loveless started out as a side-project for quentin & gillian, from australian synth-guitar pop-mash-up group genshen ( http://www.genshen.net/ ). loveless ( http://www.loveless.com.au/ ) was formed from a need for Quentin and Gillian to explore their shoegazey yearnings more thoroughly, but with a catch... using vintage keyboards instead of guitar! the duo have claimed to have invented a new style - they call it "electro-gaze"... a minimalist new wave sound with shoegazey stylings. loveless has quickly moved from a kitschy obsession unveiled at parties to being a serious venture playing the hippest venues in their home town of brisbane, and generating a lot of interest. On stage, loveless are an alien landscape of synths, a drum machine, pedals, innumerable leads and two very busy musos! Using vintage gear all their music is played organically with no backtracks or midi accompaniment. http://www.loveless.com.au/ http://www.youtube.com/lovelessvideos
