lately I've been seeing shoegaze get huge popularity again like it did in the mid 2010s but the difference now is that a lot of bands are popping up with the sound but i don't know if they can fully revive the genre and innovate, compete with the 90s bands, so far its not giving what it supposed to but it feels like a lot of the new bands are incorporating new things into the genre that feels fresh, i can also feel the mass support for this revival compared to the 2010s .

Since the revival began at least 2-3+ years ago I would say its contributing positively

Turnstile I think is playing at Coachella and that's cool

Shoegaze is dead

they deserve to they have been working and their best album is from this decade

just say you haven't keep up with genre, its even gaining popularity on tiktok.

Glow on has over 15-30 mill hits on each song on Spotify alone I think

Yeah they're a cool band. Not really heavy enough for me most the time but I'll throw them on and enjoy it when I'm in the mood

They're how I found out about show me the body so I love them for that alone too

this guy doesn't know what he is talking about, the huge following julie has says otherwise, shoegaze is going up

I know, I was just giving the example that helped me learn shoegaze is "so back" lol

yeah they are cute but also not my favorite of this era

im agreeing with u

I like how we just keep agreeing and have nearly bumped this whole thread by a page ourselves

Shoegaze will never die, because someone will always want to make shape sounds.

I'm ready for a revival

other folks will come through and give their thorough opinions

its already happening

PERSONALLY WHEN I THINK OF CONSISTENCY AND INNOVATION FROM THIS ERA, Parannoul COMES TO MIND.

Eh, sure. I only really fw mbv and a few slowdive albums.

The you could've just said you aren't following the genre as much and you prefer the staple bands. Instead of saying its dead.

mbv goated

I'm not real into it all either but it most definitely is on the rise, and in new ways, and I'll always respect that

So good

THIS TIME AROUND THE ASIAN GIRLIES ARE FIGHTING HARD AND BRINGING SOME OF THE BEST MATERIAL FOR THIS REVIVAL.

As long as we get more shoegaze i hope it does. Nothing like getting high and letting that wall of sound wash over you
