Our Take

Manchester indie-pop act BLOSSOMS have returned with their Deluxe Edition of "Ribbon Around The Bomb," and it's safe to say that this album is exploding with charm and creativity. From the moment you press play, you're greeted with a cacophony of infectious melodies and witty lyrics that make you feel like you're sipping a cuppa tea with a cheeky grin on your face.

The band effortlessly weaves together elements of 80s synth-pop, 90s Britpop, and modern indie sensibilities to create a sound that's both nostalgic and fresh. Tracks like "Doctor My Dilemma" and "Superstar" showcase lead singer Tom Ogden's distinctive vocals, which effortlessly glide over shimmering guitar riffs and catchy hooks.

But the real standout on this album is the Deluxe Edition's bonus tracks, which offer a peek into the band's experimental side. From the dreamy ballad "Paris Skyline" to the funky groove of "Discotheque," BLOSSOMS prove that they're more than just your average indie band.

Overall, "Ribbon Around The Bomb" is a delightful experience that will leave you grooving and grinning from start to finish. So grab a pint, put on your dancing shoes, and get ready to be blown away by BLOSSOMS' infectious energy and undeniable charm. Cheers!
