Sobre Shoegaze
O shoegaze surgiu no Reino Unido no final dos anos 1980 e recebeu seu nome por uma razão visual: os guitarristas ficavam parados no palco, olhando para os pés, manipulando pedais de efeito. Em vez de showmanship, havia imersão sonora total.
My Bloody Valentine definiram o gênero com Loveless (1991), um dos discos mais caros e demorados da história britânica: Kevin Shields levou anos aperfeiçoando o som, gastou o orçamento de uma gravadora inteira e criou algo que engenheiros de som ainda não conseguem explicar completamente. As guitarras de Loveless soam como nuvens, como névoa, como algo físico mas etéreo.
Slowdive e Ride representavam o lado mais melódico e menos extremo do shoegaze: onde MBV era denso e desorientante, Slowdive era contemplativo e belo, com harmonias etéreas de Rachel Goswell e Neil Halstead sobre camadas de reverb. Souvlaki (1993) é um dos discos mais adorados do gênero.
O shoegaze morreu como movimento em meados dos anos 1990 quando a mídia britânica declarou o britpop seu sucessor, mas nunca desapareceu de fato. A cena americana "slowcore" com Codeine e Low tinha afinidades com ele; o dream pop californiano também. Nos anos 2000 e 2010, houve um revival explícito com bandas como Beach House, Deerhunter e No Age. E Slowdive e MBV voltaram a gravar — os novos álbuns são tão bons quanto os originais.
