Did That on Television posted:I don't find a lot of shoegaze especially memorable although I enjoy much of it when I'm listening to it if I'm in the right mood (high?). Is this an unpopular opinion, should I just stick to dream pop? Listen to whatever you like.

Also, The Radio Dept needs to release some new material already...

Shoegaze, at least in its stereotypical form, has always been about losing yourself in the moment and experiencing it rather than crafting catchy riffs that stay with you for days on end. Going to call this approach the Slowdive way of doing things. However there are plenty of shoegaze bands out there who are err more to the side of You Made Me Realise by MBV which have hard pounding hooks that will stick with you. Swervedriver, A Place To Bury Strangers, My Vitriol, and Coaltar Of The Deepers being prime examples. In a completely direction, Brazil has a really neat shoegaze scene. The Sorry Shop, Bela Infanta, Loomer, Kiergard, Lê Almeida, and Medialunas all have been getting plenty of playtime recently for me.

Uniscott posted:Well, I guess I don't know how to search for stuff. A lot of smaller Japanese bands tend to not release their albums in the us (for different reasons like licensing issues, not worth the effort, not giving a drat, etc.) so you have to specifically search .jp websites instead of just googling the bands name and buy.

sticklefifer posted:We don't really have a post-metal thread, do we? I don't know where else this goes but it's shoegazy as gently caress anyway: It is funny how there is now a trend for the blackgaze bands to start dropping the blackmetal part and lose what little they had to be interesting becoming more and more just straight up shoegaze. Like this is album just sounds like the guy is trying his best to be as boring as Jesu is now. .Neon and the self titled are much better imo.

We are solidly in the 3rd quarter of the year and it feels like nothing much to get really excited about happened this year. But here are some stuff that has come out so far that me and other dudes I have been talking to think are good. Aerofall https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EomTV_XPkZ8 Shoegazers from Russia. They released a self titled and it blows their 2011 entry, Seasons, away. This album may very well end up being the album of the year as far as the things covered in this thread go. Hot Glass http://littleleaguerecords.bandcamp.com/album/only-animals-your-chance Irish group. Only a two song release but I am pretty hyped for what they do from here. Only Animals is a really good song. nothing http://wearenothing.bandcamp.com/album/guilty-of-everything To be honest, I am not really feeling them. But some people seem to be really on it. Sounds really boring and uninspired to me. magic love http://magiclove.bandcamp.com/album/dawn-ep Japanese unit. Soundtrack to laying on a grassy hill looking at clouds for me this summer. Daisy Face http://daisyface.bandcamp.com/album/slow-approaching-nothing Another group that some people are on that I am not up on. Has that slow midwest emo sound to it. September Girls http://septembergirls.bandcamp.com/ Another Irish group. The opening guitar riff on Cursing the Sea I have heard a million times before in other songs. Strata Florida http://saintmarierecords.bandcamp.com/album/made-of-stars The more unique one of the group. Louise Trehy's (one half of Swallow) new thing. I would definitely say this is something you should get in on. Noir For Rachel http://noirforrachelband.bandcamp.com/album/fog-museum Another band that I picked up thanks to cruising polish and russian tumblrs. Has a pretty pronounced post-punk sound to it. there's also Ceremony which I have mentioned earlier in the thread. What are some recent things you guys have been listening to?

Rageaholic Monkey posted:Is there anywhere to rent Beautiful Noise? I went to rent it last night but saw you can only buy it for $15 on Vimeo, and I don't really feel like paying that much to watch it once. Floodixor posted:Seconded by me, as well. No sorry dudes outside of being a backer or paying for a dvd/blueray or going to a fest where its showing your going to have to go through vimeo at least for the time being. Maybe one day but its not really their priority right now when they are still getting caught up with fulfilling backer rewards and orders.

Enough about boring soulless electrogaze before someone decides to seriously recommend Ulrich Schnauss. For people who think there has not been any real gaze bands since the 90's, Swervedriver put this out last month and it is really boring and disappointing. Here is some cool stuff instead: Mumrunner are some dudes from Finland who put out two songs and I am really feeling it. Cloakroom some of their songs have a late era sonic youth feel to it OCEΔNSS finally put out a proper ep, and it is good Noir For Rachel is just pumping stuff out. Bills himself as darkgaze but whatever check it out because Fog Museum was pretty good. This compilation was released like two days ago and is really worth copping because it does a great job of gathering a bunch of different recent acts from all over with different styles. I don't care if you ignore everything else I put here if you download this. This was probably the aoty for me last year: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0_a1xpOb6wY also make sure to peep the entire channel and follow it because just like the japanese shoegaze channel you can pretend you know something about east european shoegaze. Speaking of no one ever talks about The Ecstasy of Saint Theresa which is a shame https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QNXUQ1mOrV4

nosl posted:Super entry level, but does anyone own Loveless on vinyl, the original, authentic pressing? Is it worth it? I'm not into a lot of shoegaze as a whole but very into this particular album. I used too until I sold it right before the last album hit (getting that hype cash) and it was fine and can't remember anything bad about it but I would never spend that much money on a record
