Band moved from Russia to LA?

I rather like like her vocals more upfront

We'll see what they do with the music portion, in LA, and down to 2 instrumentalists. I'm not overly smitten by the music on this one track on first listen.

Love the EP and the 2 LPs, regular rotation, and #2 son enjoys when I spin them.

I dig it. I'll buy anything this band puts out though.

 

Been jamming this lately: https://lifeonvenus.bandcamp.com/

 

also no idea if this has been posted earlier but only a few more days to preorder the first Daysleepers EP: http://www.tonevendor.com/item/42615

autolux - "turnstile blues" (one of my most favorite albums)

 

flyying colours - "wavygravy" (in my opinion one of the best shoegaze bands to come out in the past 5 years)

 

the distortions - "this place doesn't have the balls to kill me" (worth a mention because I've never seen them mentioned anywhere)

 

guitar - "honeysky" (very MBV influenced)

 

mystery machine - "horn o'plenty" (90s Canadian band, only their first album was released on vinyl but they tell me that they are re-releasing a couple more on vinyl soon... they sound kinda like Swervedriver but a little more indie rock than shoegaze)

 

hundredth - "youth" (darker and harder shoegaze)

 

ex cops - "separator" (I was pretty fond of this debut and think it's pretty solid all the way through. I was really dissatisfied with their second album though as it was a change in direction)

 

for reference, some of my favorites are Swervedriver, Catherine Wheel, Film School.

 

(I realize now that at least one of these bands was previously mentioned which I'm not really surprised by. The search function on this site needs some work)

what a time to be alive where Hundredth are mentioned in the shoegaze/dream pop thread. But indeed is their most recent record really 'gazy and atmospheric as opposed to their kind of cliché melodic hardcore sound from earlier stuff. I'll have to give them another chance I guess.

indeed it's a complete change from their earlier work which was not my thing at all.

Anyone get Catherine Wheel's Chrome shipped yet? I have a copy on order at Bullmoose, but I think it may have been delayed to tomorrow.

No, and I'm a bit surprised because my Neil Young and Mazzy Star both shipped and they were delayed until tomorrow as well.

I'm still waiting for mine. There was likely a delay with mine because of payment issues. Looking forward to comparing it to the original.
