SHOEGAZE
Shoegaze is characterized by overwhelming volume, with long, droning riffs, waves of distortion, and cascades of feedback with vocals and melodies disappearing into the wall of guitar sound. It emerged in the UK in the late 1980s among neo-psychedelic groups who usually stood motionless during live performances in a detached, non-confrontational state. The name comes from the heavy use of effects pedals, as the guitarists were often looking down at their banks of effects pedals during concerts.
