05.11.12 | The "gaze" in shoegaze always makes me think of people staring at their shoes in awe, getting strong romantic feelings for them - which makes me laugh pretty hard. |

just to clarify - you're saying shoegaze is ludicrous because its emotional?
or the literal aspect of the shoe-gazing |

They rockin Jordan's?
Have only listened to 1. Deftones is influenced by gaze and I like that. Which one of those is most accessible? |
Wolfhorde
05.11.12 | "you're saying shoegaze is ludicrous because its emotional?"
lol, no. I was just making fun of the word "shoegaze" or "shoe-gazing" by taking it literally and being hyperbolic. |

AliW1993
05.11.12 | Awesome list, props for Spiritualized. |
Aids
05.11.12 | yeah this isn't worth a feature at all. nice list though. |
Deviant.
05.11.12 | I'm willing to feature any list where the user has put some effort into it. If you have a problem I hear complaining helps |
Aids
05.11.12 | there aren't even any descriptions...how is this a list with effort put into it?
I do love to complain. |
Deviant.
05.11.12 | "there aren't even any descriptions...how is this a list with effort put into it?"
Because it isn't "it's raining, here are some digs" or "my dog got sprayed by a skunk". It's a list designed to serve as an introduction to a genre. I imagine at least some time was taken wondering what was going to be on here.
Besides, the other lists had been up for a few days now |
Aids
05.11.12 | yeah idk this list is nothing special but whatever, i'm off to find some beer! |
Deviant.
05.11.12 | Well in all honesty one of the requirements in featuring a list isn't to run it by you first to see if it's in fact "special" |
Deviant.
05.11.12 | I like seeing Riff take a deep interest in things, it's like watching nature's frenzied efforts to fill a vacuum |
Deviant.
05.11.12 | And yet here you are, account made and commenting |
insomniac15
05.11.12 | Brian Jonestown Massacre - Methodrone is another great shoegaze record. However, great list! I must start listening to some of this stuff. |
Paracletus96
05.11.12 | dREemshoe is da best genre!!! i love my bloody bullet valentine!!!1 |
YankeeDudel
05.11.12 | Its always funny to see guys like Riff act like everybody has heard these albums already. Dude never does anything but
listen to noisecore and power electronics in his basement. Some people actually do stuff other than listen to music 24/7
and god forbid dont have 40 shoegaze albums. Alot of the albums here only have a handful of ratings and dont have a
review, so how well known can they be. I for one need lists like this b/c I only have Loveless, Nowhere, and Souvlaki as far
as shoegaze goes. So thanks Grave Ill check some of these out. |
Tyrael
05.11.12 | Riff, whenever I sign in on sputnik you're here. EVERY GODDAMN TIME.
So yes I'd say that Dev's description is pretty accurate
oh and please for the love of god: GET A LIFE |
Deviant.
05.11.12 | "if my input in this site is considered deep interest,"
I wasn't talking about your input, I was talking about the fact that you're still here. I know you were probably in a rush to quickly type up some kind of sarcastic response but you should try reading first |
Masochist
05.11.12 | Good, good list! I was thinking about making exactly this, but it wouldn't have been as comprehensive as this. Good job including Moose and Starflyer 59 (though I would've chosen a different Starflyer album).
Still...some additions:
M83 - 'Dead Cities, Red Seas, Lost Ghosts' (which isn't really shoegaze, but really kinda is)
Trespassers' William - 'Different Stars' |
Graveyard
05.11.12 | "so how many times u gona make these generic lists of fairly obvious bands and try to pass them off as feature-worthy?"
Tbh this list took about 2 hours make |
Graveyard
05.11.12 | and fade the only worthwhile list you made was that grind one so you have zero room to talk |

05.11.12 | "this is literally the first page of RYMs highest rated shoegaze albums, copy pasted nice and gently. how is this even an effort"
Yes there are some similarities, but if you actually paid attention to RYM's highest rated shoegaze albums you'll notice some of that stuff isn't shoegaze at all. For example
Cocteau Twins - Treasure
Slowdive - Pygmalion
The Cure - Disintegration etc.
so stfu up fade
