I Can Tell with Death of Heather - An Interview


Os anos vão se passando e as referências e influências das novas gerações idem. Há tempos atrás, quando o assunto era shoegaze, facilmente era detectável tanto no discurso como sonoramente que o MBV, Slowdive entre outros eram os pais da criança, mas isso tem mudado drasticamente no decorrer dos anos.

A nova geração tem se apegado muito mais a expoentes mais modernos como Beach House, DIIV entre outros quando se toca no ponto influência/referência.

Caso dos tailandeses do Death of Heather. No meio do ano passado os caras soltaram suas primeiras demos, ainda soando de certa maneira crus, mas já com o indicador apontando a direção que tomariam, sendo concretizada plenamente com "I Can Tell", primeiro single oficial dos caras.

Dreampop em sua essência, bem distante do shoegaze noventista, aproximado muito mais com os modernos DIIV e Beach House do que propriamente com a escola Shields de fritações.

É amigos, novos tempos apontam para a desmistificação dos mitos, se isso é bom ou não, aguardaremos os desmembramentos.
