I'm that kind of hipster who doesn't like subscription based stuff and prefers listening to physical music on hi-fis (just like in LIS), so had to look it up on Youtube too and well, it's indie music by an adolescent girl about a potentially les love affair from what I can gather so yeah. Comments even mention LIS all the time.

Beardy blokes with lumberjack shirts who live in Starbucks, ride fixies and other than coffee only drink hoppy micro-brewed craft ales?

I have yet to hear a song that's any more LIS than this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fOEhxJU-Tt0

I'd imagine this is more the sort of thing Warren or Alyssa might listen to (or Kate??? >_>) but this was stuck in my head for a whole month since I first got LiS and the lyrics are perfect for the aftermath of a Bay ending chosen on some ill-considered utilitarian grounds

[Au milieu d'un monde des ruines]

Listen to and use Google Translate or an alternative (if you don't understand French) for the lyrics of Alcest - Souvenirs d'un Autre Monde. I don't know any other album that's more about nostalgia and time in a LiS kind of way, also purely musically even without considering the lyrics.

Regarding BtS, I used to listen to a lot of shoegaze back in the day, but I find it hard to remember something that makes me feel the exact same way as Daugher does.
Still, I offer these two:
Amesœurs - Les Ruches Malades. Because it has that punkish feeling and it's about resistance to fitting in and rejecting it all, seeing poison for what it is, in an urban setting alas in my interpretation, also considering the album cover art. Also, the band name literally is "soul sisters". Is there anything more LiS than that? If you agree with the sentiment, look up their song La Reine Trayeuse.

Sólstafir - She Destroys Again. The quintessential Rachel Amber song. I imagine Chloe could wallow in her depression while listening (and perhaps pogoing, shaka brah) to this. Listen to or read the lyrics, little explanation needed, I think.

Any thoughts, my frens?

So glad I kept this thread open in a background tab until I had the time to sit down for a listen. "Les ruches malades" is so BtS it's not even funny!

This though:

Qui de son bleu inhabité me cloue à terre;
Plus absent que moi encore

really takes the cake given what I was just thinking about earlier on the BtS forum about how I think Rachel sees Chloe...

I went to check and read up on takes on Rachel including yours on the BtS forum and wow, so much more friendliness towards her than I'm used to, guess I should hang out more often with people who see BtS for what it is instead of demonizing everyone and everything. (^ ^)/

Thanks, I really did not pick them randomly, but reflected for a good while on what I knew and what matched really well. It pleases me even more that a Canadian appreciates one of the French songs. Apart from the urban implications and the language, yeah, I do think this is Chloe and Rachel's mental and musical world, and that it exudes the atmosphere of BtS, and I'm happy someone else agrees and appreciates the same.

I think we could be seeing similar layers in that passage, yes. ^^
