About Me

ALBUM OF THE WEEK THE SECRET GARDEN Vol 1 Nu-gaze: The New Wave of Shoegaze Worth buying for the five and a bit minutes of 93MillionMilesFromTheSun’s ‘Take Me Away’ that’s a reminder of Slowdive at their celestial, dreamy peak. That means it’s really, really ace. They may be a long way from the sun, but they’re not that far from heaven.

The My Bloody Valentine presence lies heavily across these tracks, unashamedly dream pop in origin, but few have pulled this off so convincingly, or with as much panache. The supposed existence of a shoegaze revival would seem to bode well for these two effects junkies from Doncaster, and if the tracks from the myspace page are anything to go by, they should be pretty intense live, the kind of band that makes you hear colours and taste sounds before waking up in a field, wondering what the hell happened to you the night before. Melodically speaking, if you can hear the melodies, there are even vague hints of bands such as the Stone Roses and Ride, proving that it's not all guitar wash, and that there's a real sense of songwriting underpinning the whole operation.
