I nearly exploded with happiness. Oh wait, maybe that was the heat. But still. No heat in the world could have stopped me from dancing to that.

mbv's "soon" has a good beat but it's not really dancefloor-danceable (sorta like flipper's "sex bomb", &c).

Is it a different mix from the album? I mean, I would actually say they're slightly better live than on album (well, apart from them not doing the harmonies live, but we've had a word about that, and they promise they'll try) but still, the album is bloody good.

There's a lot of The Church in here as well as the obvious Shoegaze/Krautrock references. This is why I keep thinking you'd like it.
"Simple Solution" wouldn't be out of place on The Blurred Crusade or Remote Luxury.

serious question--does the revival ever end? What's it like in the UK?
Seems like there's a lot more shoegazer/dreampop floating to the surface this year.

Shoegaze "was one of the wimpiest genres" of the 1990s. As opposed to "gangsta rap", I suppose.

sometimes it seems like a lot of the black metal stuff is really just renamed shoegazerz
― Multiple Miggs (dandydonweiner), Tuesday, 3 December 2013 03:07 (ten years ago) link
No joke, I pretty much got into black metal via the stuff where the guitars sounded shoegaze-y to me.

I really dig the new album (never heard the previous one TBH) from The History Of Apple Pie.This is the first video/single from the album and it's also my favorite song, though I like the whole disc:

I wasn't sure what 2014 rolling thread to put this in and I didn't think the band was popular enough to devotre a new thread to so here it is! Hopefully someone likes it...
