Whirr is an American shoegaze band from the San Francisco Bay Area. The group formed in 2010, originally as Whirl, but had to legally change its name after a woman performing acoustic covers of Black Sabbath songs trademarked the name and threatened a lawsuit. Whirr's shoegaze sound is often compared to My Bloody Valentine and Slowdive.:format(jpeg):mode_rgb():quality(90)/discogs-images/A-2462488-1338197743-5783.jpeg.jpg){kind=link}
