Although its meager popularity came and went long before I was aware of it, shoegaze / dream pop music is a fantastic listen. I don’t know who any* of the bands are/were, or what songs were ‘the best’ so it’s all just one big lovely cloud of perfume.
*I’m well aware of My Bloody Valentine and The Jesus & Mary Chain, but I’m talking about any other bands.
Seriously, just search YouTube for “dream pop” or “shoegaze” and pick a video at random. As genres, almost any track will make you think of walking through some sort of field full of little yellow flowers and holding hands with someone a little too young or too sweet, but that’s fine because it’s all some weird opium dream and you’ll wake up eventually.
