“Once you manage to pull away from Bloom’s magnified scenery and consider the record as a whole it’s difficult to think of it as anything other than its makers’ best work so far” – BBC
 
Critically-acclaimed favorites BEACH HOUSE are making their first ever Korean show in January[U1] . With the release of their fourth album, Bloom (Sub-Pop Records) the duo has once again gifted fans with sweet, hypnotic dream pop songs that are simple in arrangement while complex in emotion.
BEACH HOUSE’s sound has stayed consistent over their 6 years of music-making. The only change evident on their new release is the quality of the production and the confidence of the pair, neither of which are a surprise after the glowing reviews they’ve received since their formation. These positive reviews have only gotten better and better with each release. Their debut album was #16 on Pitchfork’s Best Album List in 2006, with each proceeding album making its way onto the list as well. The band has drawn comparisons to Fleetwood Mac, and Legrand’s husky vocals have been likened to those of Nico as well as Kendra Smith of Opal.
The sound of their newest, Bloom, is a mix of steady, programmed drums, Alex Scally’s slide guitar, and Victoria Legrand’s deep, ethereal voice meshing together perfectly. The result is an hour of beautiful, nostalgia-inducing melodies. The Baltimore-based duo BEACH HOUSE has a knack for writing songs that can[U2] “communicate indescribable emotions” (Chicagoist). Legrand croons about longing, the search for happiness, and broken hearts. Of the album’s title, Legrand has said that, \“’Bloom’ is a journey. For me, it is about the irreplaceable power of imagination as it relates to the intense experience of living. A bloom is only temporary… a fleeting vision of life in all of its intensity and color, beautiful even if only for a moment”
