Psychocandy: Gauzy Goodness

For all the Shoegaze lovers out there - and apparently you’re a sizeable contingency of our audience - here are three albums that are, at most, a stone’s throw from stuff featured in the My Blood Valentine and Shoegaze Decile episodes. Scottish alt-rockers The Jesus and Mary Chain debuted with Psychocandy in 1985 to massive and continued acclaim. All shiny melodies drenched in feedback, Psychocandy casts a long shadow of influence. Matt offers the similarly foundational Cocteau Twins and their 1990 album Heaven of Las Vegas and the David Lynch-approved 2012 effort from The Chromatics, Kill for Love.
