I always associate this album with the fall time. I have the distinct memory of discovering this album when I was 14 and listening to it all the way through as I walked through the woods during the fall. Such a perfect and melancholic album.

    Definitely a happy accident! On the subject of shoegaze, if you've never listened to Nocture by Wild Nothing (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2XP1jHPp_kQ), I'd suggest it very heavily. It used to be my go to album when coming up on psychedelics so I may be a bit biased, but it's one of my top albums of all time and one of the few I can consistently listen to all the way through.

      Awesome suggestion, thanks.
      It looks like you know shoegaze pretty well, so you probably already know about Boris, but if not, check them out. They're a Japanese band and aren't strictly shoegaze, but imo they're at their best when they're within range of that genre. Maybe start with Farewell and Spoon.

        Yeah! I have heard of Boris before. I haven't checked them out too much. I think I only listened to Pink and both Heavy Rocks I think they were called? I'll definitely check those two out though.
