Another month, another release to blow us away….well, most of us hopefully! This month’s winner is Dreamcrush by Mol and here’s a blurb brought to us courtesy of lucazade22!

Whilst Mol’s earlier work drew endless comparisons to Deafheaven, this latest record finds them branching out and carving their own path. It remains blackgaze at heart, but now incorporates a variety of different genres, including elements of prog and dream pop. The end result is an incredibly fun, varied, and engaging album that never fails to surprise. Despite the evolution in their sound, thankfully some things remain the same. Mol has always had an uncanny ability to craft the catchiest, most euphoric choruses in the genre, and this album is no exception. The lead single, “Garland”, is so addictive it should come with a health warning, while “Dissonance” and “Young” boast some irresistible, melodic leads. All of it comes neatly packaged in a 42-minute runtime that never outstays its welcome. The perfect tonic to a bleak and dreary month, Mol have delivered another fantastic album to add to their impressive back catalogue. Just a note to existing fans don’t come into this expecting Mol of the same!
