Song Review/ Alt Rock : Blofeld Sands’ ‘Never Been Easy’
Blofeld Sands’ sophomore release, ‘Never Been Easy’, is a rush of feeling. The soundscape is made to flow over you, through you, and even take you away with it. The destination is undecided, but there is a promise of endlessness to it. Imagine that you’re in a surreal desert, so immersively coloured. And a film of pink, purple dust rises and starts serenading you with illustrations, scenic sights, and an overflowing feeling of release. Of joy, of grief, of hardship and success.
The experience of living but with an overarching sense of wonder and gratitude for it all. That’s what the song feels like. Dream pop sensibilities, colors and textures are all whisked by a shoegaze riff wind, ushering them all onward and upwards. And the vocals, both real and ethereal, create an intoxicating dimension within the song. It’s a very pretty song, visually and stylistically enchanting. Listen Now!
