He sent me this because I have no shoegaze in my library. From what I heard about the genre, I didn't quite expect such noisy guitars. My first listen through the album I didn't know what to think of it. This was mostly because I was listening through my crappy laptop speaker. In particular, I thought the album opener was really weak. I caught myself thinking "Oh boy, what have I got myself into?" The second listen I put headphones on and the overall experience was much better. With the headphones I could catch all the little nuances whereas with the speaker all I got was noise. I read a bit into this band and it said Medicine was the American answer to My Bloody Valentine. If they're as good as this album, I will be looking into it.
