Romance and Noise creates an atmosphere of matchless beauty while maintaining a post-punk edge. Drawing inspiration from early shoegaze music as well as moods and textures of the Manchester Factory Records era, Romance and Noise fosters an elegant mix of both the dark and bright sides of sound.

When Car's Ascend is a prog/indie/psychedelic/folk/post-rock band from Downingtown, PA with overwhelmingly good guitars, drums, bass and lyrics that make you think. They compared themselves to built to spill, Modest Mouse, the Flaming Lips, and my bloody valentine. They have an awesome live show.

Arguably the most criminally under-recognized band of their era, the British duo A.R. Kane anticipated virtually all of the key musical breakthroughs of the 1990s a decade before the fact, with the roots of everything from shoegazing to trip-hop to ambient dub -- even those of post-rock -- lying in their dreamy, oceanic sound. Formed in London... [+] Read More

With their initial singles and first album, the band from East Anglia fit snugly with the remainder of bands that the British press eventually labeled as shoegazers, a short-lived... [+] Read More

Originally comprised of vocalist David Baker, vocalist/silver pickup guitarist Jonathan Donahue, guitar shaper/single-exhaust clarinetist Grasshopper (born Sean Mackowiak), rooster-tail bass flutist Suzanne Thorpe,...

Not so much underrated as unheard, Moose grew up in Britain's distortion-heavy shoegazing movement of the early '90s but soon shed the fuzzy wash of their compatriots to embrace a clean, acoustic-based style -- inspired by '60s icons Burt Bacharach and Tim Buckley as well as jangle merchants like the Byrds and R.E.M. -- that still relied on the...

Ultra Vivid Scene is Kurt Ralske like Nine Inch Nails is Trent Reznor. Although Ralske's atmospheric art pop could not sound less like Reznor's thudding industrial disco, the two are not that far apart in terms of aesthetics; Ralske's lyrical obsessions with such gothy standbys as sex, religion, and death make the band's three albums naturals...
