Recensie
• EPIC 4CD SET CHARTING THE STORY OF THE SHOEGAZE MOVEMENT - FROM THE UK UNDERGROUND TO INTERNATIONAL PHENOMENON.
• FEATURING SLOWDIVE, CHAPTERHOUSE, RIDE, LUSH, CURVE, ULTRA VIVID SCENE, CRANES, BRIAN JONESTOWN MASSACRE, COCTEAU TWINS, ALISON’S HALO, ASOBI SEKSU, TELEVISE, A PLACE TO BURY STRANGERS, RINGO DEATHSTARR, PINKSHINYULTRABLAST, TAMARYN AND MORE.
• INCLUDING SCENE FIGUREHEADS, HOUSEHOLD NAMES, HIDDEN GEMS, RARITIES AND MORE!
• FROM THE TEAM WHO BROUGHT YOU THE CRITICALLY ACCLAIMED COMPILATIONS ‘CHERRY STARS COLLIDE’, ‘NO SONGS TOMORROW’ AND ‘STILL IN A DREAM’.
Emerging out of the late 1980s musical landscape in the UK, the scene that came to be known as “shoegaze” has endured across the globe and reached far beyond its initial British impact.
Showcasing 20 years of the scene’s development, this ambitious 4CD set charts that extraordinary evolution. Thoughtfully curated and packed with major names from across that period, ‘We Are The Beautiful’ takes us on a trans-Atlantic journey awash with blissful melodies, wall-of-sound sonics and ice cool aesthetics.
Complete with insightful essay and band-by-band biographies from Frank Deserto, ‘We Are The Beautiful’ serves as a perfect introduction to the scene for the uninitiated and a must-hear overview for those in the know.
