Lush are an English shoegaze / dream-pop band formed in 1987. Core members included Miki Berenyi and Emma Anderson. The band released albums including Spooky, Split and Lovelife, disbanded in 1996 and reunited for a reunion period in 2015–2016.

Formed in 1987 in England. Key members include Miki Berenyi and Emma Anderson. Released the albums Spooky (debut), Split (mid-90s) and Lovelife. Disbanded in 1996; reunited 2015–2016 for reunion shows.

AJM's review of Split treats Lush with playful irony, starting from the homonymy with the cosmetics brand. Split is presented as a mid-90s dream-pop / shoegaze milestone and a more solid follow-up to Spooky. The review highlights Emma Anderson's vocal duality and several standout tracks.

For:Fans of shoegaze and dream-pop, listeners of 1990s alternative rock and Britpop-adjacent music.
