Shoegaze

8. februar 2016

Den måtte jo komme. Boksen med dokumentationen af shoegaze-genren. Og det er den så nu. Still a dream – a story of shoegaze hedder boksen. Problemet er blot, som en anmelder i Pitchfork.com er inden på, at det er en underlig genrebetegnelse, der nærmest forsvinder mellem fingrene på en, når man bruger den. For som genrebetegnelse siger shoegaze mere om musikernes attitude (generte, sky mennesker, der står og kigger ned på deres egne fødder i stedet for ud på publikum) end om musikken. Og så dog alligevel er der nogle træk, der samler alle disse navne.

Den eneste mangel bokssættet har, er at et af hovednavnene – My Bloody Valentine – brillerer ved sit musikalske fravær på CD’erne. Til gengæld er der rigeligt andet at gå i dybden med, hvis man ellers har tid, råd og lyst til shoegaze.
