can someone show me a NEW shoegaze band

Girl bass player never going out of style either apparently.

not so sure about this second serena maneesh record (and never got into the first one).

the first one was pretty weak imo - there's no 'drain cosmetics' on this record but i think it's better overall

crash city saints album pretty good - quite a bit more lively than your usual MBV ripoffs.. there's bits of curve, raveonettes, early velocity girl etc in there. nothing even remotely original but a lovely listen

nothing even remotely original but a lovely listen

The more original the nu-shoegaze/dreampop band, the less interested I am. It's one of the only genres of rock I can think of that I don't want fucked around with and modernized in any way.

That problem is, that approach is how you end up with bands like Air Formation.

johnny fever you completely baffle me sometimes

I kinda agree with the sentiment- but it has happened and will always happen. See new synth-hop.

New High Violets record is pretty good. Working with Schnauss on that remix album seems to have helped.

Estonia seems to keep putting out a new clutch of good 'gaze types -- thus these folks:

Nother new Engineers album: this one has Ulrich Schnauss's paw prints all over it which could be good or really bad. I'm liking the single/prerelease track, but if its a whole album of that I might be a bit "umm..."

Prids latest album is closer to that dreampoppy Silversun Pickups style (boy/girl harmonies, buzzy guitar washes) than their earlier goth work fwiw.

I like that link, Ned!

Ooh I agree thats quite pretty stuff. I like that theyre singing in Estonian too, it adds to that Liz Fraserish obscurity :)

Not a new band per se but Jefre Cantu-Ledesma of Tarental/the Root Strata label et al has a new album out on Type, Love is a Stream, which is v much shoegaze-inspired -- and which he confirmed just now on Facebook via a comment of mine was partially Lovesliescrushing-inspired, which is always a good sign. You can hear it via Type:

The vimeo link is from Merchandise which is the better of those 2 songs..

here it is again: http://vimeo.com/15648757

That's a band I would've ignored by name, but thanks for posting a video. I rather like it!

Yeah the name is weak, but what can ya do...

xp I dig the Crash City Saints album a lot!

looking fwd to the ringo ds album a lot even if they are just another jamc ripoff

melbourne's three month sunset (who recently changed their name to lowtide, though i don't think they've released anything under the new name yet) put out this lovely (but very heavily in debt to slowdive) EP last year.. it's good

Holy shit. I just found this release:

It really has some beautiful tunes on there. Interested in hearing the newer album.
Someone let me know if they also think this is great.

had a listen to their EP on emusic, sounds nice

Yeah, its a really solid EP. It is always much more fun when you find something you know nothing about, and it turns out to be super good.

Hmm, like the cover.

Three Month Sunset really hit the Slowdive thing on the head, but the songs sound great! I need to hear the full versions now...

Also, Slowdive - Lowtide?

Hmm, like the cover.

I hear some Lilys leaning qualities in most of their material

mentioned it on the indie thread but the new Ringo Deathstarr single 'so high' is ripped straight from Ecstasy & Wine, except perkier. and is all the better for it.

so yeah there's a ringo deathstarr album now and it's quite something

HAAW!

i guess

I find MBV puns to be unavoidable, and I have ended many friendships because of them.

btw that album is great, i just despise the name like no other

electricsound why is it that whenever I search any of my favorite obscure 90s bands one of your posts always pops up?

Ringo Deathstar sounds like a chiptune band name.

I should check these guys oot, that said.

ha, bad habit of mine

RD video on my FB wall trayce

Oh swoit *looks*

Holee shit yr not kidding about the Ecstcy and Wine rip. THis is adorb.

more ecstasy than wine imo

been listening to the new Cut Copy tonight & track #7: 'this is all we've got' is some premium 'gaze.

Cut Copy are gazey now? ... I thought they were more a presets-ish band, I have never given them much of a listen tbh

since the beginning, certain strains of CC have been pretty obviously shoegaze-influenced, but the track I mentioned sounds straight-up like an early Moose song. Most of the other tracks on the album are more blip-bleep, gloop-gorp than that.

heh heh gloop-gorp.

Hey I see this jam has already been mentioned but I wanted to post it here anyway...

heh

i admire the brazenness of it

Yeah those are some balls to steal so shammelessly but they do a damn fine job of it! I love it.

God what is WITH my typing at the moment, geez.
