WL//WH Weekly Shoegaze / Dreampop / Psychedelic / Indie Tips

• San Antonio, TX post-grunge /noise rock /shoegaze solo project BLINDLACE “Mono” from the 2-track single “Hide me in your wounds”
  

Brand new noisy atmospheric guitar-laden solo project from Texas that toes the line between shoegaze, grunge, noise and alternative rock. The Deftones-tinged and sorely dedicated to his passed away dog, “Mono”, sparks off swirling fuzzy guitar mist and squealing distortions that ebb and flow hypnotically around dark ethereal male vocals wailing lost in dizzying immortal wistfulness.

• Early 2000s London, UK five-piece indie ‘pop noir’ band LUXEMBOURG “45” new single
  

Some UK indie aficionados should remember at the beginning of the 2000s London ‘pop noir’ quintet Luxembourg, even myself I never liked CDs somehow I still own their bloody plastic debut single, the band have just dropped a new tune that spins blazing, nostalgic guitar hooks and evocative strings, around a stunning atmospheric male vocal harmonies falling into dystopian disillusionment and then soaring out with hope and pride for something greater than now. If you are looking for genuine, intense emotions and moving melodies from guitar pop, Luxembourg succeeds in impeccably.

• New York ambient /shoegaze /dream pop trio Isla Invisible “Estranged” from the upcoming “EP2″ 7” on Velvet Blue Music
