sooooo i decided to try my hand at something i'd never done before - shoegaze. i took a lot of influence from my bloody valentine and the deftones, and put together two tracks (actually 3 but i don't like the last enough to share it).

btw if you've never heard of this stuff before, it's basically droning guitars, and a strong 'wall of sound'. expect more reverb than you ever wanted to hear, and amorphous guitar chords which are nearly impossible to make out. also it's very slow and dreamy. :)

first track:
kinda post-rock-esque, and less drone-y than the other. also has some lead guitar work, and the melodies are more pronounced than the 2nd track. still very dreamy, tho.

second track:
much simpler, there's no lead guitar like in the other. the drums are more sparse, and i turned my bridge pickup on for this one, so there's lots of extra bass frequencies.

i am very happy with both of these tracks, but i'd like some outside opinions. thanks for listening. :kiss:
