I will take any opportunity possible to talk about Brian Jonestown Massacre so here go: They released their second album in 1995, called Methodrone  It's definitely my favorite shoegaze album. It's got some standard (but great) shoegaze type stuff like this: Wisdom - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tpWf91743js Wasted - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xIcpxAfdvrA Everyone Says - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gNIwI8iE6bY As well as some really cool more experimental stuff like this: Crushed - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7HtRCimrNkQ Hyperventilation - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=69r4cA7EEgE And then there's this which is just phenomenal (listen to this if none of the others): She's Gone - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OzoI0l0fRCY Unfortunately after this album they never quite returned to the shoegaze sound; settling on a more psychedelic, space-y Rolling Stones type thing. All their stuff is great though and worth checking out.

Floodixor posted:Has anyone seen the shoegaze documentary Beautiful Noise? I've really wanted to see it since I saw initial blurbs about it when it was still in development stages a while back, but haven't gotten around to it yet. I'd love to know if any shoegaze fans in this thread have seen it and what anyone's thoughts are about it. I watched it and its pretty good if you just wanna nerd out about shoegaze and watch all your favorite artists wax nostalgic about it I suppose. Rageaholic Monkey posted:I saw it and it's alright, but I've heard there's better documentaries out there on the same subject which is pretty easy to believe. I haven't seen them if that's true, though. I'd certainly love to know what these are!

Smithereens posted:hi fam, I love spacemen 3 and especially love galaxie 500. Nothing else quite scratches the galaxie itch for me but black tambourine comes pretty close. As to overlooked bands/albums, I'm not sure if the OP mentions asobi seksu if not this is a crime Chapterhouse is contemporaneous with the shoegazer scene and usually regarded as something of a "me too" act but I think their album whirlpool is pretty solid and adds a unique madchester twist on shoegaze For some lesser known contemporary stuff I'd say try out tashaki miyaki, lilys, viva voce Also galaxie spinoff Damon & Naomi aint too bad

Fart of Presto posted:Just saw them live this past weekend. They were excellent! Seeing Ride was definitely one of my favorite shows. I don't know how I feel about these sorts of bands coming back and recording new material though, neither their's nor Slowdive's new stuff really grabs me. Or J&MC's new stuff for that matter, and I absolutely adore them. WhiteHowler posted:I think my favorite song of last year is "All That Heaven Allows" by Mercury Girls. I dig this, thanks! Also I love this gem of a comment on the video: xxoxx ooxoo1 posted:sounds good, but most of the words are indistinguishable.. can you put lyrics so that we aren't just blindly listening to poo poo.
