Shoegaze

colonol_k [Edit] [Delete] 35 replies 10:50, 27 July '07

Well, 'nu-gaze'.

http://arts.guardian.co.uk/filmandmusic/story/0,,2135023,00.html

This is in today's Guardian if anyone's interested. Actually, it's still there even if you're not interested.

Nowhere is a very good album, isn't it?

      • shoetronica = lols

        i downloaded Working For A Nuclear Free City's album a while ago, and I can't work out if I like it. I think it's the bad Mani basslines that put me off..

        • Can't get that link

          to work.
          But yeah, Nowhere is great. Going Blank Again good, and Tarantula patchy. In my opinion anyhow.

          • you have to

            highlight it, copy and paste it.

            • I think you forgot to add

              "because Sam's a MOMO!" to the end of that.

            • Shoegaze =

              Awesome. I love stuff like Ride, MBV, Chapterhouse and Slowdive as well as the late 80s indie bands that paved the way for it, i.e. Mary Chain & House of Love.

              Can't knock it.

              • I'm DJing on a boat party

                stag do for one of the Chapterhouse guys tomorrow. 3 of them will be there....I think I'll play 'Falling Down' or 'Pearl'

                • Please everyone

                  make it so I never accidentally hear any shoetronica

                  Lucien | 27 Jul '07, 12:26 | X
                  • Maps

                    or Ulrich Schnauss could possibly be described as shoetronica...?

                    • I prefer

                  • you sure?

                    can send over loads of stuff.. and it's pretty good! (m83 best I can think of but there's plenty more - haha)

                • DiS coined 'shoetronica'

                  http://www.drownedinsound.com/release/view/9565

                  It was a joke, mind.

                  therapyrock | 27 Jul '07, 13:11 | X
                • Nowhere is amazing.

                  On the subject of shoetronica, Nathan Fake is playing the Luminaire in October.

                  • ooh

                • I read that this morning.

                  Good article I thought. I want to see that documentary where they interview Trent Reznor et al.

                  lemonbrickcombo | 27 Jul '07, 18:30 | X
                • I <3 Maps and Nathan Fake

                  Yet know little of the history. I should probably rectify this

                  dove_from_above | 27 Jul '07, 18:52 | X
                  • They're both playing

                    in Nottingham on 25th August. That will be special.

                    • yes

                      two very good bands there, nova saints OWNED at dot-to-dot.
                      been a fan of exit calm (and before lyca sleep) for ages

                        • no mention of loop

                          who i've been listening to today. a gilded eternity is second only to loveless in the shoegaze charts. i can't say that i really care for any of these 'nu-gaze' people, although i did enjoy blonde redhead in nottingham earlier this year, though they aren't exactly 'nu'.
