Would anyone consider The Chameleons to be Dream Pop? They're one of my favorite bands. If anyone hasn't heard of them, they were an english Post Punk band from the early to mid 80s that released a few albums before disbanding due to the death of their manager in 1985. They have some great guitar work and melodies, and their 3 main albums are consistently good. They aren't really shoegazey, but they could still fit in the thread.

Going to see The Pains of Being Pure at Heart on Friday. I heard somewhere that they're not particularly good live. I hope this is not the case. :ohdear:

edit: I went to a pretty lame Radio Dept. show at Bowery Ballroom last year. They kinda just phoned in the show. Went on stage 30 minutes late, played for 50-ish minutes, and didn't even give an encore.

I've seen them two times so far, and I think they are good live. Music sounds especially great, and vocals are usually pretty consistent. They seemed like cool people and put effort into both shows as well.
