Yes Airiel are definitely one of the better shoegaze bands of the last 10 years. Their album The Battle Of Sealand is pretty good although it is a bit patchy in places. The opening track though is brilliant.
I'm more into their Winks & Kisses EPs, especially Frosted and Melted. I prefer the sound on those EPs as they're a lot dreamier-sounding and more engaging. This song is fantastic:
They're supposed to be releasing a new EP sometime soon but nothing seems to be appearing yet.
