Crush #215 – RingoDeathstarr Special!

This past weekend we had the opportunity to go to the Ringo Deathstarr concert in Atlanta! We’ve both been huge fans and it was an incredible concert, they are so good live + played all of our favorite songs!! This was my first shoegaze concert, it was incredible seeing the technique and hearing the acoustics (the wall of sound definitely was an experience)… definitely need to go to more and would recommend it to any shoegaze lovers out there 🙂 We even met the band and told them about Crush, and they were super nice!

Crush #206 & #207 – My Bloody Valentine’s Day

Glider (EP) - Wikipedia

tonight we’re here with a romantic and lovely set for our valentine’s day show! we also forgot to make a post last week, which we will include in this post 🙂

this week

molten young lovers – airiel

cupid come – my bloody valentine

romance – plastic girl in closet

rose pedals – vivienne eastwood

love songs on the radio – mojave 3

on our own – the meeting places

masokissed – the pains of being pure at heart

pretty face – soft kill

everlastingly yours – piroshka

language of flowers – pale saints

i love you – the brian jonestown massacre

crazy for you – slowdive

kiss chase – lush

last week – japanese shoegaze deep dive

i really wish we had posted this one last week because we had a really good convo with one of our listeners who tuned in about the differences between european/american shoegaze and japanese!! basically it boils down to, japanese shoegaze has a lot more lyricism and clearer vocals, while also have more harsh guitar textures. I’d definitely reccomend each any every band in our playlist, which u can find here on spotify!
