That video is also super :yayclod:

It reminds me of walking home from middle/high school, that weird little window when you and your friends were free to be silly and do whatever. And it matches the music perfectly.

Do you folks have any feelings to share about Silversun Pickups Widow's Weeds? I listened to it over the weekend and enjoyed it. I can hear Butch Vig's work, some of the tracks feel even more Smashing Pumpkins-y than previous SSPU albums. And I dig the pair of Neon Wound into It Doesn't Matter Why, it's anxious and high strung.

It popped up a bit in the indie rock thread, but yeah I like it. It has a different feel to it than the previous stuff, but I said the same thing about Neck of the Woods when it came out and over time it became my favorite record of theirs.

I loving love Songbirds, holy poo poo.

haha. a while back I took a walk through an old dying shopping mall I used to spend a lot of time in as a kid, video arcade, food court, etc. hadn't been in there in 15 years. a depressing experience heightened when I heard a familiar song off in the distance... as I got closer I realized it was Lovelife from Split. song off one of my favorite albums of my youth being played as muzak in a dying mall.

that said, they need to reissue that on vinyl, it's expensive on discogs.

If My Bloody Valentine are a 10 and Chapterhouse are a 1, I'd put Lush at a 2.

I really want to see Cocteau Twins live before I die.

I'm gonna be the unpopular guy here and say I love most things shoegaze, but I've just never liked My Bloody Valentine.

Lush, though, one of my top three all-time favorite bands. I'm bummed they couldn't make the reunion work; they're one of those bands I never saw live when they were together, and then for a fleeting moment I thought I might have a chance.

I read a little about what happened in the Cocteau Twins in a book about the history of 4AD. they ain't coming back.

I also learned that their daughter is an Anime person who does cosplay.

I guess I get it in a way. Lush doesn't have the intensity and shear noise MBV does, so it comes down to very specific taste. But drat I loving love Lush. And Chapterhouse. And Cocteau Twins.

Wow, that's basically a how-to-shoegaze video. Didn't realize distortion, reverb, and strumming with the whammy bar is all it took. I don't play guitar anymore, but when I did I had this mid-90's Washburn with a floyd rose tremolo (very springy, impossible to keep in tune) that would have been perfect for that, I think.

I've got a 7 string Ibanez with a Floyd Rose trem, and it's fantastic for shoegaze. Actually stays in tune, too!

Cool! I wonder if the pawn shop I dumped mine on still has it. That was 5 years ago, though. Eh, I don't think I'd buy it back. I'd want to switch tunings frequently and that was a massive pain on that guitar. You had to open the back panel and mess with the spring coils back there.

Well that's why I asked if this was the right thread . Listening to those songs they're pretty good but not quite the same kind of music I was thinking of.

I like the darker, "gothier" stuff I guess you might say? I'm bad with band names in general, I just listen to radio playlists and stuff. I was kinda hear looking for recs on actual stuff to listen to. i miss Gothic Paradise Radio.
