This ain't some regular dude, that was brilliant. My guy went "here's 3 chords", okay here's the whole song! lol. Thanks man, this was actually super helpful for someone just getting into shoegaze.

If you could any like dance-punk or post-punk recreations (LCD Soundsystem, Viagra Boys, IDLES, Parquet Courts) that would be sweet!

Thanks mane. Seems super easy. Would be helpful to hear your thoughts on the music theory, my main issue is experimentation. I have to try out notes until I hear it fits in the key, because my knowledge of key structure is nil. If I had that knowledge my writing would be so much better.
