will come of this until people collectively hold a wake for this long dead horse?
>>129044578the strokes aren't alternative rock
>>129056181thx anon! Will check me all. So far all recs I've received have been pretty neat.Much love shugazi bros!
>>129058505Indie Rock is a form of Alternative Rock if that's what confuses you.
>>129056334Ghost Bath fucking sucks
>>129056471James maybe, but never Kevin!
Man I remember life when this droppped, kinda miss those days
>>129063782you miss....2021?? Are you retarded?
>>129065782Exactly, shit was different with no shoegaze bands appearing every couple of weeks trying to sound exactly like julie or wisp
any recs for shoegaze albums with metal influences like pic related? and I don't mean blackgaze/post-metal/drone metal or whatever.
>>129063782That zoomslop sucks ass
Hi /shugazi/ Happy New Year Adorável Clichê (from Brazil)https://youtu.be/gX61BoxxQUI?si=F2-bsfkTbvQ-FgLuThud - Floret EP (from Hong Kong) https://youtu.be/pJ1NMkecQAs?si=zKav__IPzp9F_xfP
>>129065782Not too different to missing 2011 in 2016, or 2001 in 2006, or 1991 in 1996, you fucking stupid bitch
>>129065782The pandemic was comfy.
>>129045707>>129045838>>129056181I rarely see this album get talked about often, despite me finding it through an anon rec on a thread that only gathered 5 replies about "optimistic" shoegaze back in 2023>Della Zyr - 여름: 모호함 속의 너 / 2악장 / 놓아줄 때가 되면 놓아주기 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mzi1BYlUv3w9:00 and onwards is pure bliss
shoegays
>>129058749I sure love my Alternative Indie Rock bands on the same label as Britney Spears, Christina Aguilera, NSYNC and the Foo Fighters

Gonna keep on shilling this.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ch1ARjou_NY
>>129070925Labels don't define genre...are you stupid???
>>129070925ugggh this post doesn't even make sense and its probably bait but even the slightest possibly of this being your legitimate argument is rage inducing.
one of the best live shoegaze performancesGolden Hairhttps://youtu.be/e1DkfphhRFw
Is this the year NUGAZE band finally figure out how to play proper noise-rock fukt guitar or are we doomed to another rotation around the sun of Deftones/Slowdive slop…. we shall see.
>>129044683>i didn't hear a single good shoegaze album from the last yearget your ass out of your ears, anon
>>129080496The softer, melodic, feminine side of shoegaze has been lost and it needs to return.The incorporation of nu-metal is ruining the genre. I’m also tired of all these shitty nu-metal opening bands when I go to see a band that actually creates shoegaze music.
>>129080496I can't explain why but I like this album cover
