If the music makes you daydream and stare down, it's shoe gaze music.  
 
Nerd rock sounds like someone's idea of a slam when they first see bands like Devo.  Not sure what it really is.

Swervedriver always felt too heavy for me to be shoegazing, I saw them support someone (I can't remember who as I went to see Swervedriver) and left me with tinnitus for days. Slowdive for me was the epitome of shoegazing.
