Been listening to a lot of Catherine Wheel & My Bloody Valentine this past week. Anyone else a fan of those bands? Have a recommendation for more shoe-gaze?
'loveless' has been in pretty heavy rotation with me, lately.
as for shoegaze as a whole, though, i don't know enough to be helpful.
Perhaps Yo La Tengo? Galaxie 500 / Mercury Rev?
