s o f t e r is the second single from the upcoming album by the consistently emerging shoegaze band, Virgins, exhibiting an indie psychedelic twist with heavy, melodic layers of fuzz and reverb complemented by ethereal vocals. Once again, the band showcases their inspiration from nineties' alternative, utilized in a wonderful, creative manner.
Virgins' highly anticipated debut album, nothing hurt and everything was beautiful, is set for release on April 11th, 2024, via Blowtorch Records.
Coming from Belfast, Ireland, the rising shoegaze ensemble features Rebecca Dow on vocals, Michael Smyth and David Sloan on guitars, James Foy on drums, and Brendy McCann on bass.
s o f t e r is one of the band's most memorable offerings to date, and displays a more lively or even danceable facet of their sound, lifting from the forefronts of shoegaze and dreampop while presenting a sound which is refreshingly new and promising.
