    It might feel too in thrall to their heroes at times. ... But Bdrmm's world of noise is so artfully constructed it's hard to not find yourself lost within it. [Aug 2020, p.102]

After Shazzaming the track I instantly fell in love with this bands material (And this is coming from somebody who doesn't follow shoe gaze too closely) The fact that this is the bands debut album is nothing short of amazing.

It's got the right tones and says all the right things but the further into the album I got the more I realised it's a semi decent imitation of the trailblazers of the genres they blend here.
