New(ish) Shoegaze(ish)

[Smokeandsteam]

The new album from American band, Blushing, is excellent. Some of their stuff is ‘post-shoegaze’ as they nudge the sound forward. Some of it - like this - is MBV/Lush influenced

New album ‘The Tallest Room’ from Leeds band, Van Houten is an absolute banger. They seem to have been around for a while, lots of line up changes and sounds, but they’ve nailed it with this.

New album from Korean recluse Parannoul, and it's completely free:

Just listening to the new Belong album.... was a huge fan of their first previous albums in the early to mid 2000s. This is their first album since 2011 and is sounding pretty great. It's not straight shoegaze throughout but the shoegazing element is strong enough to warrant posting here....

I've got that on at the moment, and I like it.

Do you really think it's not truly shoegaze? It sounds like MBV to me, with the vocals a lot more buried.

I was getting big Seefeel vibes?

Anyone listening to the DIIV album? I missed it when it came out but checked it today and it's very good...

Slightly strange, slightly shoegaze concept album from a Argentinian and a Canadian, where the sountrack to Minecraft is interpreted in an emo-style. Not a bad listen.

Been listening to this too. I like it.

Went to see Hotline TNT in Brighton on Tuesday. Fucking great it was too... Album came out last year so counts as new(ish) and is really top drawer...

It’s an absolute banger of an album. So, so good

New album from Hello Mary out today. A very young three piece from Brooklyn. Saw them at End of the Road and they ruled. Enough shoegaze in there to warrant posting here - though a bit grungier and noisier at times. Album sounding really tasty...

This is pretty good:

rocket rules, who I think are a couple from Melbourne:



And the Churchhill Garden, from Switzerland:

They've been around ages, but I've just discovered Hammock, and their new album. Very much at the orchestral, semi-ambient end of the shoegaze spectrum, the record isn't perfect, but it is a very interesting listen.

It's not really new, but a remastering of a 1999 record. I'd not heard it until today, but this one from lowsunday is well worth your time:
