Moose 'Suzanne' from the 'Cool Breeze EP' (Hut Recordings, 1991)

Pretty much the archetypal shoegaze track for me - and that's no bad thing. Driving rhythm with scope for fringe-swinging? Check. Guitars spiralling towards a blissed out resolution? Check. Effects pedals set by turn to 'crunchy' then 'woozy'? Check. A certain sensibility somewhere between longing and moping? Check.

Hopelessly under-rewarded for some corking EPs and then a lovely country rock debut that confounded (my) expectations.

Enjoy.
