I came across this quite charming article at the LRB about trans shoegaze artists:

For those who want to investigate further, it looks like all the bands listed in the article are available on Bandcamp.

Remember shoegaze? If you’re under forty you won’t, though you might have come across it later. It’s the rock...

While we're on the subject of media, I took advantage of the recent Bandcamp Friday to buy the excellent EP "Still Dreaming, Still Deafening" from Yuragi as I'm somewhat obsessed by the second track 'Horizon'.

@ancient_catbus they elevated the genre for me! they've been playing loads of gigs, going on the road, and bringing some nice other bands along for the ride. I've especially enjoyed Sad Planet - the singer has a great voice, and is good at between song talking while the others tinker with their guitars. https://sadplanetdream.bandcamp.com/track/four-days #ShoegazeSaturday #shoegaze

and although their scene leans to heavier fare, Japan will not be ignored on the dreampop front

if Deary is 'the greatest dreampop band since Cocteau Twins' (they are) then Softlightsymphony is The American Cocteau Twins, mining a similar vein but with their own bigger, more muscular sound

unexpected event the last couple of years- the Dreampop Comeback. It's never been my thing (other than Cocteau Twins) bc I listen, it sounds nice, and then my mind wanders off.
But a new generation spearheaded by Deary is making dreampop with enough edge to elevate the entire genre

It’s been a fun run, but I’m going to retire from #ShoegazeSaturday. I can’t help myself: I’ll still post about #Shoegaze, just not on a schedule.

Temple of Angels float somewhere between The Sundays and Cocteau Twins, and “Cerise Dream” aligns more strongly to the latter. Bre Morrell has a voice from another world. 💜#Shoegaze
