Playing with new pedal(s) chain. Namely, the Eventide Blackhole + Sunn Life Pedal sounds cool.

Phone mic isn’t great, but thought id share anyway.

Shoegaze bands with tons of low end in their sound?

I'm a bit bored with the harsh guitars and repetitive bands that copy MBV... but i love sludge and doom with a pinch of ambient sounds (The Angelic Process for example), and i'm missing the vibrations of real amps in live scenarios. Any band to blast my speakers with tons of bass?

This is my latest EP, Freon. It has a mix of shoegaze and dark ambient music.

Inspired by the likes of Flying Saucer Attack, lovesliescrushing, and MBV. It’s instrumental music to set a mood, I hope people give it a listen!

Are there any noisey aggressive current Shoegaze bands? (Recommendations)

All the most popular Shoegaze bands people are talking about are very polished and smooth. Frankly a lot of them sound interchangeable. Are there any aggressive Shoegaze bands that really go off? Or does that just fall into some other sub genre?

Does anyone know if Susurrate is still making music?

Fell in love with their Snowstorm EP in 2018 and was wondering if maybe they broke up.

Can’t believe how long I slept on this album

Been loving Swervedriver’s first two albums for years but never took the time to check out this one. I’d say it’s even more of a psychedelic odyssey than either of those, in fact some of these songs remind me a lot of Deerhunter’s first few records which I’ve always been a fan of.

Anyway it’s hella underrated

EHX Little Big Muff or EHX double muff fuzz/overdrive (the discontinued one)?

I saw these 2 second hand cheap fuzz pedals and wanted to check their quality.

I'm probably not buying both.
