When a band is named after one of the best albums of the ’90s, you really do have to check them out. When you do check them out, you find they’ve been heavily inspired by “Be-In”, the first track from the Dandy Warhols second album, and lost classic “The Dandy Warhols Come Down”. You are happy that it turns out in the long run that shoegaze never really died at the hands of Grunge & Britpop, and that so much good music these days is inspired by the long-maligned genre.
Don’t press play if you don’t like shoegaze…you have been warned…
Youngteam are Swedish and are released on Northern Star Records, a label whose “Psychedelica” compilation albums I always buy as they’re released.
Nice. Thanks for that Blimpy. I have bookmarked Northern Star’s website.
I liked that a lot. Thanks mr. blimp.
I loved it, thanks! (Still not totally clear what shoegaze is, exactly.)
Crumbs! If anyone else would like Blimpy’s Rough Guide to Shoegaze to magic into existence, please add your voice!!
Ooo, Ooo, me! I read up on it a bit quite awhile ago, but never really got a handle on what it was, or how to know it when i hear it.
nice track Blimpy, Rough Guide….would be great
Cheers Mr Blimp! Thank you for spreading the good word. Your support is appreciated!
As long as you keep putting out the ace records!! Cheers for dropping by!
