Seeing as it's shoegaze week i've decided to download these...



Les Discrets - Septembre et Ses Dernières Pensées
A really great album. A very nice combination of shoegaze and black metal influences in the vein of Alcest. It sounds really great on a pair of headphones and is just the album i need for these winter months.



Astrobrite - Crush
A nice noisy yet melodic album. Underneath the layers of guitar and distortion there's a real pop sensibility to this band with some nice soft dreamy vocal melodies. It's nothing out of this world but it'll certainly be a grower.



Airiel - The Battle Of Sealand
This album is really great. Despite a couple of filler tracks, when these guys hit their stride especially on 'Thinktank' and 'Stay', they really hit their stride. Their sound is just huge and full of texture, and the guitars towards the end of the last song 'The Big Mash-Up' literally sound like a jet-plane taking off. Nice.
