In my humble opinion one of the greatest shoegaze bands out there right night, s Slide Away set last year blew my mind. Cannot believe I'll get to see them again in June.

Excellent 90's shoegaze band from Costa Rica - Polyfusión
Really nice band from Costa Rica, who released one album in the late 90s. Definitely on the more post rock side of shoegaze but the first track is so good.
You can download their only album here.

Albums similar to Slowdive’s self-titled?
Slowdive’s self-titled has to be my favorite shoegaze album and really the one that got me into the sound and space of shoegaze at all.
I love its atmospheric, ethereal, and cathartic energy. It’s something of beauty.
What other Shoegaze albums most emanate this sound?

Wonderful. Just released. Goosebumps in a refreshing shoegaze oasis. 'Say It For Yourself' from LA-based Casino Hearts

Hot off the press: A new banger from Canadian band 9Million. It's fast, it's catchy, and you won't be able to resist dancing.
10:01 UTC
Just dropped: Great new single 'Yesterday' from Coma Dream (Las Vegas). Harmonious and heavy, a powerfully uplifting sound!
