Hey all, glad to be joining the community. I've lurked the board for a long time and finally decided to register. In the meantime, I've found this place to be a great resource for info on gear...which has fortunately/unfortunately contributed a great deal to my GAS...

Anyways, I am looking forward to contributing to the community. I can provide witty rejoinders, am a specialist in self-deprecation, and can also make really good blueberry waffles. Hopefully this bodes well for our future, eh comrades?

Hi all!

I'm Jordan, 25, from sunny Buffalo NY. I loooove pretty much all kinds of music, but I've been hardcore into shoegaze (and most weird guitar based stuff) for several years. I'm currently playing guitar in a band that does some dream-pop/shoegaze style songs.

Glad I found this forum, seems really cool.

hey, I'm matt, 17 from Burlington Vermont. I started making music about a year and a half ago, and started out making weird abstract hip hop music (think clouddead, anticon stuff), I've learned how to play drums and keyboard moderately well, but my real fascination lies within sound and tone. I love messing with effects and creating entirely unique sounds which drew me into shoegaze. I love MBV FSA ect and am obsessed with the fuck buttons (not really shoegaze, but so noisy!) I currently don't actually play guitar, never even tried to, but my current musical projects are all about thick layered soundscapes using keyboards, synths, and lots and lots of pedals. While not necessarily shoegaze music, my biggest influences and inspirations come from the genre. and who knows, maybe sometime ill pick up a jazzmaster and see what happens :wink:

Hello all,
Nice to meet you... My name is Lola, 23, and I love music. Like someone once said, without music, life would be an error. I've been slowly getting into shoegaze and, like many I guess, it all started with the Jesus and Mary Chain and My Bloody Valentine. In the meantime I've developed a severe affection for Black Rebel Motorcycle Club and the Brian Jonestown Massacre. They might not exactly be shoegaze bands, but through them I got into the genre more and more. Cocteau Twins, The Besnard Lakes, Spacemen 3, Ride, Slowdive...

Recently I've been following Zaza, the Warlocks, the Black Angels, Black Ryder and recently I saw Dark Horses. Always searching for more and deeper sounds...

Looking forward to this forum

Thanks Sotired,

I'm very excited- already found about 10 new bands that I find interesting...!

And I shall not hesitate to mingle, after I'm done with the self-imposed initiation rite of mere observation

Hi,

It's only polite to introduce myself here...

I'm Rich6by7, and I'm sure you can work out my favourite band based on that. They're not 100% shoegaze I admit, but they had a massive effect on me nevertheless. And their drummer, Chris Davis, is now a full-time member of Spotlight Kid, one of my favourite bands at the moment. Otherwise, I'm well into my Slowdive, Pale Saints, MBV, Asboi Seksu, Ecstasy of Saint Theresa, Chapterhouse, Serena Maneesh, Stellarium, Love Culture, Holy Roman Army, Film School... the list goes on.

Looking forward to coming across new shoegaze bands through this forum!

Hey all,
Long time reader first time poster. I’m 18 and from Canberra, Australia. Loveless was one of the albums I grew up with, my dad would play it nearly every day. Ive always loved MBV but its only been in the last year I’ve broadened my horizons on the shoegaze genre. And I have to say its easily become my favourite genre of music pretty damn quickly.

I love pretty much everything I’ve heard within the genre, but nothing gets me off more than the shoegaze bands at the more intense, distorted end of the spectrum. Well, as long as its loud and assaulting, really. (MBV, Loop, JAMC, Ride, Bailter Space, Fleeting Joys, etc).

I’ve been playing guitar since I was 12 and have been in several bands. But only recently actually had the money to buy good gear to be able to make the music I’ve wanted to. http://www.myspace.com/foucault39swhip here is a demo song me and my friends recorded only 3 days ago. Id appreciate any feedback we could get on the direction it’s taken.

Thanks guys, looking forward to becoming part of the forum.
