Shoegaze, coined around 1990, described UK indie bands like Ride, Lush, and Pale Saints inspired by 4AD, My Bloody Valentine, and Sonic Youth. Known for dreamy melodies, heavily effect-driven guitars, and psychedelic production, the term evolved from a slight to a recognized genre influencing many bands worldwide. The lavish 5-disc set Still In A Dream chronicles shoegaze’s evolution—from its UK origins to US and international acts—featuring classics, cult favourites, rarities, and new-to-CD tracks.
