Recommend me some dreamy, atmospheric music!
 

Dream pop, shoegaze, whatever.

If you list a band that I've already heard, I will stab you! (just kidding ;))

I've been listening to bands like Slowdive, Cocteau Twins and A.R. Kane lately and would like to expand upon this sort of sound.

Pram.

Chapterhouse
Moose
Ride

I'll try Pram and Moose out thanks.

I'll have to stab you twice demonrail though, sorry! >:]

yeah i found it on soulseek thanks

lovesliescrushing
Bowery Electric
Lush
Seefeel
Flying Saucer Attack
Boo Radleys

can't really go wrong with shoegaze/dreampop

yes yes yes

hawkwind are really spacey but way more hard rocking than any of these other bands.

bowery electric i would suggest as well

Yes you can.T Though I really love shoegaze, I find most of this "neogaze" thingy really boooring.
lovesliescrushing was the first thing that came to mind when I read this thread title as well, you would probably like it Derek

Now I'm just naming Liverpool post-punk bands that my dad knew

Hooooly shit. That's the coolest album cover I've ever seen.

thanks for your recommendations, my soulseek will be backlogged for awhile ;)

You need some Felt in your life.

Derek - Have you heard AR Kane's "69"? That would be right up your street (I uploaded that for a boardie a couple of weeks ago).

Must go listen to "Sadomasochism Is A Must" by them now!

Yeah, I shouldn't have made such a blanket statement because there's many (mostly newer) things that are put under the "shoegaze" banner and are horrible. You can't go wrong with good shoegaze. lovesliescrushing does fit perfectly although I wouldn't call Astrobrite dreamy, at least not the recent stuff.

I've only heard "i" but I'll check it out!

'69' is definitely worth seeking out.

swervedriver
slowdive

dreamy stuff that isnt shoegaze;
