Blossoms

Love songs for people who've already won. Blossoms go full disco-wedding-band here, every track dressed up in confetti and good intentions, and most of the time it works because nobody writes a hook quite like Ogden does. The problem is how safe it all feels, nothing here risks a single awkward moment, it's romance with the edges sanded completely off. Fall Into You is the one moment that actually earns the sentimentality instead of just performing it, Guts and Additional Driver bring some actual texture with that Declan McKenna detour giving the record its only real swerve. Pleasant, polished, and a little too comfortable with itself.
