Minor Movements - Bloom (2019) EN

Minor Movements is undoubtedly one of the most interesting post-rock debuts of the last months. After they just appeared on the blog with their single We Dreamed to Each Other, they are the topic of another post thanks to their debut LP called Bloom.

The project was started as an exposition for the solo works of Nic Brant, but it quickly turned out that nothing makes a project so dynamic as artists with various views on music. But still, their view on post-rock is homogeneous: for the, it's "brilliant, beautiful, moving, inspiring thing to behold, something that can speak to anyone anywhere, a full spectrum of soundscapes that has the power to make the world a little bit smaller". And this approach is so well implemented on the album,

It's started with the familiar sounds of the single after which there's the title track Bloom. Here the Americans showed that they know how to build up tension and leading the audience from the ambient soundscapes up to the ecstatic finish. Those kind of atmospheric compositions is the band's best side. It is only confirmed in the next pieces led by the very loud Clouds of Smoke and A Light Above.
