Following on from the success of their highly acclaimed debut album ‘nothing hurt and everything was beautiful’, Belfast shoegazers Virgins return with the release of their new single 'b l o o m s'. On ‘b l o o m s’, the band redefine their sound while exploring new emotional depths and expanding their sonic palette. Shimmering verses explode into swirling choruses, accented by reverse delays and glide guitar. The euphoria inducing crescendo of fuzz and siren vocals releases the pressure valve of tension cultivated throughout the track. The band worked with acclaimed producer Simon Francis (Kylie Minogue, Ellie Goulding, The Japanese House) to capture the track and for mastering turned to one of shoegaze greats Simon Scott of Slowdive. Virgins trade mark sound doesn't rely on genre tropes but brings a contemporary take to shoegaze, as walls of gargantuan fuzz, euphoric shimmering guitar leads and ethereal vocals guide the listener through the hazy sanctuary.
