Zoon – Happy Thought School
Anishinaabe musician Daniel Monkman follows two records of hazy moccasin-gaze with a more ambitious exploration of adolescent trauma.
Shoegaze
Prism Shores – Softest Attack
Montreal janglers Prism Shores make their bold leap into the indie pop major leagues with Softest Attack.
Nothing – A Short History of Decay
With their first new release since 2020, the Philly shoegazers are returning to a scene that has exploded in their absence. But is there still a place for Nothing’s heavy take on the genre?
Whitelands – Sunlight Echoes
The London shoegazers return with a cleaner sound on their second album for Sonic Cathedral.
Lush – Gala (35th Anniversary Edition)
Gala compiles Lush’s early material—a mini-album and two EPs—and highlights a remarkable period of growth for the dream pop / shoegaze band.

Rat Saw God was No Ripcord’s favourite album of 2023. Can Wednesday’s follow-up solidify their place in indie rock’s top tier?
Feeble Little Horse – Girl With Fish
Feeble Little Horse find their stride on their second album.
