Chapterhouse - Breather

[Tezi]

I think he meant the track itself is high quality. Turver, as far as I can tell, is a Scandinavian surname. He was translating from his native tongue to English and got audio and track confused since they are both music related and all. So get off his fucking back. >:l

[HIMITSUGUITAR]

@Tezi True, amazing song and good on 'im for uploading it

[sepitheroth]

way back when, i never thought the quality of the original recording was that good, the live version offical video sounds much better.

[snotmaw]

holy shit this is so good

[HIMITSUGUITAR]

Not high quality audio... but an amazing track

[adrianedbe]

@HIMITSUGUITAR It was high quality in '08

[HIMITSUGUITAR]

@adrianedbe spose!

[TheCowboyJesus]

One of the best shoegazing songs ever.

[howeuth]

[SCREAMorphine]

Sooo beautiful, happy I found this band

[iwalktherain]

[pricklyphlox]

[GenoClown]

Video Length=4:20

[cesarvilcapoma]

feeeling 90tas AMAZING!

[sc0tt10]

I love this song, but it sounds shitloads like In Between Days - The Cure, noticed a few days ago.

[agratton1976]

I love this song

[TheBahnhofskino]

Why is this track in the Ulrich Schnauss mix???

[roothands]

@TheBahnhofskino

It's shoegaze, same general genre as Schnauss' new record

[zreidsnider]

Shoegaze rock just takes you somewhere else, just unbeatable for sure. It gives this kind of effervescent, untouchable desire that can only be satisfied by more and more walls of pschedelia, haha...

[afreijat]

oh my god..... this is what i've been looking for all day long. music like this keep people like me alive.

[yaze6972]

Hello, everybody, when I was young, in my car I listened this cd to go to ski in the alpes to my poor france, thanks, bye.

[awalton75]

PLEEEEEEEASE take me back to these times...just amazing...

[onlydeepandReal]

those drums... wow

[MrReidLynn]

@onlydeepandReal fuckeng ideeit

[sh4dow83]

listening to this makes me wonder about the term "shoegaze". i haven't heard a lot of bands from that genre yet but what i've heard so far was really very calm and fitting the word but this sounds more like somewhat usual, lively rock?

to me, that's not a bad thing, i like lots of rock styles, i'm just wondering about the terminology...

[ChesterAsucka]

@sh4dow83

The British music press—particularly NME and Melody Maker—named this style shoegazing because the musicians in these bands stood relatively still during live performances in a detached, introspective, non-confrontational state, hence the idea that they were gazing at their shoes.[1] The heavy use of effects pedals also contributed to the image of performers looking down at their feet (shoegazing) during concerts.

I think My Bloody Valentine was 1 of the first to be known by the term

[notthere83]

@ChesterAsucka you should give wikipedia at least credit ;P

i didn't know that though... when the term was first explained to me, the guy said it was about the audience being very still and introspective, not the performers.

[ChesterAsucka]

@notthere83

Oh, I figured it was obvious that I got it from somewhere else.

I'm sure that the concert goers end up in the same state as the performers. When I listen to this stuff it takes me to another place entirely. We can call it shoegazing or whatever, but I believe music like Slowdive, My Bloody Valentine, and Ladytron particularly, almost takes your mind away somewhere much further... leaving your body behind in an almost zombie-like trance. Kind of out there but that's how we like it

[crashsite000]

@ChesterAsucka

Actually it was the band Moose that the shoegaze term was used for first. But I guess it doesn't really matter...

[ChesterAsucka]

@crashsite000

I see. Your probably right. No, it's good to know. I did say however that My Bloody Valentine was one of the first though, not THE first. I believe I read that somewhere on Pandora radio.

[Boudosaved]

Shoegaze was the best thing to come out of the 90s. Much more so than grundge.

[Tidpole]

@Boudosaved lots of great music came from bands with the tags Grundge,shoegazers madchester or what ever. I think the manchester bands set the foundations for the early 90's with the help of a few other bands but grundge was just as importantant. P.S. I love the shoegazers aswell and when I say Manchester I don't mean Oasis ack.

[Boudosaved]

@Tidpole I agree with you. I'm not saying grundge, as a whole, sucked. But I happened to drift more towards shoegaze. I appreciated it more.

[bobzechikon]

@Tidpole no wave wave in the 80's

[ELMELO80]

Brilliant Dream-Pop/Shoegaze.

Thanks for the upload.

[montse1350]

[JayRocks311]

[Anokha68]

I was going to fly to London to see the Scala show and then they booked a show in Chicago May 5. I can't wait!!

[SamWicks515]

I honestly cannot wait for Thursday 18th March now, after watching the live version from November.

[sendmenoflowers]

have you seen the live version filmed at the ICA in November - its awesome! go to the channel for fiftyfirstfloorfilms - he is the guy that was filming on the night

[44martika]

yeah, great video, were they really that good? caaaant wait to see them at the scala!!

[micaio2]

noooooooooooooooooooooosssssaa­aaaaaaaaa minha alma liberta com essa musica !!!!!! os pensamentos voam!!, com meus pés sempre plantados no chão.

Caio

[lavishmcronald]

only chapter house song i can get into

[BleGria]

amazing song

amazing band

amazing feelings

[chewbacca4me]

Sadly, there are no other Chapterhouse songs similar to this. Mostly, Chapterhouse are shit, I think. This album was the only one by them that was any good.

[thomasrix]

that is some intense drumming!

[jackanderton]

chords seem to be a, asus4 and a and d for the chorus, if indeed that is the chorus

the riff's not that difficult, just a bit of fiddling around a

[Caleeboy123]

@jackanderton

whoah thanks i was dying to learn the chords! do you happen to know any other chapterhouse chords? i figured out Guilt and April though

[dabobohio2]

makes me wish i was tripping in 91 again

[rhinoconkers]

me to i nice jucey strawberry or 3 or a purple homms

[jackanderton]

can anyone recommend some chapterhouse tracks that are similar to this?

[starphazedboy]

this track makes me want to be 19 in the 90s again :)

[seagullsforever]

I fucking here you mate this brings back so many great hazy memories of the 90s

[555twigg]

cracking posting, looking for it for ages

[Mandumanic]

Blissful exuberance that makes me happy, I've been head over heals for Shoegaze at the moment. whole movement really gifted us with cherised treasured material

[blackcluck]

Poo-gaze

[alejandroberesi]

young spirit songs = shoegaze =)

[Caleeboy123]

what the heck are the chords? i'm so desperate...

[denizm75]

Shoegaze classic...maybe the best album from that time? <3 Chapterhouse <3

[audit22ify]

this is way better than cock party

[lynus111]

And people think Bloc Party are something new.

[masonjarjar]

It just doesn't get much better than this does it? :-)

[human1212]

Shoegaze always makes me feel happy.

[cheezewizzzz]

this song is absolutely beautiful.

[vinyatag]

cross between cure and cocteau twins

[wildenfree]

and also a bit of " Ride" thrown in their for good measure

[vinyatag]

you are right

and the first album of Ride was a peace of Art

[dfresh0114]

Yes, Nowhere is fantastic

[anilomd]

Reminds me of senior year in college....beautiful New Haven, CT.

[nymphLITHUANIAN]

One of the best songs created by them

[audiolab303]

i miss real music like this. The late eighties and early nineties produced some of the best alternative music bands ever. and Chapterhouse is one of them.

[wildenfree]

Never a truer voice spoken. Where has all that inventiveness gone?. Bands just sound to dreary these days.

[TheCenterOfDisease]

@wildenfree gotta look deep ^^ T.p.W.

[ShenmueAtheist]

very very true
