I had know idea what you where talking about, so i googled it...
Sounds awful...




"The British music press—particularly NME and Melody Maker—named this style shoegazing because the musicians in these bands stood relatively still during live performances in a detached, introspective, non-confrontational state, hence the idea that they were gazing at their shoes.

School of Seven Bells and M83 are also nu-gaze/newer shoegaze with electronic tendencies
