2011, Captured Tracks
VINYL FORMAT. "Into Black" b/w "Firestarter." This is Blouse's debut 7", and what an opening act it is. These tracks made the blog-rounds with such headspinning quickness, we thought we'd use some descriptions that seemed to sum it up for us:
"Firestarter" is a hazy dream-pop gem that manages to be bright, buoyant, and engaging while still maintaining the same air of detached cool the group displayed on vaguely goth-y A-side "Into Black." Makes sense that they've hooked up with the esteemed Captured Tracks, who will release the excellent Into Black 7" single in the very near future. - Gorilla Vs. Bear
"Into Black" traffics in a warm nostalgia and even warmer synth patterns that made the micro-genre "chillwave" so popular in 2010. The big difference? Blouse's songs have lasting power. - Willamette Week
