Josh, perk up your ears: I recently discovered a young British band Wolf Alice - saw them play two songs on a recent "Later... with Jools Holland and was completely blown away. They're bringing back shoegazing music in a fresh and exciting way while showing that they really "get" what made that music so great in the first lace - I'm constantly hearing little references to Ride, Lush, even the Chanberries, but they have their own sound. And hooks for days and days! These kids know how to freakin' write a great song!!! Just love it! Here are a couple of videos (the two directed videos are hilarious!): —Ivan |

Listening now! Thanks for the heads up Ivan EDIT: I really really like Bros, Moaning Lisa, and Giant Peach. Thanks for the suggestions Ivan! I will dive deeper into their catalog for sure. Good looking out, brotha Last edited: Dec 10, 2015 13:21:48 |

Thanks very much for the sourcing on that. No biggie 'cause I have it on the CD previously mentioned but find it odd no 'Perestroika' live. As a song I personally think it should stand with things like 'Apache' - just gorgeous. —Wes DISCLAIMER: The above is opinion/suggestion only & should not be used for mission planning/navigation, tweaking of instruments, beverage selection, or wardrobe choices. |

I wonder if I can interest my pop-addicted daughter in them. The cool Catholic kids next door who go to the arts high school probably already like them. Got to get my kid off Taylor Swiftiness. I like the way they are so photogenic yet unaffected. Live video shows them to be really about their music. The shoegaze pose is a good one that allows for artistic integrity within a soft formula. I just can;t see any American band with popular potential doing anything as natural-seeming as this band. ...and I can't believe I just missed their 2nd Chicago show this week. —Last edited: Dec 11, 2015 00:10:26 |

Great, Josh, thanks, and I completely agree! Though, it's possible it's just our age showing. Wolf Alice are definitely a throwback to classic alternative music, though their songs are so damn great and they are so genuine about it (and so good at it), it's definitely not just a retro act. (And, as I wrote on FB, the guitarist even uses a white Jag!!! Can it get more up your alley?? ;) ) JOBeast and SoS, very glad you enjoyed Wolf Alice, too. I watched some more of their YouTube videos yesterday, and these two really made an impression: —Ivan |

I'm pretty self critical, so I considered that I'm just a grumpy old man that doesn't like new music. But no. The crap I hear on KROQ (the "world famous" alternative station) is absolutely god awful. I may indeed be old and grumpy, but there's no excuse for the garbage I'm hearing these days! The more I watch these kids, the more in awe I am of their poise and polish. They look so young, but they have great talent and seem to be very mature about it without losing their sense of humor. When I was mid 20s, I would've had my head even farther up my own butt if I had any music talent, let alone success. And you're right. They harken back to the old days, but still come off as new and exciting. A proper blend of the best of both worlds, I guess. And yes!!! Go Fender offsets!!! |

I had to google shoegazing music to see what you guys were talking about. I learned something today. |
