Tokyo Shoegazer is a Japanese shoegaze band formed in 2010, centered around Hiroshi Sasabuchi, formerly of Plastic Tree. They fuse roaring distorted guitars with sweet, ethereal melodies, and are highly regarded both domestically and internationally as one of Japan's leading shoegaze acts.
Their debut album, Crystallize, was released in 2011. The band contributed two tracks to the My Bloody Valentine tribute album Yellow Loveless, those being covers of "Only Shallow" and "I Only Said".
