On this day in 1991, My Bloody Valentine released 'Loveless' and changed the sound of guitars forever. Layers on layers of fuzz, noise, and beauty that launched a thousand shoegaze dreams.

Today’s Song Suggested by @thestarlingeffect.bsky.social Today’s song was suggested by The Starling Effect. It has the vibe of older shoegaze bands like Ride and I kinda like that. The song is available on all streaming services if you want to check them out #MusicSky #Music youtu.be/Ri4eJUoclpM

Hey Vancouver music peeps! The Starling Effect is in need of a new bass player. Ability to do backing (or even lead) vocals is a huge plus, and skill with other instruments would be a nice bonus.

The Starling Effect @thestarlingeffect.bsky.social · 25/10/2025

Posting again because surely there is someone out there…

This green beauty has been seeing a lot of action behind the scenes at Starling HQ. In fact, this Danelectro baritone is the only guitar John has been playing lately, sparking at least three new embryonic ideas. Of which perhaps one will become a finished song. Such is the way of things.

Vancouver music peeps: we'd love to play another show before the year is out, preferably with likeminded bands on the classic alt/shoegaze/'90s indie side of things, but open to other compatible sounds. Any and all offers or leads much appreciated. Reposts also appreciated. #vancouvermusic #shoegaze

We have some new music out, and while you can find it everywhere you stream or download music, the absolute best place to hear it is on our Bandcamp page. We think it's pretty good. Curious to hear what you think. thestarlingeffect.bandcamp.com/album/pile-o...

When bands apply for festivals etc., their social media numbers can make a difference to whether they get selected or not? With that in mind, it would sure mean a lot to us if everyone who reads this would take a moment to follow us on Instagram. www.instagram.com/thestarlinge...

Hey Bluesky peeps, who are the best accounts to follow for Canadian political news and views? 🇨🇦

A little patio-garden visitor. I think it’s a Harmonia axyridis, but I’m no expert.

"The left went too far" in contemporary U.S. politics is almost always a lie and a very convenient way to rationalize moral failure. For example, "MeToo went too far" replaces "I do not care about sexual violence or its victims and I don't want to have to even feel bad about that"

Hey Vancouver peeps. We won’t be playing this Friday as initially announced. But we already have shows lines up in March and April, so watch for details soon.

The Starling Effect @thestarlingeffect.bsky.social · 26/11/2024

We also play live shows like a real band. Here’s the next one? Anyone got the scoop on KW Studios? We’ve never been!

Given Elon Musk’s track record of inserting himself where he’s not wanted and ruining things that people like, should he be allowed to go to Mars? Because I’m thinking, like, um, fuck no.

Hey! Any Vancouver peeps on here yet? We have a show in January. It will be a good one.

I was just on X for all of five minutes (using my personal, non-band account) and some jerkoff with a Pepe avatar pulled the “pronouns in bio = opinons irrelevant” bullshit. This is why we need Bluesky and it’s also why we need to keep people like that off it.

The Starling Effect @thestarlingeffect.bsky.social · 22/11/2024

Just poked my head in over at X. MAGA crowd arguing that there are no Black Trump cabinet picks because DEI is head and picks are based on merit. Yes, that explains Linda McMahon.

Just throwing this out there…if any of our new band friends here are planning to play in Vancouver, we will happily help you book a show… and then play it with you, of course.

Meanwhile, back on Twitter… Leon is getting Community Noted for retweeting absolutely absurd bullshit…. It’s nice to be here! 🦋
