As the second contribution to Captured Tracks Shoegaze Archives series, DEARDARKHEAD offers their brilliant take on the genre with "Oceanside: 1991-1993".

The New Jersey band was formed in 1988 with their name taken from an anonymously written Irish poem of the 18th century "Cean Dubh Dilis", about a beautiful girl with black hair.

Their sound perfectly blends post punk guitar experimentalism with a heavy atmospheric dreampop aura, similar to PALE SAINTS and RIDE.

This release is completely remastered, some prev unreleased tracks too. All tracks on vinyl for the first time (CD has 14 tracks, Vinyl has 10 tracks plus DL code for all 14).
