IN A SHOEGAZE DAZE: A NIGHT WITH SLOWDIVE AT THE WARFIELD

The shoegaze renaissance is upon us and we can thank Slowdive for that.

Shoegaze is a genre of music popularized in the 1980s and 90s and is characterized by its use of distortion, guitar pedals and muddied vocals. Modern interpretations of shoegaze music could not exist without their experimental and revolutionary predecessor, Slowdive.

Slowdive is to shoegaze what Pixies were to alt-rock – true pioneers. Genre definers.
