Soo.. this was interesting. I don't have much experience with shoegaze, and I feel like everytime someone plays it in plug I really don't understand what defines the genre. When I first started listening I was playing it on my iPad, and I was not enjoying it at all. The background ambience in the first 2-3 songs drowned out everything, and it kind of turned me off. It was better when I listened with headphones, and it's not the worst thing, but I still rather it not be there. Overall, I enjoyed the sound even if it was pretty simple and I think I will look more into this genre in the future. Thanks Troll, nice way to kick things off.
