My (Slow)Dive Into Shoegaze
by 
Anti 
I've been listening to a shit-ton of shoegaze recently and I decided to list the albums I've dug into for anyone that's interested. There are some everyone-has-heard-of-classics on here, but maybe a few hidden gems for you.
Pinkshinyultrablast's Happy Songs for Happy Zombies would be on this chart if it weren't for the short duration.
Psychocandy by The Jesus and Mary Chain would also be on here if there was no limit on chart size.

Great chart. You know pale saints? If I had a shoegaze chart they'd be number one. Plenty recs here.

Thank you for the rec, I heard Spain has a solid shoegaze scene so it's nice to have an entry point.

I'm on the surface of getting into shoegaze, (been listening to MBV and Slowdive, and 2007/2008 Deerhunter), so I find this chart very useful. Anyway, I could recommend the album "Dynamo" by Soda Stereo. Shoegaze in spanish, you don't wanna miss it. My fav song from it is "Luna Roja"
