I've missed /shugazi/ this week, where've you all been friends? This is the best general btw.
This is a very good year so far for Dream Pop, with Japanese Breakfast, Jay Som, You'll Never Get to Heaven.
Any more good straight shoegaze releases? Other than slowdive ofc...
I'm really enjoying pic related, check it out -

That album cover looks gorgeous anon, being the petty person that I am I will check it out purely because of that. Tried this album recently, very much like it.
>>74184411
The album is really gorgeous too IMO, the songs blur into each other a bit but its so dreamy and I love it...
If Black Marble - It's Immaterial where Black, then Images is white, is how I'd describe it.
It's distant and dreamy, but also floaty and sweet.
>>74184430
Listening to it now, God this is good anon, thank-you for telling me about this. This song seems to have a glockenspiel on it (White Light at the moment), really comfy without feeling too drony.
>>74184451
glad you're liking it, honestly it might be AOTYSF for me, overtaking Japanese Breakfast
>>74184465
I can certainly see why you'd say so. I really need to give that Japanese Breakfast album a listen. I'm going to go through all of those You'll Never Get to Heaven albums loads of listens today, see what they're about. Love Images thus far.
>>74184399
Really good album OP, definitely one of my favorites for the year. Pic related is my favorite track. As far as shoegaze goes I'm still really digging the new Deafcult. I would say Secret Wisdom and Rubix are the best cuts on it.

I keep missing /shugazi/ threads these days. Are we not having daily threads anymore?
Deafcult have been my shit for the past week or so
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=whQPOJHZOhM
>>74186804
/mu/ is less and less about music and more about shitty memes and hip poop.
>>74186804
idk, someone just needs to keep making these threads...
I think there was probably a person consistently making them until recently...
Also maybe the noise rock general is taking some attention? It's a good general too though.
Has anyone got that chart of this years releases, I could do with checking some more out.
>>74186442
I love this!
Anyone knows anything as calm and relaxing as pic related? Like something you could sleep to.
I need some more summery shoegaze. Whatchya got?
Been loving pic related lately, the opening track is especially catchy.
>>74186409
Damn I've been putting off checking out Jay Som for a while now, looks like I really need to give her albums a listen.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UTUinavMQtk
I'm in love with this!

Thoughts on these lists?
Don't you die on me best general
>>74187698
new album soon pls
>>74194334
remember that ep of theirs that was spammed a lot a while back?
>>74194334
They're working on it.
Jen Goma's solo album from this year was pretty good too.
Almost done listening to Supercrush for the first time, was pretty good.
This version of Bottlerocket gave me a boner
Pic related is some pretty good raw amatuerish bandcamp shoegaze.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N7AKDvyBNss
Only 5 ratings on rym atm so you get to be super cool. It's probably my shugazi aoty at this point, but I'll probably get bored with it.
Album is Be Where I Am by Bare Pale btw. Yes, I realize that this sounds like self-advertisement.

>>74196495
That's cool. I go back and forth with them, although I currently prefer Crush because it's dirtier and louder.
All Scott Cortez projects are pretty good tbvhwu. Have you heard much of his other stuff?
>>74196516
>Songs from the South Island
First album I ever got by him. His guitar playing is so very psychedelic. Dissolve was awesome too.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CPZeTXoxSqM
>>74186409
I had one of the most profound acid moments ever to Everybody Works, such a great album.
Jay Som reminds me of my high school
i wanna see a show
>>74197553
Where u from??
>>74184465
I'm fucking in love w her!
>>74196593
No actually, just Crush, Supercrush and Deluxer. I have Whitenoise Superstar too but haven't heard it yet
>>74198928
>I have Whitenoise Superstar too but haven't heard it yet
That's a good one, if you're enjoying his work so far I'd definitely recommend it.
He also has some more projects. If you love the atmospheres of his music and can handle ambient pacing, then Loveliescrushing's album Bloweyelashwish is very nice. There's also Star, which is a Cortez project with a faster pace and cutesy twee-pop-esque songwriting.
>>74199013
star
is bad
and his worst project
>>74199979
Devastator is one of the best shoegaze albums ever though.
It's a little poppy, but the instrumentation is fantastic and Shannon Roberts is an incredible songwriter.
Deafcult, a band from Queensland Australia, with such a huge dense sound. I saw them live as a support band and I had never heard of them prior and they were so good. Definitely worth a listen.
>>74186314
The male singer has a Jim Reid sound to him, I like it.
Alison's Halo > Slowdive
Fight me
>>74200448
Very good stuff.
reposting this great dronegaze
>>74200995
Alison's Halo is so good that I can't even get angry at you for believing that.
>>74197327
Is that good or bad?
>>74197553
I'm from New Zealand
tfw MBV never came here
>>74201148
Good stuff. Not shugazi, but when checking for them on youtube I accidentally stumbled upon some jap pop rock band that was surprisingly decent.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OAoFvUhgKzQ
>>74201148
this is pretty good, I really like shoegaze with drone influences
I went to sleep and best general is still alive!? godbless im proud of you guys
stuck in the shoegaze rotation for the past 9 months and im okay
>>74200995
I've only ever heard Eyedazzler and I gotta day it felt boring and lifeless. Like it sounded forced and not genuine
ive been finding myself listening to this album a lot lately
https://kimonolights.bandcamp.com/album/trick-or-thriller
good stuff, it's more on the fast and harsh side, reminds me of Technicolor Teeth
I've recently started listening to this type of music, any of you anons can recommend me albums like pic related?
I'd be happy to hear from you shoegaze, dream pop and etc. enthusiasts your recommendations. Thanks!

Anyone listened to the previews for the new Alvvays album? There's definitely some dream pop in there. Very much looking forward to it.

Holy crap, this is good man! Thanks, got any more reccomendations for me? Appreciate it.
>>74205824
not that similar, but still a very solid album nonetheless. it's lbasically a combination of doom metal and shoegaze
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LxiJSif55fk
Randomly clicks this on Youtube rec because of the song tittle. I ended up liking it
Hibou - Valium

Seeing some good stuff being posted here, but I need to satisfy my shoegaze itch. Anyone got some recommendations?
