While the world became socially distanced in 2020, Hull's post-shoegaze, dream pop, heavy guitar effects quartet bdrmm made the kind of impact with their debut album any young band would dream about. Bedroom was hailed as "a heady, forward-thinking shoe gaze distillation" by Clash magazine, the Guardian proclaimed "one of the underground hits of lockdown", while NME awarded the album five solid stars and called Bedroom nothing less than "a modern day shoe gaze classic." Now signed to Mogwai's Rock Action Records, the band return with I Don't Know, complete with their trademark effects-laden guitars and motorik Neu! grooves but now with added piano, strings, electronica, sampling and the occasional dance beat. Bdrmm fans will not be disappointed and the fans of Radiohead, Ride, Mogwai, The Cure that are yet to discover bdrmm would do well by blessing their ears with I Don't Know.
