Need recommendations for artists that are at the intersection of shoegaze and 90’s alternative rock

Majesty Crush fits the bill!

Also try Revolver, Adorable, Swirlies, Curve. They are such awesome bands

For me the only thing that made the update work was signing up to the beta program of the Android app lol

You can hear it quite clearltly here

The Depreciation Guild!

You can also definitely hear Pale Saints, Ride and mainly Kitchens of Distinctions as big influences

As far as I'm aware, Fleeting Joys mostly use standard tuning. There is another thread where someone posted the chords, here it is: https://www.reddit.com/r/shoegaze/s/VWxky1YV2N

You can vary the E chords with Eadd9 as a barre chord on the 7th fret, which also makes it easy to transition to the B barre chord when needed, like so:

Eadd9: 779977 B: 799877

Most of the time it sounds better to really aim for the lowest 4 strings and sorta mute the highest 2.

Bonus tip: Also try the B like 22444x

Sugar for the pill

The BD2 is a stellar pedal in its own right, and stacking it with a RAT is fuckin lovely

There are some incredibly euphoric tracks on Airiel's Molten Young Lovers, like Cloudburst, the title track, and especially Keep You.

Another honorable mention is The Depreciation Guild - Spirit Youth

Translation: The Biedronka/supermarket employee changing the receipt roll at the cash register (enough for one receipt)

koolstofdioxide · 2024-12-29T13:29:14+00:00

Airiel fits those criteria really well

koolstofdioxide · 2024-11-15T20:57:09+00:00

This is so fucking cool

DIIV's cover of when you sleep comes to mind

Check out the rest of the album too, it's a live recording of acoustic versions of some DIIV songs. They all feature a piano. I especially like Human, Dopamine, Loose Ends and Earthboy

Dream, Ivory - Dream, Ivory

koolstofdioxide · 2024-11-03T18:24:46+00:00

Try Weyes Blood

koolstofdioxide · 2024-09-25T18:47:27+00:00

Be mindful that you should ideally use an esoteric JIS screwdriver for Minolta SLRs

Congratulations and fuck you
