I would never accuse a band of being shoegaze (movement started c. 1987) as well as accusing them of not being influenced by anything after Joy Division (Ian Curtis died c. 1980). Jackson this website isn't big enough for both of us. Comp you for the username rights. Pink slips up.

"You've probably heard shoegaze bands before, some of its sleepiness is actually quite intentional dude." -- Luke Bailey. Oh! I see. So 1995 are intentionally boring. Phew, what a relief. I thought they were trying to be a good band. My mistake.

boring is the same old same old music coming out of nz, i find it refreshing that there is actually a different sound that 1995 is offering other that garbage like popcrap kids of 88 or some mopey shit like goldenhorse.. awesome video/song guys!

Mint! Couldn't take my eyes off it, methinks it was a mash up of cute animals and 2g1c style porn they had to endure

Good stuff. Great vid. Good to see bands doing something different and realizing that low-fi & interesting doesn't have to mean shitty quality. Good job 1995. Leading the Pack

Why is it that haters never have anything constructive to say??
1995 probably bother cos they like making music.
why do you bother writing shit on here? makes you feel better about yourself??

This is sooo bad!
The seriousness of it all is embarrassing.

Jackson isn't shit, 1995 are.
Why do these guys even bother? I actually thought they were a parody band.
Posted by Victoria - anonymous 2 years ago

Agree with Jackson. f**king boring.

This is quite weird, I like it.

And yo Jackson, music didn't stop after anyone died. Peeps saying the same shit to noise pop bands about Kurt... You've probably heard shoegaze bands before, some of its sleepiness is actually quite intentional dude

i think what jackson is trying to say is he is jealous and lonely and wants attention.
choice vid guys!

Wow the haters are fast these days...
I found this video fascinating to watch and almost hypnotic. Interesting characters, a clever but simple idea and a perfect fit for the band's subtle and intentionally subdued sound.

How fitting: A boring video for a boring song from a boring band. These shoegazers make me want to sleep. Music didn't stop when Ian Curtis died.
