Any albums like this for my friend, lads? I gave him Souvlaki and he said "that's not what I loved about Loveless". He loved how it was so calm and melodic while still being so noisy. He's a hip-hop head, and he said it's the first album he has ever liked at first listen.
Any recs with calm atmosphere but still noise like pic related?

your friend is right, MBV and slowdive are nothing alike. i never understood that comparison.

woah another bailterspace fan!!! man i havent met anyone who knew who they were before i showed them. desu i prefer vortura, even though its perhaps less "shoegazey".
November 19, 2017 - 22:14
Yeah great band. Vortura is probably my fav too, along with Wammo, but Robot World is more dense and textural. Has that shoegaze vibe. Vortura is much more aggressive and raw.

A lot of the Japanese shoegaze bands are heavily influenced by Loveless. There's a Jap shoegaze YouTube channel so you can research there.

Spiritualized - Ladies and gentlemen(...) maybe. Perhaps not as noisy but I like it better than Souvlaki and I really love Loveless.
