It's Shoegaze week!

Well I don't listen to too much shoegaze, just a few things here and there. But it just so happens that I got into the Swirlies album quite heavily this week, and downloaded My Bloody Valentine's Isn't Anything and am playing it now. So I guess I can finally participate in one of these weekly genre threads while it's still going on.

I still haven't been able to get into Loveless because it just seems too noisy and hurts my ears. This one may not be as good (I don't know) but it's easier to listen to.

I started listening to The Jesus and Mary Chain recently too, but I also felt Psychocandy's production was a bit painful at times. Good album though, it'll get played more soon. Darklands didn't appeal to me as much, but maybe in time.

Perhaps I'm finally getting more into shoegaze.
