Alison
1993 · Creation
Ranked No. 3 in Shoegaze
Savaged on release and now the genre's most beloved song. The guitars shimmer rather than roar, and the melody underneath survives every layer piled on it.

Souvlaki Space Station
1993 · Creation
Ranked No. 7 in Shoegaze
Dub techniques applied to guitar music, with Eno's fingerprints somewhere in the background. The most spatially adventurous thing anyone in the scene attempted.
Alison
1993 · Creation
Picked by The Waxonia Desk — The Hundred
Shoegaze with the songwriting left in. Everything blurred except the melody, which is why this one survived the backlash that buried the rest.
