RIDE

"The term shoegazer is synonymous with My Bloody Valentine, and even more specifically with the album Isn't Anything and their powerful follow-up Loveless. If one had to name the next thing that comes to mind when hearing the word shoegazer it would probably be Slowdive's Souvlaki. The albums Loveless and Souvlaki are usually considered the two-headed monster within the genre. There is, however, a third album, released a full year before Loveless and 3 years before Souvlaki, that arguably holds a claim to the first truly great shoegazer album. Imagine a less abrasive and more laid back Loveless, and you have Ride's Nowhere."

Nowhere (1990)

Moccasin

Moccasin Myspace

'Moccasin, who formed in 2003, are a Denver, Colorado band that mixes melancholy and atmosphere to paint a rather baroque picture. They mix soothing sounds of psychedelic fuzz with depressing tones. (...)
If you want to really feel the music and get totally wrapped up in it, than Moccasin is the band for you. Their sad tones and morose strumming will have you hooked. Make sure you check these guys out.'

Amesoeurs - S/T

Amesoeurs Myspace

'This self-titled album can be described as a mature and ambitious collection of songs honouring the band concept through its complete prism of images and emotions. Due to some internal conflicts and different points of view about the band's future, Amesoeurs splited up with the release of its first effort.'
