DREAM POP DECEMBER

Really? Really? My Bloody Valentine?

Because anybody who's actually into dreampop is tired of all the bickering, stupid charts, and general snarkiness, to give a fiddlers fuck anymore.

Has anyone ever taken the time to fix this chart
>>52019626
ye, shoegaze should also be included with dream pop december

>>52019648
we can change that

shameless self bum

>>52019754
shoegaze IS included in NDBPD. It's been since the beggining.

>>52019648
Fuck this, last year was like this, no threads after two weeks. How about we ignore that dumbass chart and keep the dream alive?

>What have you all been listening lately?
>Favourite discoveries?
>Latest shoegaze/dream pop album to blow your mind?
>Who are the percursors of dream pop/shoegaze, The Chameleons, Cocteau Twins, A.R Kane or The Jesus And Mary Chain?

Also, why are Crash City Saints so fucking underrated?

>>52019985
>What have you been listening lately?
The new Craft Spells album, which is pretty good, although I still prefer Idle Labor. Antler's Familiars is also great. Also, The Church is really underrated.

>Favourite discoveries?
Foxes In Fiction, A.R Kane, The Church

>Latest album to blow my mind?
Priest = Aura by The Church, really atmospheric and dreamy jangle pop and 69 by A.R. Kane (all their EPs are amazing too).

>percursors
I've recently became a A.R. Kane fanboy, so I'm biased. Realistically, I'd say Cocteau Twins.

>Crash City Saints
Never heard of them, what do they sound like?

>>52019985
i've been listening to these guys

http://kaironirse.bandcamp.com/album/ujubasajuba

>>52020338
>Foxes In Fiction
Haven't heard Ontario Gothic yet, is it good? How does it compare to Swung From The Brances?

>CCS
Really LOUD wall of sound, sorta like Astrobrite except not as noisy, but definitely as massive. Like a thousand guitars playing simultaniously. Pretty catchy, check out Glow In The Dark Music.

>>52020347
Those guys are amazing, such a shame tht every mention of them turns into a shitposting insult throwing showdown. The sax in that album is GOAT, the sound is original, excellent production, and great psychadelic vibes. The first album is also great.

anything like Swirlies out there?

>>52020769
Are Swirlies even shoegaze? Seemed like generic 90's indie rock.

>>52020880
they're shoegaze but more in the feedback/noise side. their music makes me feel fuzzy, they rule

>>52020347
Finally listened to this yesterday and it was actually really good.

>>52020933
Link to some of their noisier stuff? Always hear good stuff about them.
Weed - Deserve
Yuck - Yuck
Cheatahs - Cheatahs
Ovlov - am
Flying Saucer Attack s/t
Houston - Bottom of the Curve
Medicine - Shot Forth Seld Living

These are some fuzzy ones. I'd say the Weed and Medicine albums are the noisier ones.

This album. This fucking album. Right here. Best Dreampop of the 10's. Prove me fucking wrong.

>>52019985
Crash City Saints
MAH NIGGA, never saw them mentioned on /mu/, one of my favs

>>52020933
>shoegaze makes you feel fuzzy
Exactly, that's why shoegaze/dreampop are the GOAT comfy genres and the best ones to hear in December.

this is my fckn favorite album, enjoy

I don't know if they'd be considered dream pop, but I'm starting to really like the band Pity Sex

>>52021340
They're emogaze, they're welcome. Great band,. You'll probably like Cloakroom and Airs.

>>52021291
this is really nice, artwork reminds me of this, another obscure great shoegaze band from the 90's

why did Tokyo shoegazer break up?

>>52021304
>>52021200
They sound like a more chill Sonic Youth with sweeter vocals.

>>52021269
Never heard this, what does it sound like?

I listened to this all day yesterday and multiple times today, not im listening to the antlers.

>>52021304
Can see why, really diggin it
Love how the bass really plays an important role in guiding the distortion

I'd rec this doozy here, similar on the bass front, drums def have more of lo-fi/distorted vibe tho, and the wall of sound acts as more of a unstable, chaotic undercurrent

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W6G9LRyXOCA

>>52021617
this sounds really unique, thanks, will download

>>52021790
this really sounds like Moonshake's Eva Luna and Quickspace's The Death of Quickspace.
Also, you'll probably like Civil Civic's Rules, it has some really good balance between noise, bass and electronics.

>>52021667
Never saw this one before tho.

>>52021926
>Never saw this one before tho.
Its really good, i would recommend it, im obsessed as I was when I first heard Bloom.

>>52021541
Shit is this true? Damn, they were my favourite shoegaze band from Tokyo

>>52020347
they're a meme band tho

>>52021980
Shit I love it when the bass has that somewhat woody while dreamy tone, so good. The stripped down instrumentation reminds me of the xx. This some good shit.

>>52019754
there's no saving that chart

a simple list of all those bands would be a better alternative

>>52022226
i know right I fucking love it.

>>52022499
A flowchart about how to shoegaze, starting at the obvious entry-level shit and spreading into specific types of sound would be great. It would be a pain in the ass to make such a big flowchart though.

>>52021296
I love shoegaze like this that doesn't rape my ears.
This song is comfy as shit

hows this for a fix?

>>52021296
haven't heard the whole album but so fat it sounds great

>>52022714
so many of these names are so cringeworthy, "Galaxie 500"? cmon.....so many attempts at some "spiritual summit", or natural phenomena, like I'll never listen to "LSD and the search for God" because i'm not a fucking charicature of the psychedlic movement. you just don't put that stuff out directly, its bound to be shit out of sheer attachment to some forced grab for "deeper" levels

>>52022226
Goodnight London is great, its my favorite track probably.

>>52022826
this is pretty good b8

>>52022901
Indeed, >>52022826 sure crafted a well designed b8, like the ones of old.

Mazzy start is dream pop

I want you all to listen to The Radio Dept.

If anyone can find anything by a band called Butterfly Explosion, I'd highly recommend that. Irish band that's mostly dream pop with touches of shoegaze. Really sweet sounding stuff. Difficult to find though, they were pretty obscure.

>>52022714
i'd put deerhunter closer to rock than to electronic

anyone listen to Niz before? they only have one EP but the story is pretty interesting.

"In July 2007, two people seeing My Bloody Valentine at Fuji Rock formed NIZ with groundless confidence which was like “We can do more than they’re doing, yeah? “. In October 2008, the band set about song writing and recording without planning. Atsushi started practicing the guitar, Hisae bought a bass at that time. They went on to do recording without knowing even how to hold a guitar pick."

Depends what album you listen to, some of their stuff is like a more experimental electronic beach boys imo
