Pip Blom have shared their second album on this latest New Music Friday – check it out right here on Live4ever.
As our review has noted, Pip Blom took their cue for the successor to debut album Boat from some likely, and not-so-likely, sources – ‘fragmental memories of live shows, the jabbed vein of pure fuzz pedal rides and, of all things, Britain’s dungeon-like motorway service areas’:
“Most of indie rock’s best female-voiced releases of the last couple of years – think Girl In Red, Snail Mail, Soccer Mommy – have sounded like they were recorded in bedrooms, but Pip Blom travelled a different path towards recording Welcome Break, their second album and the follow up to 2019’s Boat,” it reads.
“Having been forced into two weeks’ quarantine on arrival from their native Holland the quartet – fronted by the singer of the same name and which also features her brother and co-vocalist, Tender – decamped to Big Jelly studios in the less than glamorous Kentish town of Ramsgate.”
