Lesser just means I have smaller hands. It's better for helping with necklace clasps and junk.Dr. Medulla wrote: ↑30 Aug 2017, 1:29pmLesser sounds bad, but ruling the night sounds good. Not the worst of scenarios.

Re: The Shoegazing Thread
Watched this doc over breakfast this morning. Great music, of course, and it covers the key artists that developed the genre, but I can't say there's a real point to the piece other than to say that this was a thing that existed and who was part of it. It's archival rather than historical. So, meh. Plus, why was Billy Corgan there to opine on every band? Having him praise a given band made me like them a little less.

Re: The Shoegazing Thread
Wasn't "beautiful noise" the American name for gaze? Bands like For Against, etc? I thought the name of this doc was weird, considering that. I've never seen it, but since Corgan's in it, I think I'll pass.Dr. Medulla wrote: ↑04 Sep 2017, 7:28am

Re: The Shoegazing Thread
I've never heard the term used as a genre, but could be. That I recall, the only non-UK band featured (and very briefly) was Medicine, from L.A.

Interesting. Shoegaze describes the musicians, but beautiful noise describes the music or effect on listeners.Kory wrote: ↑05 Sep 2017, 2:48pmI got that from this short Allmusic write-up of Alison's Halo: http://www.allmusic.com/album/eyedazzle ... 0000566691Dr. Medulla wrote: ↑05 Sep 2017, 2:37pmI've never heard the term used as a genre, but could be.
