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
>Glixen

Give 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.

Went 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?

The 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.
