Bloomshock - Entheogen
(Self-Released 2014)
Since late 2013, New Jersey
based one-man-band Bloomshock has
published a staggering total of 52 releases, ten of them full-length albums.
Out of all current acts emulating the shambolic sound of early 90’s DIY, Bloomshock’s impression is easily the
most accurate, employing a blunt, fuzzy guitar tone and an appreciation for early rock
‘n roll riffage to drive his prolific output. Entheogen is the best of his recent output of singles, its title
track a twangy, infectious tune that recalls the dulcet pop energy of early
twee. Imagine some c86 shimmer blended into Sebadoh's lo-fi snarl. It’s accompanied by two b-sides: a surfy instrumental jam that channels Dinosaur Jr’s “The Lung” and a cover of
barlow*’s fuzz-gaze hit “In The
Air”. Check it out below.
