Stockport’s favourite sons return with their fifth studio album, produced by Jungle’s J Lloyd and James Skelly and includes a collaborations with CMAT. At just over 30 minute long, it’s a short sweet mood enhancing blast of indie pop - Exactly what Blossoms do so well.

The album is named after a 8 foot fibre glass gorilla was stolen from a Lanarkshire Garden Centre in early 2023, and since then there has been a campaign to locate him, his rear end was recently found, but his frontage is still missing!

STAFF COMMENTS

Barry says: The video for the eponymous single includes both Rick Astles AND Sean Dyche, and the lads nicking a gorilla and making off with it in what appears to be the 60's. Does that help with your decision to buy the album? What about it sounding like a quintessential distillation of Blossoms' key sound into a conceptual curio that's both expansive and warmly familiar.
