Blush - Blush (2021)

It's incredible how many shoegaze/dreamy bands are called Blush (or similar like Blushing or Blush Response) now.  This time it's a debuting band from Singapore whose sophomore EP called, you guessed it, Blush, presents some adorable and catchy noise pop.

The band may be new but the artists were involved in quite a big number of Singapore-based projects, most notably including Sobs. You can hear that they know what they do - the guitars produce a good-quality noise and bring exciting melodies while Soffi Peters' vocals are dreamy and airy, just as they should be. The EP is very short and includes the previous single track Best Friend and two quality noise pop tracks. And just as it is advertised (that "ubiquitous to Blush’s sonics are a crescendo fuzz that’s thick as syrup, and as cathartic as it is cacophonic"), they are very noisy and loud and this loudness transforms into an ethereal bliss in the listeners' minds (especially in the more slowcore-like, album-finishing Suck).
