Shoegaze


Triggered by bands like the Chameleons, The Cocteau Twins, and most of all the Jesus and Mary Chain, the Shoegaze movement of late 1980's and early 90's merged noise rock with pop music. Led by My Bloody Valentine, shoegazers created huge wave-like sounds with their guitars and laid them over breathy vocals and heavy drums. Grab a spot next to your favorite ocean side cliff and listen to the crashing waves of shoegazers tomorrow on the Friday Focus.

As always you can tune in to Real College Radio, Radio K at 770 AM/106.5/100.7 FM or www.radiok.org to hear more poorly crated metaphors and some of the best music around.



Playlist
