bad look aaron, cmon

 

is he just kidding? is he shameless? both? who can say

 

The new Ghost Gum record that dropped last week is fantastic The Past, The Future, Dwelling there like space, by Ghost Gum

 

Newmoon record comes out next month, very tempted to preorder

 

Best shoegaze/dream pop records to throw on before bed/fall asleep to?

 

Do you happen to have this? PM me if you do!

Ah I didnt get it at first, but saw Flower Crown post in self promotion thread gives me idea.

 

some of this definitely fits into the dream pop/jangle pop realm

 

So the new Newmoon LP is out today and its awesome!

 

I'm excited to hear this, that first 7" was dope

 

The more ambient/floaty the better. Take your pick from:

Auburn Lull - Alone I Admire
Slowdive - Just For a Day
Cocteau Twins - Victorialand
Malory - Outerbeats
Flying Saucer Attack - Further
Southpacific - Constance
Hammock - Kenotic

 

didn't know this thread existed but ive been really keen on shoegaze and dream pop lately.

Winter

 

It's so good!

 

Any love for Swervedriver here? They have some classics from the 90s...

...but IMHO, they might've released their best LP last year (I Wasn't Born To Lose You), 18 years after disbanding.

Anyway, my shoegaze go-tos have always been them and MBV. I also love Mew to death, though I guess they'd fall more under dream pop. I've struggled to get into Slowdive the times I've tried, though. Will try to check out some of the other big names in this thread soon.

 

Where do I start if I wanna listen to Cocteau Twins? I don't know what they're like but with shoegaze/dream pop it's best for me to start out where it's more song like than free form texture kinda stuff if that helps anyone

 

Heaven or Las Vegas is the best entry point to the band and is one of their most accessible albums. After that the next choice would be Treasure, which is a bit darker.

 

Thanks a lot, I'll check back in with what I think

 

good 2016 shit

 

Whoa, surprised to see Anakin here. I stumbled upon them randomly back when they started and it seems like their following is still really small.

My favorite of theirs is the Emergency Broadcast System EP. Honestly, their stuff is pretty formulaic and predictable and they haven't shown much musical progression from album to album. But if you like what they do, they do it well, and there are always a few cool and unique songs per release.

 

Its so cold and rainy out in Northern Ontario today, perfect day for =shoegaze/dreamy goodness!

 

hmmmmmm

I have no idea how well made that list is, but I'm definitely gonna use it to find more stuff to listen to. People elsewhere tend to laud the same few bands, so hoping it's a little more diverse and I can find something cool

 

going to listen to that playlist, we'll see
almost stopped reading when nothing was on it though
