Alison's Halo // Dozen
Underrated's best new music playlist - spoti.fi/2TGMzHK
The Dozen/Calendar single was co-released by the band and Independent Project Records in the early months of 1995 to wonderful national reviews and extensive college radio airplay. The single's beautiful blend of chiming guitar noise and Catherine's breathtaking melodies perked many an ear and fueled the overwhelming desire for the band to load up the van and head out for a successful string of west coast dates.

Listen to it while heartbroken. Listen to it while feeling great. It's the perfect fix for either sides. It's the miracle of falling in love cast into a song.
"Flowers cut down by the dozen Wilting by the window While I'm waiting for you and I In a cancered kiss And all we've adored to find us Sunsets blurred by the way I'm watching With the wonderment I've stolen from time ago And an autumn thought I can't ignore It's leaving Memories kept in the sleep I'm sealing with the antidote I've given to pure intent In the kindest dose I hope your hope is lasting"

It's hard to find music that makes you feel a certain way like this song does.
I remember my mom listen to that song all the time when I was younger
Coming back to this song after idk how many years now, still makes me feel like some kind of 90's witch wandering through a forest on a sunny day.
This song will always have a special place in my heart. First song I listened to on my first acid trip

Pink Floyd for me, but nevertheless this will take you there!
Alison's Halo were (are?) a married couple named Adam and Cate who were part of that whole 'Beautiful Noise Festival' & Independent Project Records scene in Tempe, AZ back in the 90s. I met Adam back in the day. That scene was groups like HodgePodgeLodge, lovesliescrushing, Alison's Halo and my personal favorite Halfstring. The drummer from Halfstring owned the best record store to buy shoegaze, indie, punk and whatnot in that area; it was called Stinkweeds.
Sounds like a beautiful rainy morning (7 AM)

+PrimeM92 I dunno, I think this is more dreampop than shoegaze - which is not a problem. WIth that said, Alison's Halo is good, but not even close to Slowdive or MBV, IMO. I have the impression, though, that the problem here is more about the production than the quality of the musicians.

Danilo Luís Faria The terms Dream Pop and Shoegaze have often been used interchangeably. One could argue that Slowdive, Pale Saints & Lush (and songs like this one) were more ethereal and less heavy/noisy than Ride, MBV, Curve, Swervedriver or Catherine Wheel. On that basis they could be classed as more 'dreampoppy'. However, I think there was always a very strong overlap as plenty of heavier bands were still strongly influenced by The Smiths, The House of Love, The Jesus & Mary Chain etc. and so still had a strong 'noise/indie pop' influence. The way I see it - some shoegaze is heavy, noisy and intense while other songs are more gentle and ethereal. What they all have in common is the extensive use of atmospheric effects units in creating an overall hypnotic and psychedelic sound.

+PrimeM92 I usually see the two terms being used together, shoegaze/dreampop, sometimes with the adition of noisy rock. Thank you for the clarification. I mean it. I will have to agree with you on all that. I've been listening to other shoegaze bands the past weeks, before that I knew only Slowdive, MVB, Ride, and what came before, like Echo and The Bunnyman, Jesus & Maru Chain, Siouxsie, Smiths, etc.
love this song

I discovered this song on the shoegaze box set I downloaded from HDTracks a few months ago. If you love the genre, find yourself a legit undistorted (ironic term, given the genre) version of this song. I just listened to it repeatedly in the car for hours. I think I'm addicted to it.

Sounds like the 7" version. Sometimes I like the warm, crackley sound that comes with vinyl. Or maybe it's just nostalgia.
definitely in the top 10 all time songs i dissociate to
i love this song
Thanks for the post, back then (early 1996) I had this on limited edition 7" single (B-side was "Calendar")... So many flashbacks and memories with 'holy smoke'... Cheers!
this song and video are my ultimate happy place.
