Shoegazey pop out of Brooklyn, brings 4AD to mind. Equal parts MBV, Depeche Mode, The Cure, Smiths (jangly guitars more than anything else), and I bet they wouldn't sound like this if Genesis never existed. A little pretentious (they call themselves nouveau wave, check out their press photos, etc.), if that still bothers you as a college radio DJ. Male vox slow, falsetto, echoed across the board. Most songs sound pretty similar to one another. No FCCs detected
