They started out as a shoegaze pioneer, but one of the more memorable ones. Their albums ''Ferment'' (1992) and ''Chrome'' (1993) are considered both classics. Over the years of their existence, they tried to shrug the "shoegaze" label off of them and just went into writing their own music. This, arguably, was a bad idea for them. They slowly got less and less critically acclaimed, and their commercial success fluctuated.
