I dont need to say Wild Nothing: Nocturne, Or Should?
Beach House you've got covered right? Slowdive...ahmmm.

All WD's are great. Dont forget Pains Of Being Pure At Heart.
A place to bury strangers gets loud tbh.

As a genre, as far as I'm aware, it really hasn't gone in any other directions since the 90s. There's some post-metal I've heard that supposedly incorporates elements of it but imo it's really not shoegaze unless it's jangly distorted guitars and soft vocals.

I've heard and love the bold...if that helps.

I've been appointed by the public. I wasn't given a guidebook.

Oh man, that sucks. Last copy obviously went to frown.

He beat me in that competition by a landslide. What do you expect?

Here are my favorite albums that capture that sound:

Silver by Starflyer 59
A Strangely Isolated Place by Ulrich Schnauss
Nowhere by Ride
Whirlpool by Chapterhouse
Souvenirs d'un autre monde by Alcest
Pale Sketches by Jesu

and I just remembered there's a whole lot of good bands in general mentioned in this thread: http://www.musicbanter.com/rock-meta...-shoegaze.html. I'm not sure if this will satisfy your Creepoid cravings though. I like that Creepoid album but for me many of the songs are either too garage rock or too MBV ripoff.
