maybe you could categorize "Sing" as shoegazerish..

oh my...complete opposite of shoegazer in my book. baggy all the way!!

the most perfect example of the ultimate shoegazer band, IMHO, is Slowdive.
Some silly brit journalist did a live review of, I believe, Slowdive
(correct me if I'm wrong, anyone) and commented on how when they played they
were all constantly gazing at their shoes...so of course another one of
those ever-so-handy labels was born....
