when will this shit end? vivian girls, wavves, no age, etc...it's like every single band has to sound like they recorded an album under water on a broken fender jaguar. we get it. loveless was a great album. move on. and now i'm reading about some new genre called "glo fi". wtf. please stop hopping on bandwagons.

it's not even a genre, it's a trend. hide your lack of ambition and talent in bad production and two chord fuzz pop. i hate lo fi for the sake of being lo fi, which is what basically every indie band seems to do now.

Zaphod, I think I found out why you don't like the music you listen to.

I quite liked "Nouns" from last year (was that last year or early this year?)

And "Here We Go Magic" is a wonderful record.

 

 

But really I don't get it Zaphod..do you like Beck?

it's not about being "lo-fi for the sake of being lo-fi" (at least not in the case of 'nu-gaze'), though the underwater comment was pretty close. it's just new psychedelic music really. i'm sure there are more music genres out there that are more irritating to people who don't like them. i dunno, i'm gonna defend it to death because i myself write shoegazey stuff. and for me it's about making music with nice melodies but drenching everything in noise, reverb and tape delay.
