| Underrated 2019 indie/gazey records
Here's some good, somewhat overlooked indie-ish stuff. I'll try and do a bunch of these this year. Honourable mention: Celastrus. | | 1 |  | Seasonal
Heading Nowhere
post rock/shoegaze
This is a very beautiful post rock record. Its songs are long and quite 'hypnotising'; perfect for chilled out late nights. Check this out if you're into pretty stuff. | | 2 |  | Better Off
Reap What You Sow
indie rock/pop punk
While this might be Better Off's weakest offering, it shouldn't be overlooked. Songs like the title track, Slingshot and the Deja Entendu-esque Parting Gift are absolutely beautiful. If you're into any type of indie-inspired pop punk you'll probably get something out of this. | | 3 |  | The Day
Midnight Parade
dream pop/shoegaze
'Midnight Parade' took me about ten listens to fully appreciate, mainly due to its occasionally samey nature. However, the best tracks on here are absolutely gorgeous while never feeling out of place next to some more 'boring' songs. Don't worry though, every song here is at least pleasant.
If you can't be bothered checking the full thing out, give these songs a listen: Where the Wild Things Are, Yet to Come, We Killed Our Hearts, Berlin | | 4 |  | Violet Cold
kOsmik
black metal/post rock
Violet Cold's latest offering is a soothing, yet quite unsettling record. It builds tension incredibly well and is very pleasant to listen to, with eerie moments only adding to the fantastic atmosphere. | | 5 |  | Cosmetic
PLASTERGAZE
shoegaze/indie rock
The new Cosmetic record officially releases tomorrow, but has been streaming on Bandcamp for a while. The amazingly produced record might not be doing anything special, but it certainly knows how to keep your attention. The combination of fuzzy guitars, beautiful harmonies (in Italian) and lovely melodies make for a fantastic album. | |

03.14.19 | Loved 3 a lot and agree with your description. | JesperL
03.14.19 | It's such an addicting record. Reminds me a lot of last year's Night Flowers, with more emphasis on the dream pop | Dewinged
03.14.19 | The Day is good yeah. Have you checked Tallies? You might dig it. | JesperL
03.14.19 | Checked Tallies yeah, really liked it at first but I never come back to it anymore, sadly. | Dewinged
03.14.19 | Yeah I really like the opener but then it sort of becomes a bit... uneventful? Still good though. | botb
