    Don't call it a comeback. Call it a rebirth. [15 Aug 2015, p.51]

    An essential emotional pummelling as well as an aural one.

    This is a collection of tracks that see the potent, unafraid icon that is Carter return to the forefront of British punk and he’s using it as an opportunity to really say something.

    While there is greater subtlety at play than when he was in Gallows, he still sounds at his most thrilling on the more aggressive material. [Oct 2015, p.104]

    Songs on Blossom hit you like a blast of unapologetic, raw, breath of fresh air if that makes any sense. And it just keeps growing on you.Songs on Blossom hit you like a blast of unapologetic, raw, breath of fresh air if that makes any sense. And it just keeps growing on you. Perfect combination of top notch musicianship, massive guitar hooks, not-overly polished song craftsmanship combined with Frank Carters abrasive yet somehow soothingly melodic vocal chops. Also the drummer Memby Jago sounds like Grohl and Brad Wilke had a 500kg demon lovechild. Rage brought me to Gallows who brought me to Pure Love who brought me to the Rattlesnakes. I think I might like this the best. An oh, did I mention I love this band and album? Expand
