Rec me modern Dream Pop edition
I like kairon irse
giving this a shill/rec. not sure if it's strictly /shugazi/ but I would definitely describe it as pretty dream pop-y. bassist is the bassist from Fishmans

Do you guys like Lenny Valentino? I'm looking for more artists like them.
>>71603923
oh shit, I just noticed the copy I used for the share has a bonus track that's a cover of KC's I Talk To The Wind. what the fuck? lol
guys
dumb down how to make vocals like

thanks

Thanks, and double thanks for mega link
>>71604238
no prob. I saw it get recced to someone as being something to listen to if you like Fishmans, and I was surprised at how great it is, might even make it up there in my favorites of all time
So have you guys listened to this yet? What do you think?
I thought it was garbage. Apart from the obviously stolen aesthetic, the shit production, the lame pounding drums, the shitty dated post rock tremolo picking, the shitty halo guitar chord progression, the fact it's a tryhard 25 minute track even though it was obviously all separate tracks at one point, riffs that sound like they were pulled straight from an At The Drive In track, riffs that sound like they were pulled straight from a Smashing Pumpkins track, the half baked emo grooves, again the shitty balance in the production, the repetition stolen from the same source of its aesthetic, the really shitty impersonations of Wata, more Smashing Pumpkins rip offs, even bigger riffs ripped off from Flood (the riff at the end is such a fucking joke it's like come on, were you even trying to hide the fact that this is a blatant rip off of Flood?) and the end result being a perfect mishmash equivalent to a bowel movement (I mean literally when you think about it)
, this album would be pretty good if no other alternative music ever existed.
>>71604410
name?
>>71604590
loopride, umi
>>71604624
>>71604590
sorry, looprider
so a band named after a boris track tries to make an album that rips off boris' flood, but fails in every way
>>71604308
yeah this is v nice, and the bass sorta has the fishmans dub feel
>>71605003
yeah, you can really see the Fish in bass playing
This is the only album that gave me the same feeling as when I first heard Loveless. So underrated.
>>71605615
their self titled is also great
bump
Don't let the best general die
>everyone too busy gazing at their shoes to post
Only 3 songs but they sound really good to me.

Just be really breathy
what is your favourite shugazi album that you would recommend to every shugazi fan?
i really dont know what to listen to next.
i like noise heavy shugazi, like APTBS.
Curve was never shoegaze, I don't know who let them in this genre.

>>71605615
name?
>>71611134
All natural lemon and lime flavors - turning into small
I agree with him btw, a must listen
Need stuff like Tokyo Shoegazer asap.
>>71610775
Ceres and Calypso as well as V:D:C pretty much sold me on the genre.
Any bands that have a depressive, heartbroken, bleak lyrical themes?
>>71612409
xiu xiu
if we consider them noise pop
Why is this so good?
Are any of their other albums nearly as good?
>>71613042
what's your favorite song on it?
the other albums are great and definitely worth a listen but drop you vivid colours is probably their magnum opus
>>71613122
Top 3 (in no order) is probably:
Sun Ray
Utatane No Hibi (L'ecume des Jours)
Drop You Vivid Colours
>>71613122
I think that luminousorangesuperplastic is better.
Just getting around to this which was posted here a few threads back, very wonderful
https://youtu.be/FcZOnrL9VKM
>>71603923
Damn, this is pretty good. Definitely reccing it
>>71613042
Only listened to this once but I remember liking it well enough. Really need to revisit it
>>71603923
Thanks, this is awesome.
>>71613229
Also, I kept thinking this album reminds me of the opening to anime "Denpa Onna to Seishun Otoko" which the anime wasn't great but the OP was, funny to find its the same band
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i6fwe3EFTRQ
>>71603923
Is there more from these guys? i'm trying to google them but there's too many bands called Polaris.
>>71613516
here's their RYM:
http://rateyourmusic.com/artist/polaris_f3
I haven't listened to any of their other stuff, but a quick glance shows that you can find it all on soulseek
>>71613468
You just sparked my interest, i love that OP as well. I'll write the band name down and listen to them eventually.
>>71613570
Thanks, I found them on discogs (turns out they were one of at least 32 bands with that name) and it didn't even have all of their releases.
>>71613042
It's not that good
>>71614432
(not true, by the way)
>>71615110
I mean it's ok
>>71613042
Turbo R is really great. I love how extremely muffled and incomprehensible the vocals are. Wish more people also distorted the singer instead of just covering up what would be clear vocals with guitars.
Oh also the title track is 10/10
>>71616546
I get sonic youth-y vibes from turbo R but without kim's trash voice

SHUGAZI, I NEED:
Ethereal but clear (not buried in the mix) female vocals. I've been listening to Love Spirals Downwards a lot and her voice gives me chills. Bonus points if they're dynamic and not just mumbly like most shoegaze. I've checked out some ethereal wave essentials and most kind of suck.
>>71621572
idk try this

>>71621572
Have you tried Bel Canto?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h7_gYDDMLOo
>>71621522
I can't explain why but I really like the vocals
>>71621084
oh ok. i just had a quick search on the band and it was niegeless
i'll listen to it then senpai
>>71619744
Their s/t sucks, endless guitar loops that don't even have the trip-hop novelty to keep them interesting.
Lushlife is stupid underrated though, I like it more than any Portishead album
I never understood why Alcest are considered shoegaze. I love them and can see the influence they had on blackgaze, but most of their supposed shoegaze sections are just normal distorted metal guitars playing slightly fuller chords than normal. No delay, reverb, chorus, or normal effects.
>>71621625
all good mayne. You should definitely check it out, .neon (and Lantlos in general) is pretty great
>>71621729
damn those are some good niege screams
is he the one singing clean too? sounds weird in english
>>71620743
Meh I don't like this as much as A Storm In Heaven
Since there's some Frenchgaze discussion happening, anyone listened to the new Heretoir tracks/album? I think it'll be really good, it's heavier than their debut but the songwriting is definitely stronger.
>>71621812
I believe so. and metal-archives only lists Neige as a vocalist on the album
>>71621812
opposite for me desu
Help faggots. I'm sure this gets asked a lot but I've listened to the shoegaze classics, but nothing holds a candle to loveless. Maybe it's just because I'm depressed but no other album was as evocative and stayed in head to the point where I'll randomly start singing its sounds. So I guess rec me some moody, atmospheric, mostly depressing shit?
>>71622033

also seconding ANL&LF but adding Turning into Small alongside their s/t
>>71622624
have you listened to Wild Nothing - Nocturne
>>71612409
have a nice life
>>71622746
mercury rev is hardly shoegaze. just noise pop really. still really good tho.
>>71622777
still fits under shugazi
>>71610775
have you listened to our lord and savior Loveless?
Stuff very similar to Crystallize by Tokyo Shoegazer?

He is so cute and sexy.

ERSATZ WINDOW - BOXING 14-15
it's really good
>>71619055
I say yes, but what do I know.
Do you know any album with the same vibe as Grouper-AIA Alien Observer ? Something very calm and dreamy https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=sb5ZCr3YkM8

Any good Irish Shoegaze out there, other than mbv of course.
Anyone listen to the new Spectres or Jesus and Mary Chain? If so how are they?
How many pedals do I need to get good?
>>71628883
2 to start
20+ to be Jesus
>>71628905
Which are the essentials
>>71628950
Big Muff + Memory Man is the entry level combo
Once you start dipping into boutique fuzz/distortion/reverb pedals you'll know it's too late to save you

I'm drunk and listening to Deafcult while skating around town. What are you guys up to on this bacchanal day? :3
>>71603777
Salvia Palth is my personal favorite, but it has psychedelic parts added to the dream pop
by "eating it" I mean eating souvlaki ofc
ah rookie mistake
pls forgib senpais
Also, Jaguwar from das überlegenes Deutschland is pretty gr8, no?
>>71634697
I'm drunk as well, just finished listening to Souvlaki.
Looking for something as floaty and dreamy as Souvlaki. I went through most of the dreamy stuff on the shugazi charts and want more.

Kinoko Teikoku - Eureka

Thanks bud, listening to it now. Sounds good so far.
>>71634919
Wishlisted for future listening. Thanks!
>>71634821
It was a good listen.
I liked that it wasn't very subdued, but it kept a nice calm mood throughout. The dreamy male vocals were really nice too.
Post answers to To Here Knows When
as in, song that contains a constant drone that shifts in pitch (bonus points if it pans from ear to ear :3) and great to listen to while smashed drunk and lying on the ground

>>71635887
I don't really know anything like it.
The only similar things that come to mind are songs from LSD and the search for god and them swinging the tremolo arm like crazy and Birchville Cat Motel - Uneaten Stars Duo, but that's just a drone that modulates it's volume up and down.
>>71604061
Sing softly, record 8-10 takes for each section, choose best one and raise volume slightly. Apply reverb.
That is the summary of what Kevin said in an interview once
>>71622274
Think more about how the words sound rather than what they mean.
any bass pedals i should look at for shoegaze?
don't die
someone recommend me some heavy shit that'll overwhelm me with sound, but isn't overly aggressive

https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCyyzwng8tNyq7e6q9c2PPzg
Start with drop your vivid colors and go to the one with the long name.
Also listen to Oeil
Recommendations for someone trying to get into the genre, but isn't a fan of pop? Shoegaze is inherently poppy, I get that, and I would like to hear something more aggressive, but not blackgaze per se.
>>71641988
You could try Kairon;Irse - Ujubasajuba for something more post-rocky, or maybe A Place To Bury Straingers - Exploding Head if you don't mind some post-punk/noise rock
>>71642097
Kairon; Irse sounds like what I want. Thank you. Any more recommendations?
This album is absolutely adorable!
If you haven't experienced this yet, you need to.
>>71645015
is that a vagina?

>>71639526
>>71641988
see >>71632582
the album as a whole is noiser than that song he posted though
I really want to like this album more than I do. I love the arrangements but Cradle Burns and Speed To My Side are the only memorable tracks.
>>71648024
Thanks. That seems like someting I'd like. Any more recommendations?
Any shoegaze recs that are more lo-fi and DIY like pic related?
>>71649068
Try Astrobrite and Lovesliescrushing. I personally don't love them but they have their own following. Super Crush, Pinkshinyultrablast, Whitenoise Superstar from the first and Bloweyelashwish and Xuvetyn from the other.

Spectacular...this is criminally underrated. So hazy and dreamy. I love it.
does folk-gaze exist?
>>71658301
Wild Ivy League is the closest you're probably gonna get. There's also Mojave 3 and Mazzy Star which are more dream pop folk than shoegaze folk. Flying Saucer Attack - Mirror iirc has some folky tracks but the rest of the album has space rock and drum and bass influences.
>>71656830
vocals are meh

Give me some good blackgaze bands.

Loveless is half baked garbage with only 2 good songs on it. It's like staring paint getting dry, tedious and unrewarding.
>>71660612
You do, but only two thirds of the songs on it.

Is this shoegaze or blackgaze?
>>71661924
Lenny Valentino is/was kind of a side project composed of members of Åšcianka, Myslovitz and Negatyw.
Åšcianka is the most 'alternative/experimental' of these bands and in my opinion the best of them.
Myslovitz is more popgaze/dream pop like.

>>71669541
Mysterious Skin's score is beautiful. My absolute favourite film, almost as if it was made specifically to appeal to me
What kind of guitars should I be looking at if I want to get a shoegazey type sound? I've heard that Jazzmasters and Jaguars are pretty popular but I'd like to learn more.
>>71672047
big fan of their previous record, should I bother with this? I heard it's bad.
>>71672365
The guitar isn't that important honestly. The Jazzmasters and Jaguars are popular for their tremolo arms if you want to get that subtle, wavy pitch you hear often in shoegaze. Single coil pickups might be a little noisy if you're using a lot of gain so that's something to be aware of. But then again, they might sound cool if you're doing clean, Slowdive-type sounds. The effects are much more important to the sound in shoegaze. Shop around and find a guitar that's comfortable, sounds decent clean, has a tremolo if you want it, and looks cool.
>>71650824
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=P3LdOlX1CkE
Fuck they're good. This one sounds like Shellac and Chuck Berry combined
any of you fellas got a zip for this album? Also looking for similar synth-gaze or electronic music with a shugazi feel with little to no instruments.
>>71629142
just picked up a PN-2 and a Yamaha SPX900
am i shoegaze yet????
