Album Review: They Are Gutting a Body of Water, 'LOTTO'

Douglas Dulgarian describes unremarkable food as "Disney bread", a phrase that also applies to music that lacks authenticity, even when it's free.

They Are Gutting a Body of Water's new album LOTTO is a groundbreaking work in modern shoegaze, avoiding the temptation to capitalize on a watered-down version of their sound.

As the most pioneering band in modern shoegaze, they could capitalize on a fantastical, watered-down version of a sound that’s only getting more popular.

Instead of relying on artifice and meaningless poetic lyrics, the band delivers a genuine and astounding album, their first LP for ATO Records in NYC.

Author's summary: They Are Gutting a Body of Water's LOTTO is a genuine shoegaze album.
