Hailing from Loughborough & not even been together a year yet, The Voom Blooms are another My Space success story, within a matter of months, they’ve landed a record deal with Fiction / Polydor, and secured a slot on the Club NME Tour. So, what’s all the fuss about? Well, when you first hear ‘Politics & Cigarettes’, you know The Voom Blooms take their music very seriously, as beautifully strummed sweet riffs dance over military snare rolls, driving the powerful vocal, which leads to explosive & euphoric choruses, that The Waterboys would be proud of. On the flip youâll find another intense but slightly goth number ‘Thoughts Of Rena’, which is a swirling mass of The Cure & U2 influences. Hurragh! Another new outfit to look out for.
