[Here](https://open.spotify.com/playlist/7FmQTfn55pAjjOLSWHk9lj?si=Qj3bLxy_SeqqFCBhvwlZlQ) is Pitchfork's spotify playlist for their top 50 shoegaze albums from a few years back. It has a track for lots of the albums from that map on it, but unsurprisingly leans more towards the indie/alt side even if it has a few Japanese and blackgaze representatives.
