No Filler Music Podcast ·

2022/10/19

John Carpenter is often referred to as the master of horror. His iconic Halloween franchise defined the slasher film formula for decades to come. But for fans of synthwave music (and the use of synth in cinema), we have Carpenter to thank for that as well. His extremely effective use of synths to build atmosphere and heighten tension in his films went on to influence countless synthwave artists and film composers. On this Halloween bonus episode of No Filler, we listen to a couple tracks from his

Rewind: Dark and Dazey - The Music of Cock & Swan

No Filler Music Podcast ·

2022/10/10

Following last week's episode on Bowery Electric, we pull from the No Filler vaults with our episode on Seattle shoegaze group Cock & Swan. They pick up where Bowery left off with a similar blend of shoegaze and downtempo. Johnny Goss and Ola Hungerford have a knack for creating these wonderfully dark & dazey, lusciously lo-fi tunes, often with jerky, slightly odd rhythms.

Shoegaze Rewired: The Music of Bowery Electric

2022/10/03

Bowery Electric became one of the first rock groups to incorporate samplers and laptops into their setup with their 1996 record Beat. The result took the somber, ambient shoegaze sound from their self-titled record and blended it with downtempo and trip-hop beats.

2022/09/19

We're dusting off an episode from August 25th, 2019 for a closer look at the shoegazing dream pop outfit Slowdive. As one of the early pioneers of the genre, Slowdive's melancholy, druggy & spaced-out vibes sound just as fresh and modern today as it did in the early 90s.

2022/09/06

Shortly after Doolittle, bassist Kim Deal needed an outlet to channel her creative energies in ways she wasn't able to under Black Francis' firm grip on the Pixies' songwriting process. So she formed a supergroup called The Breeders, teamed up with producer Steve Albini, and cranked out their debut record Pod in just 10 days. The result is an unapologetically straight-forward indie rock album that feels like an urgent expression of raw emotion and energy from a pent-up songwriter who had a hell of a

Industrial synth-pop? Noise gaze? What exactly is electronic body music? All of these words have been used to describe the musical stylings of HEALTH, a band that refuses to stop screaming at you in every song title. Travis is joined by long-time friend of the pod Nathan Forster to dive into a handful of HEALTH tunes to get to the bottom of the band's unique blend of noise rock and synth-pop.

2022/08/16

Ambient drone metal, dream sludge, bliss metal: it goes by many names, but one has finally stuck. The term is "doomgaze", and it's exactly what it sounds like: the reverb-drenched guitars and soft dreamy vocals of shoegaze played at the heavy, sludge-like pace of doom metal. That sound goes back much further than you might think, but didn't catch on until the mid 2010s with a steady rise in popularity ever since. Join us as we explore the dichotomy of doomgaze with a look back at it's history and

If you're a fan of shoegaze, you know that wall-of-sound when you hear it. Brooklyn-based Spotlights takes that wall-of-sound and cranks up the distortion, infusing the hazy, quiet vocals of dreampop with the heavy sludge of doom metal. Some would call them a doomgaze band, but they prefer the term dreamsludge. We chat about tracks spanning from their first EP to their 2nd full-length, Love & Decay.

Mysterious, Uncontrolled, Free: The Music of Pencey Sloe

No Filler Music Podcast ·

2022/08/01

Doomgaze is exactly what it sounds like: a blend of the slow and sludgy pace of doom metal with the wall-of-sound and ethereal vocals we've come to associate with shoegaze. Pencey Sloe is a French band that appear to have unintentionally stumbled into this label, or as lead singer Diane Pellotieri often puts it, their style is "completely uncontrolled, free, and blind." While the "doom" part of the label certainly applies during the heavier and sludgier moments of their music, what stands out most

As a shoegaze band from Saint Petersburg, Russia, Pinkshinyultrablast describe that isolation from the global music scene as a feature not a bug. That freedom from the judgements and structures of the global scene led them to create a whole new subgenre under the shoegaze umbrella called "thunder pop".

Punched Up Shoegaze: Narrow Head's Grunge Revivalism

No Filler Music Podcast ·

2022/07/11

Over the past decade, there's been a definitive shift happening in the indie-rock scene that leans very heavily toward that iconic 90s rock sound that we all know and love. Whether it be grunge, shoegaze, or any flavor on the wide spectrum of the alt-rock sound, modern bands are taking all of those waypoints in rock and breathing new life into them. And we argue on this episode that no band does it better (or comes anywhere close) than Houston-based alt-rock group Narrow Head. We listen to a few
