This isn't exactly shoegaze, but this video features my old dream pop rock star crush, looking rather different these days... could it be the hair?

"Writer and broadcaster David Quantick reads passages from his book 'Memoirs Of A Shoegazing Gentleman' - with the help of Lush's Miki Berenyi - at The Social in London on July 7, 2014."

seems another one of my '90s faves is getting back together, Prolapse. Not exactly "shoegaze" I guess, they were "post-rock" whatever that is, but I feel like they sorta scratched the same kind of aural itch for me.

Dunno how many in this thread are familiar with Band of Susans, they may not be "shoegaze" exactly, but they scratch the same itch in my brain.

given the way the tour ended (Phil abruptly leaving the band before the last show) I assume there was some kind of drama behind the scenes.

No Joy is responsible for some of my fave "shoegaze" of recent years. everyone should go buy their last 2 full albums if you haven't already.

I didn't realise Phil King torpedoed the Lush reunion. Wonder what was up with that.

not sure I want to know what happened, really. pretend they got a happy ending to it all.

her twitter is great. she was an adorable Babygoth back in the day.

The best Curve album is Come Clean and the best track on it is Cotton Candy, but you're welcome to disagree.

Also the best track with Toni Halliday on it is this:

uhhh actually it's cuckoo. but anyway here's another obscure Toni guest spot with Alan Wilder from Depeche Mode.

haha. a while back I took a walk through an old dying shopping mall I used to spend a lot of time in as a kid, video arcade, food court, etc. hadn't been in there in 15 years. a depressing experience heightened when I heard a familiar song off in the distance... as I got closer I realized it was Lovelife from Split. song off one of my favorite albums of my youth being played as muzak in a dying mall.

that said, they need to reissue that on vinyl, it's expensive on discogs.
