dear blog,
for those hipper than i am, obscure private press psych-folk albums from the 70s are the next big thing. i'm a relative (read: complete) neophyte here, but i'm digging "Red Hash" by Gary Higgins, an album that was apparently recorded on the eve of a prison stay for drug charges. The closest comparison i can make is with early Tim Buckley. also, can anybody think of any bad shoegaze albums? it doesn't count if it's a non-shoegaze album by a shoegaze band, eg. "This is Your Bloody Valentine."

I have to say for something shoegaz-y, I'm really not into Asobi Seksu's Citris. They were great live, but I just can't feel the record at all.
based on lack of originality, or simply not good on anyone's terms? i was thinking about classic shoegaze, not revival stuff, BUTTTT i will concede that a not so good shoegaze album has been thought of. sort of.
