    Okay so I found this song on this old random mix cd in my school's art studio and I'm absolutely in love with, but I can't fucking figure out who it's by! No matter what lyrics i type into google, nothing is coming up. Can anyone help me identify it?

    -sounds like a cross between My Bloody Valentine and Primal Scream (lots of dischord and distrotion, dreamy/shoegaze sort of feel, words don't start til abou a minute into the song, maybe a dash of Olivia Tremor Contol too)
    -5 minutes and 44 seconds long
    -lyrics start off "the dream of life(?)" i was able to identify words like "today" "dream" "falling" "feel electic lights that shining(?) through my eyes..." "close my eyes" "free" "what is free" etc. etc.

    my screen name for AIM is "notchesinmyspine", so IM if you'd like and i'll send you the song.

    whoever helps me with this is AWESOME, thanks!

    Shoegaze = pure bliss... My Bloody Valentine = Kings of Shoegazing.

    agreed, SonicYouthFan. "Loveless" is incredible.
