shoegaze
does anyone like the shoegaze genre?? ive been really liking japanese shoegaze bands like mass of the fermenting dregs, uchu nekoko, my dead girlfriend, and kinoko teikoku. i do also enjoy my bloody valentine, slowdive, and cocteau twins. if anyone has any recommendations for shoegaze, id love to listen to them!! oh and if you want any song recommendations that would be awesome too ^_^

Re: shoegaze
For American shoegaze, definitely check out Drop Nineteens, specifically the album Delaware.

Re: shoegaze
To elaborate a bit, Cosodorokitsune by Shojoskip is one of my all time favorite albums. Probably leads more into postrock than straight shoegaze but you might like it.Cayman wrote: Sun Jul 13, 2025 10:13 am Oh you're speaking my language. Check out Burrrn, Shojoskip, and Oeil.
Burrrn is more classic Japanese shoegaze. Super crunchy and ethereal.

I would be remiss if I didn't give a shout-out to BDRMM. They've been moving away a bit further from shoegaze each album and leaning heavier into more electronic, dream pop esque soundscapes, but their growth has been consistently excellent. Their 2023 album I Don't Know is a great mix of both of their worlds, but I would massively recommend this year's Microtonic for anyone who enjoyed the latest Slowdive album - lots of similar ethereal electronic waves.
