Chiming in here on the Lush love, by far my favorite band. Concurring on Lovelife being not wholly representative of the sound for most of their career, which makes it ironic that it's the most popular of their albums. A great band, though, and Gala is a guaranteed listen for shoegazer fans everywhere. To contribute to the thread, a couple bands that I think might be worth adding here are Melody's Echo Chamber. Melody's Echo Chamber is a joint project from the guitarist of Tame Impala and a French singer that I couldn't find anything else about, so the psychadelia's there, but it has some dream pop flavor too. "Crystalized" - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v7kVZjPIe1I As for Ponderosa, they're generally more a Southern folk psychadelic group, but they definitely have some songs on their latest album that have a pretty strong shoegazer bent, especially this one.

Speaking of live shoegaze concerts, I saw White Cascade opening for Ringo Deathstarr recently, and everyone stood twenty feet back from it for the entire concert, then awkwardly moved up when the next opener was a different genre, so that was amusing. I think there is a tendency to be somewhat detached at these gigs as opposed to an excitable affair, but I imagine a MBV concert would be different from, say, every other shoegaze act that existed.

Stravinsky posted: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. It's just a sunnier updating of "Girl on a Motorbike" so I don't get the hate?  Stravinsky posted:OCEΔNSS finally put out a proper ep, and it is good This is really good though.

Meanwhile, kinda the same ol' direction for No Joy, but I still find it pretty enjoyable. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aIR7ofKRUroeckoelab posted:but it is a hell of a lot better than this one I don't know, it's not bad for a Curve song.

Knowing Lush got hosed over for the same reasons that ultimately messed over the Smashing Pumpkins, i.e. writing credits being accredited in a lopsided fashion that affects royalties, sucks. Lush is absolutely my favorite band ever. I still think of "Lit Up" as the ultimate song to explain my relationship with my mother and keeping her going through her depressive episodes.
