Vinyl LP pressing. 2013 debut album from the New York-based Shoegazers. After nearly a decade on the trippy dancefloor of Soundpool, guitarist/drummer/bassist/producer John Cep and singer/bassist Kim Field set off from that New York five-piece and are letting their days of Disco beats slip away into memory with style. Linking up with Tobacco of Black Moth Super Rainbow and live drummers EJ DeCoske and Johnny Lancia, they've teased influences like the French pop of Air and the Shoegaze of Lush and Slowdive out to create a record of dripping dream pop. Here, they've pared down their sound to Kim's airy vocals, reverb-washed drums and a fuzzy, swelling ether of effects-laden guitar and bass. The resulting punch-drunk collection, from the gentle melody of 'Del Rey Mar' to the sluggish and nearly indecipherable drone of 'Light of Day,' is coated in the disquieting patina that Tobacco brings to BMSR, though in this case the mood he creates is more melancholy than sinister. And isn't that just how it feels, that limbo between a real good party and the morning after sickly sweet, a little muzzy and ready, before too long, to do it all again.

I have had the album replaying on my turntable for hours! Dont get the cd! Get it on vinyl! Such beautiful artwork on the record .. And it creats such a haunting scene while the record rotates on the turntable and ignites your home with a beautiful haunting atmosphere! The best part is the stargazer lillies are a LOCAL band ..and i think they are the best thing since slowdive! They are nothing like their original band soundpool! WORLDS BETTER!

Shoegaze in an opium daze.
Breathy vocals, plodding walls of guitar reverb and distortion create some haunting almost disturbing shoegaze. Like Slowdive doing The Cocteau Twins in a opium daze. Taking shoegaze to another level. Great
N**!
ONE OF THE BEST SHOEGAZE ALBUMS OF 2013.
IMO this album is up there with a lot of the classic shoegaze albums from the early 90's. If you're a fan of Slowdive, My Bloody Valentine and Chapterhouse's Whirlpool then pick up this album it's a refreshing new shoegaze record.
