https://youtu.be/OnFbTWHCoNU?si=rcLDVFuW3ULN6rHqstill the most forward-thinking release of the decade… both these bands are on a different level
>>129319079how'd you feel about Lotto?
>>129318924>What are you guys currently listening to? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zS-oH8-563g
>>129319106I thought LOTTO was an interesting change of direction for such a maximalist band… the Unwound, Slint, IN UTERO influences outpaced the usual Swirlies meets Jungle/Breakcore stuff… still, not a patch on the likes of DESTINY XL and LUCKY STYLES… the Fugazi cover was a cool nod, but wholly unnecessary… if you’re committed to giving us between 22-27 minutes of new music per release then I demand a little more
last shoegaze i listened to was picrel last night. highly rec. closer to noise pop or Slumberland, packs a punch at the right timesPopsicle - "Undulate"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h7oUk_qg7vgwould love recs for any feelgood/poppy shoegaze, power pop influence. feels like there's a lot of slowcore/slacker/depression in the genre, understandably, just looking to feel happy a bithere's another one that manages to be cautiously upbeatLaunder - "Chipper"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nZ_z-yuawkc>>129318947seeing this live is one of my favorite concert experiences. wholesome, fulfilling
Dead ahh genre (wilted rose emoji). Why does gen z ruin everything millenials made good?
>what are you guys currently listening to?Really like the guitar sound on this album, very crisp and punchy, nice pop like melodies too.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GRlmmk1rqII

>>129320038heck yeah Pictures of Health was a top 3 album for me last year. Do you like Autumn Rhythm? very similar, I think they have done a song together or something. the 2024 album is better than 2025 if you ask me but all good stuff, prefer this chord driven music to the washed out sad whammygazehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Llavt9FAQzo

I know shoegaze is usually blown out, but Parannoul and his followers have been a disaster for music.>>129324865Grim.
>>129328683it's a niche genre and we're a month into the year>>129328647got to see them live before they left us at least

>>129318924Thoughts? This is a mu person right?
Julie is so fucking hot AAAAAHHHHHH
>>129332023memes aside you are aware that's not her name
>>129330755amazing album but definitely not shugazi
>>129318924might not be shugazi, but found this track the other day. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IqXFyyN6oKw
>>129332804it's more shugazi than the go team tbf
>>129329487No joke whenever South Americans band together to inflate numbers and push random albums to the top of the charts you should give them a spin. Tons of gems to be found in basically every genre
For dream pop, I've had Beach House's self-titled LP on repeat lately. I think it's very underrated relative to their other releases. It's a little more raw and it's clear they're still finding their sound. I like that, personally. Not a big fan of RYM but it's sitting at 3.34/5, which is insane to me.
>>129333939I love Curve so much https://youtu.be/NKwbx6GLq6o?si=XAMRC1S-TTa0EY1E
Lightfoils - How It Is (2012)https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JTUFXIHbW_Ei dont know a lot from this era of shoegaze but this EP is excellent i think
>>129328683highly recommend the Blackwater Holylight and Tijuana Taxi albums it really isn't that grim they both bring a certain dark, heavy uniqueness to the genre that gets away from the typical sound a lot of people complain about with the genre
>>129334435Thanks, but I'd already heard them both. Wasn't just being a needlessly negative Nancy. TT is garbage, and BH is just OK but not interesting at all.
>>129334435Those both made me realize lowkey how big of an impact true widow has had on the genre. They should get more attention.>>129334449garbage is a wild take
>>129334449I'm sorry you feel that way, anon.
this is beyond underratedmaybe a little heavier than /shugazi/ is used to but damnhttps://shrive-mn.bandcamp.com/album/leach
>>129325351rym is a drop in the ocean, nobody knows this album outside of chronically online internet dipshits
>>129334766it's consistently posted on X too but I get it if you think they're also terminally online becus they kind of are
>>129334774I understand I'm in a minority but I really did not like this album and much prefer Oshin and Is The Is Are
>>129333939people don't talk about the depreciation guild anymore
>>129334033their best workdevotion is the closest they've done to it and i like that one too, but not as much

>>129334449>>129338390why is shugazi disparaging some of the best bands in the modern scene in this thread.Has it always been this negative?
>>129339188No idea what you're talking about. I never disparaged any good bands.
>>129339188I have a hunch it’s the same dude that posts >not shoegaze all the time
heavy echo and reverb bordering on ambienthttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8SAqe7-9am0
>>129319489You ever listen to Sloan? Highly rec if you like 90s more power poppy shoegaze stuff https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VkndFSwr_Oo
>>129339323it's either that or something that's still living in 1991
Julie is one of the only good bands in thirdwave shoegaze, along with Glare.
>>129319079TAGABOW has never clicked with me no matter how many tries I give them but Fully Body 2 is dope
>cursetheknife! - filterhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0FZoSy61PtAThought this was a pretty good nugaze band too
did sonic youth influence shoegaze? the combative ai keeps telling me yes bc MBV cited them. so i guess its like a frankensteiner from the cotwins, joy, and sy idki
>>129340987probably had a big role in guitar dissonance and unorthodox tunings. A lot of their lesser known albums have a lot of what shoegaze going on with them. MBV also cites the Beach Boys as a primary influence too.I don't think any one band influenced what shoegaze became it's just certain aspects of it like you could say Sonic Youth's noise rock with Beach Boys' pop hooks is what Jesus & Mary Chain was going for
>>129340987They predated Shoegaze and directly inspired a lot of it, especially when it comes to using noise to create atmospheres and playing around with tunings to achieve different textures
>>129338115kinda boring in retrospect, the live album they released recently made some of the songs more compelling and louder, they subdued all the louder aspects and texture that were on Deceiver, I think it's their worst overall but I don't hate it it's just kinda there
>>129338115As soon as they went away from the cool Beach Fossils kinda sound and went straight DKFM-core it went to shit imo
>>129342877What do you consider DKFM core?
>>129342983any of the generic overproduced dream-slop that you constantly hear there to fill out the rotation between the actual good shit. I can't even give examples cus there's just hundreds of these bands. Looking at their most recent plays like 90% of this is filler background noise.
>>129318924found this in the archive, how legit is it? What're we changing?
>>129343500Don't love that LSD and the Search for God, SPC ECO, pinkshinyultrablast or Asobi SeksuCheatahs, Aerofall, Slowdive, Narrow Head and Have a Nice Life all had better releases in that decade
>>129343500Ovlov needs to be in there and Bloom held up better than Teen Dream over the years
>>129324865I liked the waterproof goldstar but it got a bit too samey after a while and the lofi production causes too much ear fatigue
>>129343500Needs New Hell by Greet Death imo
>>129343802Reminded me of the new wave of lofi SoundCloud rap using that same sound desu. The zoomers crave it
>>129343594Sirens & Satellites is a great album. Your taste is poor.
>>129318924Absolute gem of early 90s South American shoegaze/electronica/slowcore fusion coming through, big thanks to the anon who shared this a few weeks backhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_zbeuWuLQfU

Yoooo /shugazi/ more like this please and thank you https://youtu.be/xHV6TbAqlhIalso looking for post-hardcore influenced gazey stuff
>>129337629this was pretty cool, never heard of it so thanks for sharing. did sound a little rushed or unfocused somehow, maybe my mind just compares it to Neil's other work which is all pretty darn polished. still some nice tracks here and i like the spacier sound>>129339356oh yeah i do like Sloan a lot but i've never listened to their early stuff, this is definitely a lot more shoegazey thanks for sending it along anon>>129345657this is really nice so far, track 2 reminds me of Bark Psychosis at parts which is cool because they were nearly contemporaries across the globe>>129344360>>129346646based New Hell enjoyers
>>129346856this definitely has some post-hardcore/emo influence in it and it's my favorite from the year so far >>129318933
>>129340178>Julie>good bandpick one
>>129340987>did sonic youth influence shoegazeSonic Youth, Dinosaur Jr’s YOURE LIVING ALL OVER ME and BUG, the wall of guitar on albums like Hüsker Dü’s ZEN ARCADE and NEW DAY RISING… Ride loved those mid 60s Byrds albums… but most importantly? 1st Wave Shoegaze was all about the mindset — how far can we take PSYCHOCANDY, C86, and progressive guitar songcraft.That’s how I heard the best of it, anyways… before it became a ritualized ‘you have to have *this* amount of reverb and *this* amount of chorus and *this* amount of *delay* type formula, shoegaze was a truly forward thinking and new proposition.
>>129347550I feel like I'm taking crazy pills with people saying Julie isn't good in here
>>129348332The music is decent but it's part of the emogaze trend that is being done to death
>>129343500Man what a time capsule. Clearly made in like 2015 since it's missing the entire back half of the decade.If you really wanted to make a list of 25 essential 2010s releases this list would basically need a complete facelift. That said this list included A Sunny Day in Glasgow which means it's based and should never be revised.
>>1293483322020s shoegaze bands shouldn't release full length albums and I'm not joking. They ALWAYS release a couple great EPs before shitting out a mediocre full length. Julie basically pioneered that formula
good ol bandcamp shillinghttps://caesarnixon.bandcamp.com/album/blissgive this a go
I got really into Glare and Sleepwalk.I fucking LOVE their discography.So I decided to see what was popular and kept getting My Bloody Valentine suggested as the OG shoegaze band that is the best.... I fucking hate them!:,(I would like suggestions more like Glare and Sleepwalk>Glarehttps://m.youtube.com/watch?v=KN4vC-CJ1A8>Sleepwalkhttps://m.youtube.com/watch?v=tEWd-GTnLvA>In b4 "Your taste is shit!"I like what I like. Technically I am more of a metal guy and would see Deftones/Teamsleep as Shoegaze. I don't get the culture or what is considered good in this genre and admittedly see the best of the genre as not very enjoyable.
>>129340987This song was reported to be particularly influential on kevin shields and you can hear it in his musichttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G1zPOcllS9Q
>>129349811Sleepwalk is great, I recently got Splatter on vinyl.Some heavier shoegaze(-adjacent) albums/EPs you might like:Holy Fawn - Death SpellsGrivo - EludeLantlôs – Melting SunMoney - MoneyOversize - Vital SignsSoftSun - Daylight in the Dark
>>129350438THANK YOU ANON!I freaking love "Flesh" and "Bumblebee" by Sleepwalk. I'm screen shooting those and checking them out for sure. Splatter is thier best album for sure!I don't necessarily need HEAVY shoegaze, but I like a little edge to my melody.For the life of me I can't tell you why I don't like other peoples shoegaze playlists online or why I can't stand My Bloody Valentine.Have a cute doggo.

>>129318933Gave this a couple listens & enjoyed it enough to snag the vinyl. Nice find/rec. Sad that it'll likely fly under the radar but I think it's quite good for a debut LP.
>>129351355it's definitely been receiving some buzz, you're probably right about it flying under the radar but I did read about it in AnalogueTrash before I saw it here and it's charting on rym so it's decently relevant

where my tweebros at
>>129356649Do people still make twee at all? I guess I haven’t looked really, but I feel like it’s kinda trailed off after the mid 2000s
>>129319489https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ok5ZWXvt_KYBroder Daniel!
>>129348870Just circling back to this because I'm man enough to admit when I'm wrong. Listened to the Julie LP for the first time today and it's painfully uninspired and mediocre. Not bad at all but totally forgettable and my opinion of them was entirely shaped by the EP which I do think is one of the greatest in the genre's history.I disagree that shoegaze bands shouldn't do LPs just because a few have been let offs though. Pinkshinyultrablast kinda pioneered the disappointing LP after incredible EP
3 Doors Down count as shoegaze?

>>129332804This is sick. They only have 2 songs on their spotify though.
>>129360247just like Curve ;(
>>129358994Shoegaze is an EP genre but most people aren't ready to have that conversation
>>129318924not into dream pop anymore but that synth/guitar-like synth at the end is peak existence https://youtu.be/MyqXwEfoPEc?si=KfDGQFCfYbuIfpS2&t=164
>>129360862so many classic albums in the genre though just kind of a crazy take to be penalizing an entire genre cus it's had a lot of the best EPs ever made across all music
>>129361589many albums on streaming include EPs and singles and would be much worse without them. See Just For A Day and Nowhere.
>>129361893yeah but that's sorta just how albums used to be conceived back then. EPs were often seen as previews of a debut LP only until pretty recently. Interpol, DIIV, and a bunch of others released a solid quarter of their debut albums years earlier to get label support for the fully fleshed out project
>>129318924>Look for new shoegaze>It's all buttgazeCan I get some proper shoegaze? I'm tired of everything being so homogeneous butt rock with reverb
>>129362527just listen to Fleeting Joys I guess. Bands and listeners got tired of MBV emulation because they'd rather just listen to MBV
>>129363688But that’s shoegaze. I don’t want a bunch of hum worship that zoomies seem to love so much. I want more bands that emulate the hazy dreamy shoegaze such as mbv. The current trend is buttgaze and emo with reverb and it’s mostly all slop tier.
>>129363706what you want is out there it's just not posted much because it isn't particularly interesting. Speaking just in the last few years anyway. For me personally I like the incorporations of other genres it keeps things fresh if I want the old school shoegaze sounds no one does it like the 90s bands so I'll listen to them
Don't get me wrong i love shoegaze but>comfiest thread on /mu/>fellow shoegazers>spread loveis just so fucking corny man
>>129363803Idk man, just using the copy pasta. Not as corny as 12 active Kpop generals

>>129348332>I feel like I'm taking crazy pills with people saying Julie isn't good in herecan’t think of one thing they do that a literal million other bands on Slumberland Records didn’t do better +30 years ago…. mediocre songwriting, boring ass lyrics and performances, shamelessly 90s “slacker” image and live show… the fuck’s the point? bring some new ideas to the table or trade your guitars in for shovels. stop wasting everyone’s time with this rote, regurgitated bullshit.
>>129362527>Can I get some proper shoegazescroll up, retard
Who the fuck is this person? How did he get all those pictures? Why is he kissing Debbie? Why does the Wipers acc follow him? https://www.instagram.com/chikashiojima23?igsh=MWlzeGVjcXl5eG5hMA==
>>129375518I'd argue they're closer to the Sonic Youth vibe than anything on Slumberland and the Pushing Daisies EP is hook bomb after hook bomb
>>129375570Debbie kissed a friend of mine once she's totally unhinged irl but like in a fun way
>>129377099Julie isn’t fit to lick Sonic Youth’s balls… when they make an EVOL or a SISTER, then they can talk
>>129318933this is so visceral and atmospheric kind of a crazy mix>>129319489amazing, need more like this>>129320257thanks anon listening now
>>129318924Why do the kids like this now?
>>129382106like what?
>>129318924>shonen knife - when you sleep pissmode gaze coverhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8jN8SII8ytI
>>129382106i think the kids are sad, for one thing. slowcore, emo/screamo, shoegaze, etc all are very popular scenes, i feel like when i was young it was indietronica and tappy math rock and more energetic stuff, not so depressivemaybe that's the answer too, this is a pendulum response to the optimism of millennial indie stuff (Passion Pit, surfy indie, etc)
>>129319079ador // ation might be one of the best shoegaze songs ever
>>129384244this is true, it's a carbon copy of the hair metal to grunge transition
>215 replies and not one mention of TAGABOW>people would rather sperg out about Julie and talk about some band no one's heard of <2000 monthly listenersAre they chopped? Didn't they just drop an album a couple months ago? What happened?
>>129388811literally 3rd respone with a few replies. I agree they're good and deserve the talk
>>129389155meant to say nothing about the new album that's my mistake
>>129388246good point, haven't thought of it that way before
>>129388811>band no one's head ofbut that band is very good tho
this hasn't been updated in like a decade
>UK>EOST, Swirlies, Lilys, Telescopes, BJM, Starflyeronce again the US not getting it's due for. influencing the genre
>>129395201Drop Nineteens Erasure
>>129395201Loveless has often more in common with American Alt Rock than what came to be classified as Shoegaze in the UK
what's the deal with Glixen
>>129395411>>129395479it's a crime really>>129395644I didn't even know they were sick
>>129395201>EOSTCzech erasure
>>129396529>>129395644What’s up with them? I can’t find any news
Tamaryn Love Fadehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=anOYvY2eFlISlowdive Sleephttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iNun3Txedik
>>129397087oh there's no news sorry for my ambiguous phrasingim just wondering what their deal is, are they good etc. they're on that big new tour with trauma ray et al
>>129397120that Tamaryn album is one of the best psych/shoegaze crossovers ever
>>129397176any more psych/shogaze mix? I know Anton Newcombe / TBJM
>>129392858None of them have. Too much work and nobody can agree on what shoegaze even means anymore so no matter what bands you put on there someone will complain

>>129362527Take the vocagaze pill. The japs are the only ones making any shoegaze worth a damn right nowhttps://youtu.be/LKm_YdXDZIU?si=wfEdiTHjGo7dLuQAhttps://youtu.be/y51M4-F03kM?si=CWqnUjBaeHi-7DlAhttps://youtu.be/jVJRHPW5hBQ?si=pWzidVeiHIOPPdAf

>>129374154My second favorite JAMC behind Psychocandy and sometimes I think it’s better. Quite baggy and great opener
>>129403350I'll give it a go. I listened to Darklands a week ago and was so surprised how radio friendly they got over one album cycle and assumed it would be more of the same
>>129400321i like kinoue64https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GHnBG6xAPNg

https://youtu.be/scyeLVZ4XZ0?si=_u3kg9-yQpuPP1dwSo real lads
>>129318924So uhh what should be the third album of the Loveless, Slouvaki group since Ride is alt rock garbage after their EPs?
>>129408519Lush - Split
>>129408519the reason Ride is a good third is because it covers a different sound of shoegaze from MBV and Slowdive- the britpop/baggy-influenced side. it's not just the "top 3 shoegaze albums", but 3 that represent the different sounds of the genre
