Re: OMG
I think Shoegaze was over-take by Brit-Pop like Oasis which is more less original. Even Johnny Marr tried to emulate Oasis.

Re: great ShoeGaze albums of all time...
like I said it's a loosely defined genre, but this definetly fits; look how the dude just stares at his shoes. Great song by the way.

Re: great ShoeGaze albums of all time...
I sort of grew up with Spooky and Gala, but I'm just now listening to Pale Saints for the first time. Gotta tell you that it sounds like. . .er. . .Lush. Same jingle-jangle lead guitar. Don't get me wrong. . .it's all good. I'll love the album.

Re: great ShoeGaze albums of all time...
I'm suprised you didn't hear them back in 92 when In Ribbons came out. They played them on 120 Minutes; one of the greatest shows of all-time. The bass player left and the chick that sings Blue Flower continued w/ one more LP which was quite a bit poppier and not as dark. I traded for a bootleg VHS of one of their shows; they come off a lot more rock band live, but it was still ok. I was really suprised to discover the bass player/singer was a male b/c his voice sounds like a female; really an androgynous band as the singer had short hair-cut. I'll have to do some research and do a "Where are they now" post :)

Re: great ShoeGaze albums of all time...
side note on Lush - geez, there drummer was flat out sick; I them 3 times and each time was more and more amazed out how good he was. Only a few alt rock drummers in his class; others being Fugazi drummer and Sundays drummer.
