Choon of the Month: Long Holiday


Original video located here. Accessed 26th September 2016

Song title: Long Holiday

Artist: Flyying Colours

Year: 2016

Why I like this song:

They say that revivals happen in chunks of twenty years so of course this decade will see a clutch of acts aiming to recreate the sounds of the 1990s. And that means that someone will try their hand at shoegaze. 
Of course I could joke that someone got sick and tired of waiting for My Bloody Valentine to follow up Loveless so they decided to do it themselves but said follow-up has since emerged.

Still this is a great song in it's own right. Which is impressive as this is an Australian act and I've never known Australia as having it's own breed of shoegaze (given it is a largely UK genre).
Still, nothing wrong with a bit of 'I can do that too' as that's how many acts here get their start.
