blackhouse records Posted August 24, 2016 Share Posted August 24, 2016 Not sure if this completely falls into the category, but I heard a band called Gleemer from Denver, CO(?), and I wish this would get pressed on vinyl. They have a Bandcamp, but they don't have any LP's out (only CD/CS). Maybe someone can convince them someday... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

radiatorhums Posted August 30, 2016 Share Posted August 30, 2016 Chasms has a new LP up for preorder. Juan described them as " a noisier dream pop a la King Woman.", which I think is fairly accurate. https://chasmssf.bandcamp.com/album/on-the-legs-of-love-purified drds89 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After Ringo Deathstarr's Mauve, they went quiet for a year or so, but then started up again.

Dreaded double post. While editing -- it's CAD not USD, so I think it's about $28ppd and change. Not tooooo bad from the Great White North for a single LP.

Guess it makes sense that Sonic Unyon would take part since their offices are right in the area. hookedonsonics 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hear DIIV vibes in the music as well. Just goes to show it pays to check out as many bands as you can on a label that has a group you like a lot ("Be Forest" here for me) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monastic_mike Posted September 16, 2016 Share Posted September 16, 2016 I learned of some interesting bands in this thread. And while I consider myself a fan of the genre, I feel complete led to remark that it's all a rehash of old stuff. The Last band I heard that really dazzled me was cheatahs who played at my neighborhood record store for RSD a few years ago. They aren't the most original but the songs are well crafted.

Monastic_mike Posted September 16, 2016 Share Posted September 16, 2016 I read about Rev Rev Rev here in this thread. Not bad but very MBV. They have K SHields strumming with the whammy bar down pat. While its not bad, its a rehash in my eyes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Suggestions on bands pushing Shoegaze forward? I like early Cheatahs; their new one sounds like an entirely different band. So I shelved it for 6 months, and pulled it out pretending it was not Cheatahs -- it's much better. I'm not sure what you mean by pushing shoegaze forward? There are so many 'undiscovered' or simply lesser known early 90's bands being pressed now (Thank you, Saint Marie and CT), and to hear their nuances of the varying elements of 'shoegaze' is great for those of us not immersed in the scene at that time. There apparently were 00's bands keeping the torch lit, too (ex: Airiel, Asobi Seksu,...) I'm always 10 bands behind on catching up with new 'old' bands. Do you consider the likes of Anne, The Black Ryder, Nothing, Whirr, Death Of Lovers, Iris (RIP), Indoor voices, Modern Charms, We Need Secrets, Stargazer Lillies, Static Daydream. Threading, Venera 4, Wildhoney, P4S and dozens other newgaze bands just copycat or static? Or do you mean like more experimental elements 'pushing it forward' like PSUB which also have the ethereal vocals? I'm not sure what you're looking for? Maybe the same complaint we're seeing in postrock/metal - 'post-postrock' -- a select few bands managing to keep things fresh, adding some different elements and still managing fresh riffs and structure, or merging elements of other genres? Maybe if you consider the noise element of original shoegaze and how Scott Cortez projects... to modern day APTBS "noisegaze", -- is that pushing it forward?' Newer bands put their own signature on it, without being totally copycat, and also create new riffs which are fresh and just as addictive (ex: some Ringo Deathstarr) Or how the dreamy element grew into a TONNE of groups, so dreamgaze is massive - yes some copycats, but still plenty of fresh sounds (ex: Lowtide with male:female bass player-vocalists) Folkgaze? Nocturnes Stonegaze? True Widow Psychgaze? No Joy Dronegaze? 93mmfts Metaldoomambientdronegaze? The Angelic Process, Nadja/Aidan Baker Gloom/doomgaze? HANL, Miserable/King Woman, Ides Of Gemini, Center Of The Sun (rip),etc. ___gaze: fill in the blank I've left so, so many out. This is constantly my world of discovery; I post way too much here for knowing so little, but appreciate all the scouts posting recs.
