Blushing are an Austin, TX based band consisting of two married couples. The band's latest single, "Tamagotchi," is probably closest to being dream pop, but it's quite a bit more than that. Sure, the song has that dreamy sound that washes over you with reverb, but there's also a much stronger bite to the guitars than you normally get in dream pop. It's not quite grunge, but fairly close. It's more of that early-mid-90's post grunge sound as mainstream alt-rock was edging into more of a power pop or bubblegrunge sound. Blushing's latest is an incredibly infectious song that fans of 90's alt-rock are going to adore.
You can watch the video for "Tamagotchi" below. Sugarcoat is out May 3 on Kanine Records, and is available for pre-order here. For more on Blushing, check out the artist's website. Upcoming tour dates are below the video.
