As summer fades, September ushers in a shoegaze revival, spotlighting three bands that perfectly capture the transition to autumn. The Stargazer Lilies’ Love Pedals celebrates vibrant psychedelia with a blissfully chaotic sound, while Belgium’s Slow Crush offers heavy shoegaze defined by powerful rhythms and emotional whispers. Lastly, Dutch band Biatlón introduces a dream-pop gem with Weather Diary, reminiscent of The Cure’s more buoyant moments, hinting at more to come in their forthcoming EP.
This evolution in sound suggests a deeper emotional landscape that these bands are navigating. How does the interplay of light and dark in their music reflect the complexities of transitioning seasons in our own lives?
