5 CD “If Nancy Sinatra had Einsturzende Neubauten as a backing band, that’s how we wanted to sound.” Jim Reid, The Jesus & Mary Chain “Ride were a fantastic band – one of my favourites of all time.” Robert Smith, The Cure “Those first three Slowdive EPs defined that era for me. Absolutely beautiful.” Ivo Watts-Russell, 4AD Records “Swervedriver were my favourite because they just sounded in a Mary Chain way like this American rock band.” Toni Halliday, Curve “Emma from Lush had a really unusual, original songwriting style.” Kevin Shields, My Bloody Valentine Quotes from Beautiful Noise, a film documentary about the ‘Shoegaze’ era. “Shoegaze” was a term invented circa 1990 to describe a new breed on UK Indie guitar bands inspired by the likes of 4AD Records, My Bloody Valentine and US acts like Sonic Youth. • Bands like Ride, Moose, Lush, Pale Saints and The Telescopes married dreamy, off-kilter melodies, skewed, heavily effects-laden guitar riffs and psychedelic production values. • Although “Shoegaze” was initially a somewhat derogatory term to pigeonhole a clutch of new acts, the term quickly evolved to become an accepted genre of music which has influenced successive generations of bands, especially those outside of the UK. • Housed in a lavish ‘book’ set, STILL IN A DREAM pays tribute to that seminal period with numerous classics, cult favourites, rarities and tracks new to CD. • Across five discs, the evolution of the sound labelled as “Shoegaze” is charted from the bands who inspired it on Disc 1 to many of the US and other non-UK acts on Disc 5. • Awash with rare memorabilia, 12,000 words of sleeve-notes from journalist Neil Taylor and band biographies, STILL IN A DREAM is the ultimate tribute to what was also called ‘The Scene That Celebrated Itself’!
