bdrmm - I Don't Know

Indiepop post-punk shoegaze

bdrmm - I Don't Know

BDRMM's second album has been crafted with care and attention to detail, blending their shoegaze influences with indie leanings. The album starts with "Alps," an opening track that doesn't reveal too much about what's to come. The subdued tone and spacey vocals invite listeners to continue with the album to understand it fully.

"We Fall Apart" brings a drop in tone, injecting a sense of melancholy and unease into the album. It's a track full of gloom and grit, changing the pace and signaling a shift in the album's narrative.

"Pulling Stitches" stands out with a jarring guitar opening and harsh qualities throughout, juxtaposing the indie tendencies of the album. It appears to be the most unique track, setting a different tone.

"I Don’t Know" is described as having a striking thinness at points. However, it's suggested that this is a strength rather than a weakness, contributing to the track's allure once listeners adjust to it.

Overall, the album doesn't push a singular message, instead offering nuance in each track. This creates a pleasant and easy listening experience, highlighting the band's skill in layering different sounds and emotions.
