OK, French shoegaze. That's right. You read it correctly the first time. "Mary Goes Round" are a French band and this single is most definitely shoegaze. Now if that puts you off, believing that the French language is far too poetic a tongue to translate well to the shoegaze format, well " Mary's Garden " is sung in English. Indeed, it would be kind of hard to have sung this in any other language. The sound is thick and dreamy at the same time, with a strong melody and a dependable rhythm.
So how does French shoegaze compare with other shoegaze? In truth, there is not going to be much difference. There is nothing here which makes it stand out, but nothing here which makes you want to turn it off. Oh, and the fact that it is French makes absolutely no difference at all.
