theBoneyKing
02.22.24 | 90s essentials:
Swirlies - They Spent Their Wild Youthful Days in the Glittering World of the Salons (on the noisy side)
Lush - Spooky (on the dreamy side)
Catherine Wheel - Chrome (on the alt rock side)
The Verve - Verve EP & A Storm in Heaven (on the psych/space rock side)
Bonus:
Lovesliescrushing - Bloweyelashwish (ambient gaze)
Here - Swirl (not an essential by any means but a really great straightforward and overlooked 90s gaze album)
Difference Engine - Breadmaker (same as above)
Modern stuff:
Wednesday - Twin Plagues (best band of the decade so far)
Greet Death - New Hell (best of the modern "heavy" gaze bands imo, though they are not as heavy as some)
Parannoul - After the Magic (best of the current emo-gaze scene) |
Rowhaus
02.22.24 | Thanks for the recs guys. I added a bunch to make them easier to find. It's interesting how much overlap there is with other genres like drone, grunge, alt-rock, black metal, dream pop, etc.. That's definitely why certain bands don't do it for me as much. I'm drawn to bands that seamlessly integrate the vocals with the fuzz. I can't get enough of that cohesive, dreamy, fuzzy sound. |
