Marbled Blue & White Vinyl
“I think this is the best thing we've ever done, it’s a proper step up.” It’s immediately clear that Hull band bdrmm have broken new ground on ‘Microtonic’.
“The last album was essentially like a bridge between the two albums,” the band say of
2023’s ‘I Don’t Know’. “With that one we knew what we were trying to do but with this one we've fully cracked it.”
bdrmm’s trademark sound hasn’t disappeared by any means, the band's more guitar-heavy
beginnings a blueprint and influence on many of the groups breaking through in the here and now, a time when shoegaze is enjoying its strongest revival since its inception in the 1980s, but those guitars are now incorporated into a broader, more expansive and varied sonic palette.
