Bump from /goth/ \ono/
we're so backthis is a more recent album that I've been enjoying. Check out if you like Cocteau Twins kind of sound. Has some trip hop infkuence as well on some trackshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CjvMfS4aFxQhttps://deary.bandcamp.com/album/birding
Thoughts on the new Tokyo Shoegazer? I'm liking it enough to listen a second time but that's probably about it.
>>130102164the second part of the s/t track is sooooo goodd
these guys just released a pretty good albeit mbv-worshippy album. i'd recommend checking at least Come Today. they call themselves "truegaze"
>>130102164Way better than Moonworld Playground but doesn't even get close to the heights of Moondiver imo. Pretty good! Love the bassist on this

>>130117802You can look in the site settings, both in desktop and in mobile, and select “thread watcher” and “thread updater” to add a bookmark as well
>>130117819Going to be a common answer, but Loz Colbert from Ride. His performance on Dreams Burn Down is one of the best drumming in shoegaze.
>>130118583deafheaven are great but i think they definitely moved away from their strong-suit here desu

>>130102134Nice.
>>130125021Someone made this like a month ago, so it’s a bit outdated. That new Tokyo Shoegazer posted above is also good. My favorite from this lineup is the waterproof goldstar - kinda has SoundCloud trap vibes to nugaze, which I find interesting
>>130127730Oops here is the chart
>>130123968What’s the trippiest and hoppiest of the albums? Got a favorite track?

>>130127738>What’s the trippiest and hoppiest of the albums?definitley their third album, Lushlife. Favorite track for me is Passages but that's kind of a contrarian pick.Their 2nd album, Beat, is more ambient, but still great.first album is more traditional shoegaze

why do so many nugaze bands stylize their name with all lowercase?
>>130101809>What are you guys currently listening to?I'm listening to Jefre Cantu-Ledesmahttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R6qoDtlHooIhell yeah. the bassline on blue nudes is glorious
>>130154720TikTok syndrome
>>130155802>mbv Nah you’re right lol. It’s definitely more popular now. Though, why did all the 00s emo bands have song titles that were full on sentences? Why do noise rock bands always stylize their names in all caps?It's all scene coding to some extent
>>130112047what is this version of lovelss? is like a remastered for the japanese fans?

>>130157954my favorite is 70s/80s bands with single word names
I've become a bit disillusioned with shoegaze over the past 3-4 years. The new wave of bands is just not really blowing me away. Most of them are pretty boring or just outright alt-Metal acts disguising themselves as shoegaze. In fact my home state seems to be produced new bands at a nice rate that get some nice nationwide attention, but I've seen them all live and they all kinda suck in terms of presentation and sonic weight. The hands are changing and the people at the ground floor making this scene a big deal don't seem too bothered in the music being pretty same-y. Probably just me.
>>130161674Average deftones fan

>>130204539Dragging a dead deer up hill is such an incredible album and to find it during your uni years is special.I can remember a time I walked around my snowy campus with a joint, that album and my phone in airplane mode to take pictures distraction free. Surreal experience
>>130101809Bumping with this underrated masterpiecehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N5oiirQkivI
>>130209718It’s like Ride, but with emotions. Tfw it’ll never be on streaming
>>130205144havent heard this one before
>>130212476Ride doesn't deserve the title of best alternative shoegaze, adorable should rightfully own it. I love ride, but this is miles ahead
so when are we gonna admit that Astrobrite solved shoegaze?
>>130204539we need more acoustic guitargaze
>>130216284For me it's My Vitriol
>>130208230yeah, one of my all time favesher entire discography is good, really
I literally can't find other bands like JAMC, They just hit the sweet spot and they're so fucking cool I love BRMC too, they're cool, I mean all these bands have similar vibes with mbv, they're so cool but melancholic
Saw julie + fleshwater in new haven last night. Julie's set definitely beat expectations. Though it seemed the crowd was more excited for fleshwater. It would be cool to meet more musicians into shoegaze/alternative, if you live in New England.
>>130220288>New Englandin in NY but from CT, there's a couple bands in the New Haven area doing it nicely, keeping an eye out for local gigs would be a good way to meet folks i betdead doehttps://deaddoe.bandcamp.com/album/fountain-horseflyWestern Reservehttps://westernreserve.bandcamp.com/album/singlesand of course Sundots and the extended universe there, like Pulsrhttps://pulsr3000.bandcamp.com/album/the-threebut sorry if you already do this or if you're not even really local to new haven
>>130209718imagine if Pablo honey was like this
>>130101809As a listener of shoegaze, I sometimes read the phrase 'russian shoegaze' posted on the internet, but I have never heard any.Is it real? Is it good?
>>130223841Listen to Aerofall self titled
>>130223841I rather think of blackgaze when it comes to Russia.
>>130223841I usually think of Blankenberge and pinkshinyultrablast when it comes to Russian shoegaze

are we excited for simon reynolds upcoming book on shoegaze, still in a dream?
>>130233197Not familiar with his game, but I see he listed Migos - Culture II as his aoty 2018. Very odd pick lmao
>>130219541Check out raveonettes - lust lust lust, if you haven’t already. I can’t see similarities there. Early Telescopes as well perhaps https://youtu.be/p5fQO2vADqk
>>130234548I CAN see similarities I mean
>>130234515haha, yeah, weird choicewhere did you find that information?

>>130220719Thanks for the recs. I can make it to nh somewhat regularly. I go to nyc about once per month too.Any good bands to check out, or any upcoming shows? In ny>>130229062Yeah I was a surprised too. The show is advertised as a co-headline, but Fleshwater has been taking the late slot this tour. Julie's music has been out for a while now. Their popular songs are from 2020. I think a lot of the social media hype has died down. But their new stuff is really cool. The songs only played live. Clearly pivoting into their own flavor of rock music.
Fake World Wonderland is better than eureka.Also if you like Kinoko Teikoku, Soutaisei Riron is also really good https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n-DtHukc1Ls

you guys have such lovely souls.. the shoegaze taste you show here is mostly beautiful
>>130117819https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qhj7k7C7SBEthe guy from Ringo Deathstarr is solid. I think is name is Daniel
>>130275788https://musicoftheferns.bandcamp.com/album/fronds-in-high-placesthis was recommended to me in the past when I pondered the same question. I think it fits that well
>>130278184Wow it's pretty cool. Very different.
>>130265913I like the previous one more. The harsh lo-fi sound of this. Sounds like listening to pop while drowning in an ocean of codeine>>130268234Unsure, I think maybe just spammed here hard back in the day. You may be thinking of Kraus
>>130277895Man they haven’t released anything in years right? Maybe I haven’t looked much

>>130103325>truegazeThat's a funny and also good identifier considering most young persons definitions of shoegaze is so fucking broad bowls I'll have to check it out. MBV always will be the pinnacle for me and I can only applaud trying to do a tribute band to them. It's a behemoth task.
Someone's prolly posted this before. Good band. I like this strain of modern shoegaze over the mounds of grungegaze being pumped out constantly.forever DnB/Jungle-gazehttps://youtu.be/V1aDCfm1fWA?si=ntRdw_FslRSV05MU
>>130166204none of those bands are good actually, they are all style over substance
What happened to Kraus? He was on a heater for a minute, but it's been 5 years since the last record and all he's dropped since then was 2 songs a couple years ago. He was my front runner for best shoegaze artist coming out of the post- pandemic rush of bands who started to play shoegaze. Hope he's been cooking up something.
2010s shoegaze was a golden era, didn't know it at the time but it was a niche fledgling thing that had a lot of variety and was interested in the first wave of shoegaze revivalism, now it seems the genre is more concerned with being 'heavy' and chock full of the correct aesthetics rather than a interest in sonic textures, there were bands like Nothing who were doing the whole Hum heavy gaze thing don't get me wrong, but it wasn't the dominant mode that gets copy and pasted like now
