/shugazi/ - dream pop shoegaze blackgaze noise rock noise pop

>>73953548
can noise rock really be considered shugazi?

>>73953626
why not?
all the genres I listed put me in a similar spot on the feel spectrum, noise rock just more energetic.

I want somebody to talk about shoegaze with
Im sick of talking about it to strangers on the internet

>>73953775
still one of my favorite albums ever. All the shilling I did of this album has payed off

>>73953928
Probably one of the most meaningful things I did in college, it was great and I made a lot of cool friends and got to meet a lot of chill musicians as a result. Nobody SUPER SUPER big though, Beach Fossils was probably the most popular.

Learned a lot about music too and was able to get a lot of tunes ahead of release date due to promo companies sending us stuff to play all the time.

Definitely do it

>>73953733

Not mad or anything, just think its cool a lot of people on here like them now. Makes me happy.

>>73954383
I got into them with Psychopomp a while back, the LP was sent to my school's radio station when it dropped and I fell in love immediately with the sound. So happy I was able to finally see a live show, for free too

>>73954362
Their first one for me was too enamoured by its influences. I feel that with I Believe in You, they really came full circle.

>>73954383

I just listened to Psychopomp recently and it was pretty damn good.

Finally gave this a listen too recently and I thought it was pretty 'eh'.

>>73954419
I found Big American Sound on bc forever ago and fell in love. It was actually the first thing I ever bought from bc. Ive still got the tape they probably hand recorded too. (REALLY quiet and hissy.) Got to see them live at Cats Cradle. Fucking amazing live!

>>73954471
No, I just dont like the average person who visits this board. For example not that long ago there was a thread with this same album with WHITED as the subject.

If you spam any random shit you can get these retards to listen to it.

>No, I just dont like the average person who visits this board
I can agree with this I guess. Every now and then I find a person capable of critical thought thats fun to talk to and every now and then someone posts a meme thats actually funny and not some shit rehash and it makes me think there's a decent amount of people here are alright.

also, could anyone tell me why it's called "shugazi"? newfag here

>>73957027
shoe gaze
because theres so many pedals guitarrists keep looking at the floor during performances
or thats what ive heard

Someone recommended Ambersmoke in another thread and I'm really digging them

>>73957027
Because it's a play on Fugazi.

>>73957027
I believe it's in reference to a post made years ago where someone thought "shoegaze" was pronounced "shugazi" like the band Fugazi.

>>73953548
Hi guys I've never really listened to shoegaze but I've heard that when it started out part of it was that it was played loud.
Anyway, my question is that is is album in op actually sir, can I go to sleep to it? I've been having trouble sleeping without music recently and I'm getting tired of AMSP and that one sigur ros album. Also this is off topic but any sleepy album recs I'll happily take. Thanks guys and have a nice day

>>73969472
Hunt the sleeper - my bees garden
Hidden lands - candy claws
Person pitch - panda bear

Happy sleeping friendo

>>73969472
the thing you are looking for is ambient shoegaze/dream pop.
Pygmalion and AIA Alien Observer could accomplish that. I´m talking about those two because they are the ones I know well and are pretty popular in the shugazi charts.

>>73969472
anything by Windy & Carl
try Antarctica although I think that's one of their least shoegaze/dream pop albums and is more electronic ambient

>>73953548
I enjoyed this album but I don't get how it can be considered shoegaze

>>73969525
Thank you I think I will listen to person pitch but I have added them to a list of suggestions :)

>>73969417
One of my all-time favorites. Ian Masters had the voice of a fucking choir boy.

He had a terrific project with the dude from A.C. Kilgore after he left Pale Saints called Spoonfed Hybrid. Not quite shoegaze but definitely dream pop. If you haven't heard this, you need to.

Check out the entire Bliss Out series by Darla Records. Windy & Carl, Fuxa, Flowchart, Amp all have really stellar ambient shoegaze EPs.

Shoegaze is dead. It was too formulaic to really have a future.

>>73969618
damn,he looks like Robert Smith´s soft cousin at 1:25

no apparent passion,calm,unaltered voice and everything is organized

>more popular now than it ever was ~25 years after its original heyday

I agree with you that it's an incredibly formulaic and sometimes stale genre as a result, but it's far from "dead".

hi shugazi

>>73953626
some of it
noise rock is an umbrella term imo. Think about Dinosaur Jr, Big Black and Lightning Bolt, almost no common elements (besides being noisee xD) and all of them are considered "noise rock".

I'd consider "noise/alternative" to be part of shugazi. Stuff like Weed, Yuck, even some jam bands like The Psychic Paramounts.

Bump.
What's everyone's /shugazi/ AOTYs so far?
I've been digging the Heretoir, Slowdive, and White Ward albums a good bit.
New Archivist, Planning For Burial, Ride, and Shelling have all been decent too.

>>73969725
wrong meme
the fact that the holy trinity,CT and JAMC have millions of views is something really far from dead.

it's limited yes and it's hard to find a way to innovate it successfully but I've seen its popularity rise steadily in the underground

it's just a matter of time for faggots to say that When the Sun Hits or Sometimes the pleb/normie songs of the genre

>>73969851
Shoegaze was always "underground". It was supposed to be the next it genre in the 90s(in Europe) but the media killed it in favor of britpop.
This is why plenty of bands like Ride, Curve, The Verve and even Blur early albums are shoegaze or have a shoegaze influence but then later they went full britpop.
It's still a obscure genre, but it has more relevancy nowadays thanks to the internet.

theres a album i found in one of these generals a long time ago but frogot the name of. The bands name was 4 words with no spaces an the album in particular had a pink background and a deer(?) any ideas?

>>73970819
I've only heard like 5 albums from there. Is this really the best 2010s year for shoegaze? Better than 2015?

>>73969472
I second Person Pitch, Slowdive and Alien Observer. I'd also add stuff like Laughing Stock by Talk Talk, Set Fire to Flames, Bowery Electric, Trementina, Pinkshinyultrablast and maybe LSD and the search for god

I also experiment sleep troubles

>>73971509
I know it's a meme to hate on the Sunbather/Ceres&Calypso/mbv trio but you're sorely mistaken if you think anything from 2015 tops those three alone.

What the 2010 album with the moonrunes and the mom and baby on the couch?

>>73971611
Man I love Sunbather/C&C/mbv, Deserve and Weed are two of my favourite albums ever.

2013 had the best albums from this decade, I can't disagree with that. But besides those ~6 great albums from 2013 there's not much to hear. 2015, in the other hand, did bring us the best from the undeground shoegaze scene.

They're really not that unknown at this point look at how many people bought their last album on BC alone. And every band popular or not has a right to charge for their music.

Also you get unlimited streams on BC anyway, I don't know what the fuck you're complaining about.

>>73969472
i usually like to listen to MBV (the album) before going to sleep, i don't know why exactly but it always put me on a sleepy mindset.

>>73963008

Music is a dying industry for a reason. Put on a show if you want to get paid, the music itself is so easy to get for free that it really might as well be at this point. And yeah, it sucks that means people can't really expect to just write songs for a living as reliably now but that's life. It also sucks they can't eat ice cream for a living, nobody is bitching about that though.

>>73969725

Lush dreamy noisey guitars isn't a "formula," people just need to catch on that you can do a lot more with shoegaze than pop rock. The main issue is that the fans aren't really that open to it though, for whatever reason.

>>73975357

Yeah, people have been saying that since 1993. Punk's been dead since the 80s too if you listen to some people. Hip-hop, reggae, house, rock and roll... everyone's said they were dead or dying as soon at some point or another. You shouldn't trust rock journalists. They're salesmen.

If its not shoegaze its definitely /shugazi/

>>73970819
So far Japanese Breakfast and Jay Som are the biggest contenders.
Ambersmoke was good too, but its a bit dissappointingly like generic shoegaze compared to the rest of their discography, though they do mix some post-rock and slowcore kinda sounds into it too.

Anyone got some recs that you think are AOTY contendors? I still need to go through more of this years shoegaze releases.

I usually love bands like Japanese Breakfast but her voice really grates on me for some reason

>>73953548
I dunno, personally I think her general sound is great but the melodic elements mostly don't really click with me. Diving Woman is 10/10 though

I can't stop listening to this, it's slowly draining all my sanity

needs more tweegaze

>>73984538
So what's up with ・・・・・・・・・ anyway? Are they like some kind of idol-performance-art project?

>>73985463
agree

>>73984538

Thanks, my boi. Didn't know about that Shelling.

>>73982210
Listening to some of these starting with Panda Riot and so far they're pretty good

Best general

>idol-performance-art project?
Narrow that down to just "idol group" and you're right.
Seems to be backed by some of the guys from For Tracy Hide and My Letter on songwriting and production though, so it might be a more "indie" endeavour than something supported by a big production agency.

Anybody a fan of Cemeteries on here? I saw DDB's music video for "Sodus" half a year ago, and have been hooked on them ever since.

His album "The Wilderness" is great, if you're into spacier dreampop (with some psychedelic rock influences). What Did You See is a hell of a song, but Summer Smoke might be overtaking it as my favourite song off of it.

>Narrow that down to just "idol group" and you're right.

I guess I never saw gaze and idol going together so I figured there must be some degree of irony or subversion going on. Plus they always wear those weird masks.

But the whole idol thing is pretty alien to me, I'm only a moderate weeb.

>>73984276
Any reccs for similar stuff?

fuckkkkkkkkk just listened to psychopomp and it was trash.how come 2017 /mu/ likes this garbage

>>73984276
I fucking love her vocals desu

I love this. Is there anything similar but with male vocals?

I've been on high school radio for 4 years. Planning on doing college radio as well. It is more than worth it if you've got good equipment

>>73990668

it doesn't matter, bandcamp gives you enough listens to determine if you like it

I did uni radio for three of my four years as my only extracurricular and it ended up being one of the things I looked to most each week.
I've still got a bunch of my themed setlists saved.

it had a few good songs but was overrated imo

>>73987963
I liked it in 2016. Eat dick.

More like Weighing Souls with Sand? That's the best damn shoegaze-y album I've heard in a long, long time. Probably since HoLV clicked.

Which do you like better in shoegaze, male or female vocals?

>>73993748
It really, really, really depends.
But I would say male takes it just barely.

>>73993748
I hate melodic female singing in shoegaze and dream pop. I also hate screaming.

You're seriously missing out. Especially with the singing

I'm kind of a shugazi newfag and eighth now Candy Claws - Ceres and Calypso is one of my favorite shugazi what are some albums like it

I had the perfect shoegaze moment the other day. Me and a girl were cuddling whilst listening to Lush. It was just like in a dream, magical.

>>73995577
>you're obviously missing out
I will listen to male vocals in shoegaze, if anything just for the sake of not missing out.

I just prefer female vocals

>>73995702
Fuckkk I need to listen to Spooky again(& or get a girlfriend)

this is amazing, i had only listened to a little bit of them and like them, but didn't know they had made something like this.
makes me even more excited to see them when they come to town in the comfy fall.

>>73995702
Fuck. This makes me think of when my ex and I used to cuddle and listen to Depression Cherry.

DEPRESSION Cherry, am I right? hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahah :,)

>>73975357
> It also sucks they can't eat ice cream for a living, nobody is bitching about that though.

You do know that making music is producing something of value, while eating ice is consuming something of value?

>scarlett johannsen made a dream pop album

did anyone listen to it?

Nothing, as far as I can tell from 4 years of searching. The albums that came closest:

>Cults - s/t
>Panda Bear - Person Pitch
>AnCo - MUH GIRLS
>Melody's Echo Chamber - s/t
>Sugar Candy Mountain - 666 / Mystic Hits
>Dumbo Gets Mad - Quantum Leap
>Temples - Sun Structures / Volcano (probably the closest one)

It turns out nobody else has thought to combine shoegaze, exotica, and dinosaurs.

im back lol

>>73953548
>ended up falling in love with her
saw them a few weeks ago, yea me too

>>73995591
Listen to the rest of their discography. Hidden lands and in the dreams of the sea life are all just as good, their earlier stuff is okay but a little rough. Also they did a side project called sound of ceres, its a little more poppy than shoegaze but still good

>>73997463
bitch im gonna see them live next month

Thoughts on Lowlife?
Good mix of dream pop and post-punk. Remind me of early Cocteau Twins but with male vocals.

Maybe that of HNW-gaze. If that's a thing

>>73999805
Only listened to their last two, they were awful

>>73969472
How has only one other anon reccd Grouper? She played 6 hour long concerts intended to lull people to sleep according to wikipedia iirc.
Anyways, A|A Alien Observer is good like that other anon said, so is Dragging A Dead Deer Up A Hill and just sbout everything else she's put out, though some of it is more sleepy/dreamy than others

Is she really a qt?

Show us a pic

indigo is blue by catherine wheel is somewhat similar

>>74003144
I liked guilty of everything a lot more due to its punk edge, but this was a good album too. More alternative rock and dream pop than I hoped for.

Also, am I the only person that thinks turnover is one of the blandest dream pop bands out there?

>>73988858
this absolutely; dream dub

>>73997172
bump for interest, where is it, where can we listen to it?

It's shit just like all her shit music.

where is the /shugazi/ essentials chart?
