Blanket, an atmospheric rock band hailing from Blackpool, England, weaves ambient soundscapes with the intensity of post-rock and the subtlety of cinematic music. The quartet, known for their expansive and emotive music, began captivating audiences with their debut album "Our Brief Encounters" in 2017, but it was their 2021 release, "Modern Escapism," that fully showcased their dynamic range. Riding the momentum of their nuanced sound, Blanket continues to explore the intricate balance between shoegaze serenity and the peaks of climactic rock in their varied and textured compositions.

Their music can often be described as a sonic journey, enticing listeners to delve into thought-provoking themes paired with immersive audio experiences. Notable recent releases such as "Ceremonia" and "Euphoria" maintain their characteristic blend of melancholic melodies and towering instrumental crescendos, while collaborative pieces like "In Awe," featuring Kadeem France, bring fresh dimensions to their auditory narratives. Even with gripping renditions of well-known tracks, as evidenced in "I Fall Apart" (Cover), Blanket successfully leaves their distinct mark without compromising the integrity of the source material, thus earning a place in the hearts of both critics and fans in the realm of experimental rock.
