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

• San Jose, Costa Rica alternative rock/dream pop/shoegaze 4-piece Adiós Cometa “Norte” second single
  

Second single from Costa Rican combo evokes as usual deep intense emotions, ready to ooze deeply sad and nostalgic moods into a sparkling soar and fall of bleeding and whining guitar melodies, along with steadily pulsing rhythms, around heartfelt, sentimental male vocals releasing resonant sorrow into the fading strains of a melancholic love.

• Melbourne, Australia shoegaze/dream pop/indie pop 4-piece GRAZER “How Many Times” new single
  

New delicious soothing and gently enveloping new single from Melbourne art dream poppers blends sinuously smooth, throbbing bassline and brittle, twinkling guitar melodies to radiate hazy, nostalgic and bittersweet moods over distant detached, layered vocals that rise, fall, and echo in astonishment and bliss.

• Oklahoma City‘s dream pop/surf/psych/indie/synth pop duo HUSBANDS “Garth” new single
  

Oklahoma City duet delivers a bittersweet and emotional synth-infused pop ‘delicatessen’ through tongue and cheek male expressions that layer vocal personalities from young, naïve observations to motherly embarrassments, while stuttering rhythms, airy synth swells and brittle prickling guitar melodies carve a nostalgic and sentimental journey down the main drag of small-town America, or in this case Yukon, Oklahoma’s “Garth Brooks BLVD.”
