i listened to & ranked 100 shoegaze albums/eps!!

yeah... those pink fuzzy guitars were so good that i listened to 100 albums/eps to try to find something like it... here's the albums that i found on the journey!! this video has basically been a year or more in the making (since that's how long i've been down this rabbit hole) so i hope you enjoy this!

and as the video said, THIS IS MY OPINION! you are bound to disagree with me so don't take any of these rankings too seriously. (and i know i have a few hot takes so... :')🙏)
plus i'm probably gonna change my mind about a bunch of these albums right after posting this video.... lol. i just make these videos so i can hear the little music clips

this list has blurbs for almost every album explaining all of my rankings for each album, and my overall opinion on them too, along with song highlights. it'll also be updated as i listen to more albums in this genre so it'll probably have more than 100 albums by the time you see it. if you're nerdy about this like me it should be a cool read :)
(btw sorry, youtube isn't letting me make it a link so you'll have to copy n paste it for now)

and for those who are asking - "where's have a nice life/cocteau twins???": i don't consider these to be shoegaze so they're not included in the ranking, but i have listened to both and enjoy them. (HOLV would probably be in the top 5 if it was on this list)
