The Ivins – Bloom (2020)

The Ivins are continuing their loud alternative sound with the invigorating ‘Bloom’. Stamping out a modern mix of deep lyricism, musical power and pumping emotion, the single will have you getting down to their groove. The track follows their single ‘Composure’ and blends familiar sonic elements with something that is unique to the band.

Led by brothers Jim and Jack Ivins, the band offers a listening experience that is second to none. Since forming, they have been featured on Fox Sports and ‘Composure’ was featured by several Red Bull athletes. Now they are continuing to inundate your senses with their alternative rock soundscape and send you spiralling into a new sonic experience.



‘Bloom’ has you moving to their groove from the first funky guitar note. The melody only grabs you more as the song progresses and the guitars soar through your chest. In the lower levels are engaging beats that get your head moving while the guitars continue to melodically flow through your senses. As you are drawn to the chorus, there is a swell in the energy of the melody that pulls you further under the band’s spell.

As the melody hooks you and gets you addicted to the band’s sound, the vocals are a delicate touch dancing over the music. There is a wonderful flow to the vocals that enhance the energy of the melody. The slight echo to the vocal performance adds a little something to the deep lyricism of the track. There is a poetic vibe to the lyrics that fill your brain with vivid colours.

The Ivins invigorate you with the groovy melody and deep lyricism of the colourful and infectious ‘Bloom’. The track grabs you with the grooving guitar lines only for the vocals to further enthral you. If you were not a fan of the band’s sound already, this song will firmly hook you and secure their place on your favourite playlist.
