Shoegaze Saturdays
Rock
With Mason Daugherty, Brendan Hill
Shoegaze is where minimalism and maximalism snake around at both ends - the walls of sound are immense and all-encompassing, but to such an extreme that everything is painted in different shades of the same color. Effects pedals are used heavily to distort and process the guitar signals, while the slow, subdued, breathy vocals are hidden beneath it all. What is there to hate?
The Jesus and Mary Chain, The Smiths, Siouxsie & The Banshees, Cocteau Twins, The Cure, My Bloody Valentine, Slowdive, Whirr, Ringo Deathstarr, DIIV, Ride, Lush, and Beach House.
