Top 50 Shoegaze Albums

Big list in the making. Voted by 3 seperate forums, 54 total lists issued, and over 200 nominated albums. Go see the final 50 results here and then (register if you need to) go here for downloads of almost every album as well as descriptions of each.

"Shoegaze = Cure's Disintegration, Cocteau Twin's Treasure, and JAMC's Psychocandy, put it into a sonic blender, and voila!"

Best Downtempo / Chillout Albums


After your done listening to all that Industrial music (see post below) you'll want something relaxing. Here's my list of the Top Downtempo / Chillout Albums.

Top Industrial Songs and Singles


Well I made another two lists (as I often do). This time reflecting on Industrial and EBM music during the late 80's and early 90's. I'm including them here. Add your two cents if you think I missed any vital songs.
