See, to me, Deafheaven is nowhere near what i want when i think "Doomgaze" but i get why it's there. Jesu is approaching what i want. Where can i get Yob covering Only Shallow and Aruca?
Astrobrite. Scott has been keeping things rolling lately, including a regular live unit for some small touring.
OH, and totally Cherrywave. They are rock solid, and I'm not just saying that because the dude is an ILF fuzz bro.

And, I agree on Astrobrite. One of my all time favourite projects. Scott did this recently, it's like a much darker, even noisier version of Astrobrite. It rules pretty hard. https://valesound.bandcamp.com/album/distortion-hymns

Fuck, I didn't even know about that. I try to follow every Scott Cortez-related social feed I can find and that bugger slipped right by. Pretty rad stuff.

Bunch of good recs in the thread. I stopped keeping up with things a couple years ago, so my current is not quite current...
One the topic of nospaces: lovesliescrushing. They've been around since the 90s, so not sure if they count as current?

Tears Run Rings (Matthew is a swell guy, and runs Shelflife records, who put out Flyying Colours, plus a lot of other good shit, so brownie points)

Asobi Seksu. Yeah, the broke up a couple years ago, but Slowdive asked them to open for their Boston show, so yeah.

I think Ceremony (the good one) is still active?

I can't believe I didn't bring this band up sooner....
Amusement Parks On Fire - Their "Road Eyes" album quickly moved up into my top 5 of all time.
