Thomas Cohen releases his new album, Bloom Forever, though Stolen Recordings. It's a subtle LP which wonderfully illustrates his diversity as a strong force in the Indie market.

The album contains 9 songs (44 min, 15 sec) and while it is an album that you'll get a kick out of from the first play through, it's certainly a release that rewards the listener the more times they listen to it. In fact I have to admit that every time I listen to it I change my mind on which is my favourite track.

With lazy, carefree sounding vocals there's also something hypnotic about tracks like 'Country Home' and 'New Morning Comes'.

This is an incredibly diverse album that's well worth investing in - you'll get months, possibly years, of enjoyment out of it.
