Wolf Alice's new single 'Bloom Baby Bloom' is music with dirt under its nails and starlight burning bright in its eyes

There's a heartbeat to Wolf Alice's music that has always rattled through the bones. It's felt from the first whispered lyric to the final erupting scream. Delicate one moment and devastating the next, their songs don't play, they pulse, raw noise and rawer emotions swirling in a constant, breaking motion. To listen is to be swept into something alive, wild, and deeply elemental - simultaneously comforting and unsettling, intimate yet immense. Their comeback single 'Bloom Baby Bloom' is all these things, with an order of showmanship and sass on the side.

From their electrifying debut 'My Love Is Cool', Wolf Alice set themselves apart immediately. The record was a declaration of intent. These were torchbearers for those hungry for guitar music with feral, emotional depth. Tracks like 'Giant Peach' captured an explosive intensity, while 'Bros' offered shimmering nostalgia - the stage firmly set for a band that could navigate the extremes.

Their trajectory continued boldly through the dream-soaked defiance and fuck-you-brilliance of 'Visions of a Life.' It was a fearless sophomore album, fierce and uncompromising, blending punk rebellion with ethereal, shoegaze romance. Wolf Alice proved themselves a band unafraid to shape-shift, navigating from the feral scream of 'Yuk Foo' to the delicate, ghostly pull of 'Don't Delete The Kisses' - a statement of its own that stands amongst the very best of any genre, any era.
