smashing pumpkins - mayonaise, easily #1
>>130029647>>130029704I'll check it out
>>130029647cocteau twins has nothing to do with shoegaze and mbv
>>130029647FCC's pretty dark, Liz's deteriorating relationship was definitely on her mind with that one. I would say M&K is more abstract than that album is though. I wouldn't say Garlands is "post-punk inspired" either, it's straight up early 80s goth.

>>130029637Lush!Listen to Lush they are great!I recommend their albums "Gala", "Spooky" and "Split"My favorite songs of theirs are Desire Lines, Superblast, De-luxe, For Love, and Lit Up
>>130029637Ride is the best shoegaze band and their best albums are Nowhere and Going Blank Again
>>130039144It's crazy that they were once partof big 3 and now they have fallen in popularity compared to MBV and SlowdiveAlso their reunion albums are seriosuly underrated, even Interplay was decent
