TROYE SIVAN - Bloom LP

Label: Capitol

If Troye Sivan’s debut album, Blue Neighbourhood, represented the gloomy hues that color evokes then his sophomore effort, Bloom, would be sat on the other end of the color wheel glowing with the same intensity of our sun. Contrasting in energy, the albums represent two sides of Sivan as it shows his growth in the industry since his 2015 debut LP. As much as it thrusts forward with the same dominating electronic production that covered Blue Neighbourhood, the maturity in his sound, content, and expression is swiftly identifiable.

Bloom is an ever-charming record from start to finish that only strengthens Sivan’s name and presence as a musician. His lyrical content and instrumentals flow smoothly with his sophomore release, only proving how much charge and strength has been exuded into these 10 tracks and the art he wanted to create. If his first album was a budding of who Troye Sivan is and what he can produce, Bloom is a full-blossoming. Once the last song is played, you’ll not want the record to end.
