The Sound of New England Shoegaze

“The Sound of New England Shoegaze” brings together a dense, fuzz-coated spectrum of sounds from across the region’s underground and indie scenes. The playlist drifts through distorted guitars, emotionally restrained vocals, and thick reverb, tapping into both the genre’s core and its regional offshoots. It kicks off with murky, slowcore-inspired textures from Horse Jumper of Love and makes space for more jagged entries like Ovlov’s “Strokes” and the layered chaos of Swirlies’ “Pancake.”

Lo-fi outliers like Main Era and Crab sit alongside heavier, more immersive tracks from Kindling, Honeywave, and Crystal Canyon, painting a broad picture of the scene’s range. Whether it's the dreamy haze of Bedroom Eyes and speakerhug or the harsher experimental noise of warmachine and Dowsing Rod, this set charts the ways New England artists continue to interpret shoegaze on their own terms. It's a sprawling, feedback-friendly collection informed as much by melancholy as it is by volume.
