About Shoegazing.co.uk


Welcome to Shoegazing.co.uk, the online archive of everything to do with shoegazing music. Ever since I first heard My Bloody Valentine's Strawberry Wine (which is playing as I type this), I have been a fan of this torpid, effects-driven atmospheric pop music. But for years, there has never really been any kind of online presence for everything, certainly not in one place. This is what this site attempts to achieve, simply to gather as much information together as we possibly can on our favorite bands, and put it all in one place. By doing this, we hope that you can also enjoy some of the greatest music ever made, and perhaps find some new music that you'll love just as much. After much procrastination, this site is now underway, and very much a work in progress - it's success is dependent upon assembling as much great content as we can find. We need your help to do this.

We should also mention that if for any reason, anyone wishes us to remove any material from this site for any reason, drop us a line and we will do so immediately. This is a fan site, assembled for fans, by fans. In respect of potential infringement of copyright proposed by the respective owners of original source material posted on this site, please request the removal of such imagery, which will be deleted willingly and as soon as possible. We realize that pulling together an online archive such as this may cause these issues to arise, but more importantly, we hope that you enjoy what you find here.

Let us know what you think, and enjoy,

Matthew
