About Me

We loves 90's shoegaze, the old days where reverb, tremolo, distortion and noisy effects blended in a landscape of tasty sonicaly breeze horizon; where people who came in every shoegaze gigs, do the headbanger and stagediving ritual on stage, wore flanel or band t-shirts, dr Marteens boots and converse shoes on their feet. Distinguished 90's alt bands amazed every teenager and mature people at that time. we kinda iritates if the shoegaze scene nowadays being interpret as a suicidal lame ass theme or a sanctuary heaven for bunch of deppresiveness geeks wannabe. Sucks really, no offense... Damascus
