   Ringo Deathstarr's 2015 effort Pure Mood is another excellent example of how
   to make a modern-age shoegaze album. Pile layers of fuzzy, grungy guitar
   noise on top of sugary tunes sung in breathless tones, add the occasional
   twist, and stir. It's a formula bands have been using since Kevin Shields
   bought his first Jazzmaster, but as on previous albums, RDS show the kind of
   melodic skill and sonic ability here that allow them to leap ahead of the
   pack of shoegaze imitators and wannabes. Along with the raft of songs are
   perfect male/female vocal harmonies and swooning hooks -- the kind of stuff
   they've been doling out for years. The album takes a couple of stylistic left
   turns that are bracing and welcome. "Heavy Metal Suicide" pretty much lives
   up to its title, swaggering darkly with the guitars giving some serious metal
   attitude in the verses. The choruses switch back to gauzier realms, but the
   punch of the guitars helps give the album a boost right out of the gate --
   especially coming as it does after one of the album's dreamier interludes,
   the aptly titled "Dream Again." That song's wispy atmosphere is very 4AD and,
   along with the also very cloud-like and drifty "California Car Collection,"
   shows another side of the band's sound. So does the super poppy "Old Again."
   Diversions aside, the real power of the album is in songs like "Frisbee" and
   "Never" that pummel the listener with guitar noise and giant melodies. There
   are plenty of bands doing roughly the same thing as Ringo Deathstarr, but
   there are few who do it as well as they do. Pure Mood is proof of that.
