Morgue is a Sankt Peterburg, Russian one-man-project whose music
could be categorised as meta-shoegaze because this 4-track issue
opens up new perspectives from different points of view. Shoegaze as
an approach has been developed by using techniques already known yet
employed by other genres like ambient, noise, drone, minimalism,
post-punk, melody hooks enriched easy listening. All these techniques
were distilled within indie music to an extent until thereafter we
could speak about it as a new genre. Since the 00s the coil started
to close up because the aforementioned genres of which shoegaze as a
genre was spurred by started to incorporate the genre's own distilled
qualities to the mix. It can be admitted while listening to the
release one can hear the aforementioned process in its beauty. More
profoundly, you actually feel no need to draw the line between indie,
and metal, between pulsating minimalism and distorted guitar and
sublime synth induced ambient (rock), between atmospheric droning and watered-down yet still gritty noise. In a word, is it an example of
abstract shoegaze? Top notch by any means.
