Here's a great flowchart that I saved years ago as I was first exploring the genre. https://i.redd.it/rxrtulf0m5631.jpg

The three classic albums of the genre

Loveless - My Bloody Valentine

Souvlaki - Slowdive

Nowhere - Ride

If listening to "Loveless" from My Bloody Valentine, make sure your volume is low, especially if wearing headphones, you've been warned. My ears will never be the same again, thanks. Wow.

The loudest show I've ever been to (and I've been to metal, noise, and other kinds of loud-oriented shows) was MBV, where you could actually feel the sound almost like a wave against your whole body. So I think Kevin Shields would disagree with this advice. :D

This is why I never went to see them in concert. I love this band but I don't want to damage my hearing.

This is a rather different style than the original, but Múm does an amazing cover of Machine Gun: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ii2wxG647ds
