So.. after a couple of weeks of mulling it over in my car, I think that I finally 'get' Loveless.
I'm especially fond of the closing of "Blown a Wish" as well as the first track.
I think I'm just slow on the uptake with this stuff. But I would never have gotten it to it without the help of the oh-so-great Twoism..

That's the great thing about Loveless - it takes a bit of "getting" - I still hear new things in it now despite first buying the album in 1998.ExitEuXa wrote:Well, better late than never.thedisavowed wrote:So.. after a couple of weeks of mulling it over in my car, I think that I finally 'get' Loveless.

Oh, and Derail - right with you up until the "foot job" bit.

I just ordered this and I have a feeling it's gonna be one hell of an album. Just read the review! 
Connectivity! is Mahogany..s second full length record, following the holy grail of US indie shoegazer records The Dream of a Modern Day (Burnt Hair, 1999. Reissued by Darla, 2001), and over a dozen singles & EPs; compiled and released as Memory Column 2CD (Darla, 2005). Mahogany return with Connectivity!, embracing Factory Records' chill, the Cocteau Twins' radiance, and Brian Wilson's optimism. It is the group's most evocative and delicately complex work, employing every instrument, voice, and magic black box within Mahogany's new studio, the Civil Defense. Mahogany's massive, celestial, guitar-driven sound is ultimately unique. Connectivity! is a two disc set featuring three mixes by Cocteau Twins producer, guitarist, Robin Guthrie, the vocal debut of Lucy Belle Guthrie (daughter of Cocteau Twins Robin Guthrie & Elizabeth Frazier), and three mpeg videos.
..People who are into dream pop and classic UK shoegazer rock need to give this band a listen, as they're among the best bands currently doing this stuff... --PITCHFORK
"Over the crisp geometry of drum-machine rhythms and rectilinear vocal melodies, a la Stereolab, guitars and celli shimmer and splash, enriching the structures by blurring them. This is heaven-sent manna." --NEW YORK TIMES
"It's truly admirable how they've managed to come up with an album that sounds so unique and original: A desperately needed wave of fresh air after all the unimaginative retroism that's been dominating the last years." --ULRICH SCHNAUSS

Soulseeking Mahogany now....
Btw Derek... I really like that Manual stuff. I was just revisiting that stuff the other day. Very soothing.

Wow...ummm I guess this goes to show I shouldn't read to much into reviews. I just got "Connectivity!" today and it's not really at all what I expected. It's much to happy and poppy sounding for me, but Beach Boys fans would probably love this album.

loveless is like an everyday thing now. Its one of the best albums ive ever heard. I can understand how boc takes influence from them, just like boc i always hear something new when listening to a song, its so dense and mmm so creamy.

Okay, I've read all 6 damn pages and I'm kinda disappointed to read that no one here has brought up this record:
Starflyer 59 - Gold
They never did anything like it before or since, and it is by far the BEST shoegazer album I own, beating out MBV, Slowdive, Cocteau Twins, everything. Get it before someone else comes along and realizes how uncool you are without it.
Also, these are a bit more on the "pop" end of the shoegazer spectrum, but very very worth seeking out if you like bands like Lush, Autolux, etc...
Love American Style - Undo
Viva Voce - Hooray For Now
AND ALSO
Bowery Electric - Beat
A total classic. Somewhere between shoegaze, ambient, post-rock drones and trip hop, all topped off with occasional female vox. GET IT!!!11

Boris - Farewell. Heavy but gazy.
Posted: Fri Oct 06, 2006 11:01 pm
Honestly I'd have to disagree...Boris have those droned out moments but I wouldn't call them "shoegazery"
Speaking of Boris though, that new collab with Sunn o))) (ALTAR) is fucking immense. Anyone in on the doom scene should seriously get that record. Vinyl comes with a bonus track as well, featuring Boris, Sunn o))) AND Dylan Carlson from EARTH!!!!! OMG!!!!!

It's jsut the first song that I thought was shoegazy. That's just me. I'll check that out too, thanks.
