Description
Release Date: 04/22/96
Veils of gorgeous guitar wash and angelic gossamery voice sculpted, manipulated and processed into beautiful noise.
A classic mid-90s release in the shoegazer genre.
A beautiful wrestling of ethereal noise, Lovesliescrushing emerged in the early 90s as Americaâs answer to Britainâs My Bloody Valentine and the nascent shoegazer scene. LLCâs first two Projekt releases of captivating low-fi sonic atmospheres invoked a tangled palette of noisy guitar textures, frenzied distortion and longing ethereal vocals. From milky softness to a blasting metallic roar, instrumentalist Scott Cortez took the shoegaze genre to its furthest regions, far removed from song-structured pop. On these two albums, Lovesliescrushing originated a sound still reckoned with today.
Veils of gorgeous guitar wash and angelic gossamery voice. Beautiful and grandiose orchestral subtlety and childlike naivete, billowy, fur-lined, milky softness to a blasting metallic roar. 75 minutes of spacey drumless iridescent textures and atmospheric soundscapes. Melissaâs vocals are glassy shimmering and evanescent like snowflakes melting in your hand. Scottâs infamous guitar damage conjures images of an auroraâs phantasmagoric majesty or a jet engineâs intensity. Guitar and voices sculpted, manipulated and processed into beautiful noise. Another gem of lo-fi brilliance gleaned from a 4-track.
